A room has a wall with an R value of 18 F sq.ft. hr/BTU. The room is 15 feet long and 11 feet wide with walls that are 9 ft high

. On a particular day the average outside temperature is 40 degrees F. How much heat is transferred through the walls on that day (in BTUs)?

Answer:

The heat transferred through the wall that day is  13728 BTUs

Explanation:

Here, we have the area of the wall given as

Area of wall = 2 × Length × Height + 2 × Width × Height

Length = 15 feet

Width = 11 Feet and

Height = 9 feet

Therefore, the area = 2×15×9 + 2×11×9 = 468 ft²

Temperature difference is given by

Average outside temperature - Wall temperature = 40 - 18 = 22 °F

Therefore the heat transferred through the wall that day (24 hours) at 18 sq.ft. hr/BTU is given by;

468 × 22 × 24/18 = 13728 = 13728 BTUs.

An upright object 2.80 cm tall is placed 16.0 cm away from the vertex of a concave mirror with a center of curvature of 24.0 cm.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

f = 12 cm

Explanation:

<u>Center of Curvature</u>:

The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of  mirror.

<u>The Radius of Curvature</u>:

The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of  mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.

<u>Focal Length</u>:

The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.

The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

f = \frac{R}{2}

where,

f = focal length = ?

R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm

Therefore,

f = \frac{24\ cm}{2}

<u>f = 12 cm</u>
