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.

A 2100 g block is pushed by an external force against a spring (with a 22 N/cm spring constant) until the spring is compressed b
Vilka [71]

Answer:

6.5e-4 m

Explanation:

We need to solve this question using law of conservation of energy

Energy at the bottom of the incline= energy at the point where the block will stop

Therefore, Energy at the bottom of the incline consists of the potential energy stored in spring and gravitational potential energy=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +PE1

Energy at the point where the block will stop consists of only gravitational potential energy=PE2

Hence from Energy at the bottom of the incline= energy at the point where the block will stop

⇒\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +PE1=PE2

⇒PE2-PE1=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Also PE2-PE2=mgh

where m is the mass of block

g is acceleration due to gravity=9.8 m/s

h is the difference in height between two positions

⇒mgh=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Given m=2100kg

k=22N/cm=2200N/m

x=11cm=0.11 m

∴2100*9.8*h=\frac{1}{2}*2200*0.11^{2}

⇒20580*h=13.31

⇒h=\frac{13.31}{20580}

⇒h=0.0006467m=6.5e-4

If the back of the truck is 1.3 m above the ground and the ramp is inclined at 22 ∘ , how much time do the workers have to get t
solong [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Assume that
(a) The piano rolls down on frictionless wheels,
(b) Wind resistance is negligible.

The distance along the ramp is
d = (1.3 m)/sin(22°) = 3.4703 m

The component of the piano's weight along the ramp is
mg sin(22°)
If the acceleration down the ramp is a, then
ma = mg sin(22°)
a = g sin(22°) = (9.8 m/s²) sin(22°) = 3.671 m/s²

The time, t, to travel down the ramp from rest is given by
(3.4703 m) = 0.5*(3.671 m/s²)*(t s)²
t² = 3.4703/1.8355 = 1.8907
t = 1.375 s

Answer: 1.375 s
