It is called surface tension it is the elastic personality of some liquids as they pull together to take up as little surface area as possible. the water molecules would rather stay together than be pulled apart<span />

Four power transistors, each dissipating 12 W, are mounted on a thin vertical aluminum plate 22 cm 3 22 cm in size. The heat gen

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The temperature of the Aluminium plate 44.84⁰C

Explanation:

Number of transistors = 4

Since the heat dissipated by each transistor is 12W

Total heat dissipated, Q = 4 * 12 = 48 W

Q = 48 W

Cross sectional Area of the Aluminium plate, A = 2(l * b)

l = Length of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

b = width of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

A =2( 0.22 * 0.22 )

A = 0.0968 m²

From the heat balance equation, Q = hAΔT

h = 25 W/m²·K

A = 0.0968 m²

ΔT = T - T(air)

T(air) = 25°C

ΔT = T - 25°C

Q = 25 * 0.0968 * ( T - 25)

Q = 2.42 (T - 25)

Substitute Q = 48 into the equation above

48 = 2.42 (T - 25)

T - 25 = 19.84

T = 25 + 19.84

T = 44.84 ⁰C

Find the ratio of the new/old periods of a pendulum if the pendulum were transported from earth to the moon, where the accelerat

vichka [17]

The period of a pendulum is given by
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.

We can write down the ratio between the period of the pendulum on the Moon and on Earth by using this formula, and we find:
$\frac{T_m}{T_e} = \frac{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_m} } }{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_e} } }= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }$
where the labels m and e refer to "Moon" and "Earth".

Since the gravitational acceleration on Earth is $g_e = 9.81 m/s^2$ while on the Moon is $g_m=1.63 m/s^2$ , the ratio between the period on the Moon and on Earth is
$\frac{T_m}{T_e}= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{9.81 m/s^2}{1.63 m/s^2} }=2.45$

When vibrational motion in an object increases, which is a true statement?

ss7ja [257]

Hello friend!!

We know that kinetic energy is the energy possessed due to the motion of the object. And we know if the object is in a fast motion then the temperature would be high, whereas if the object is slow in motion then it will have lower temperature. So we know that the kinetic energy is indirectly related to temperature.From our knowledge we can conclude that HIGHER THE TEMPERATURE, HIGHER THE KINETIC ENERGY and LOWER THE TEMPERATURE, LOWER THE KINETIC ENERGY.
Hence, the answer to your question here is,a.kinetic energy, temperature, and thermal energy increase.
Hope it helps!!All the best!!
