A person is standing outdoors in the shade where the temperature is 17 °C. (a) What is the radiant energy absorbed per second by

his head when it is covered with hair? The surface area of the hair (assumed to be flat) is 140 cm2 and its emissivity is 0.87. (b) What would be the radiant energy absorbed per second by the same person if he were bald and the emissivity of his head were 0.68?

Answer:

a) 4.9W b) 3.82W

Explanation:

Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation formulae:

Q/t (W) = sigma* e*A*T^4

Sigma = 5.67*10^-8 j/sm^2K^4 (Stefano Boltzmann constant)

e = emissivity

T = absolute temperature in kelvin and A = area in m^2

a) Q/t = 140/10000(m^2) * 0.87* 5.67* 10^-8* (290^4) = 4.9W

b) without hair the

Q/t = 140/ 10000(m^2) *0.68* 5.67* 10^-8* (290^4)

= 3.82W

What force is necessary to accelerate a 2500 kg care from rest to 20 m/s over 10 seconds?
EleoNora [17]
Force = mass x acceleration
force = 2500kg x (20m/s / 10m/s)
force = 2500kg x 2m/s^2
force = 5000kg m/s^2 = 5kN

i hope this is right (^^)

Estimate the moment of inertia of a bicycle wheel 66 cm in diameter. The rim and tire have a combined mass of 1.2 Kg
Fed [463]
<span>For a point mass the moment of inertia is just the mass times the square of perpendicular distance to the rotation axis, I = mr^2. That point mass relationship becomes the basis for all other moments of inertia since any object can be built up from a collection of point masses. So the I = (1.2 kg)(0.66m/2)^2 = 0.1307 kg m2</span>

How is electrolysis used in order to prevent materials from corrosion or rusting?​
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

We use electrolysis to prevent a material from rusting,

The metal forms a coating around the material and hence prevents any contact between the material and the environment

This process also gives us the physical strength of the material and the aesthetic properties of the coated metal

the metal commonly used to coat the object is Zinc and the process is called galvanisation
