The interior space of large box is kept at 30 C. The walls of the box are 3 m high and have a ‘sandwich’ construction consisting

White raven [17]

Answer:

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}$

$T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C$ & $T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given:

interior temperature of box, $T_i=30^{\circ}C$

height of the walls of box, $h=3\ m$

thickness of each layer of bi-layered plywood, $x_p=1.25\ cm=0.0125\ m$

thermal conductivity of plywood, $k_p=0.104\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}$

thickness of sandwiched Styrofoam, $x_s=5\ cm=0.05\ m$

thermal conductivity of Styrofoam, $k_s=0.04\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}$

exterior temperature, $T_o=0^{\circ}C$

<u>From the Fourier's law of conduction:</u>

$\dot Q=\frac{dT}{(\frac{x}{kA}) }$

$\dot Q=\frac{dT}{R_{th} }$ ....................................(1)

<u>Now calculating the equivalent thermal resistance for conductivity using electrical analogy:</u>

$R_{th}=R_p+R_s+R_p$

$R_{th}=\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}+\frac{x_s}{k_s.A}+\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}$

$R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{x_p}{k_p}+\frac{x_s}{k_s}+\frac{x_p}{k_p})$

$R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{0.0125}{0.104}+\frac{0.05}{0.04}+\frac{0.0125}{0.104})$

$R_{th}=\frac{1.4904}{A}$ .....................(2)

Putting the value from (2) into (1):

$\dot Q=\frac{30-0}{\frac{1.4904}{A} }$

$\dot Q=\frac{30\ A}{1.4904}$

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}$ is the heat per unit area of the wall.

The heat flux remains constant because the area is constant.

<u>For plywood-Styrofoam interface from inside:</u>

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_p.\frac{T_i-T_1}{x_p}$

$20.129=0.104\times \frac{30-T_1}{0.0125}$

$T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C$

&<u>For Styrofoam-plywood interface from inside:</u>

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_s.\frac{T_1-T_2}{x_s}$

$20.129=0.04\times \frac{27.58-T_2}{0.05}$

$T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C$

What is the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water 10m high<br>(p=1000kg/m3 and g=10m/s)

alexira [117]

Height (h) = 10 m
Density (ρ) = 1000 Kg/m^3
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s^2
We know, pressure in a fluid = hρg
Therefore, the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water
= hρg
= (10 × 1000 × 10) Pa
= 100000 Pa

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>1000</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>Pa</u>

Hope you could understand.

azamat

Answer: <u>Trough </u> can lift the 403,342 ton pioneering spirit crane vessel 10 meters in 30 seconds as if it was a cork. This about 36 GJ if work and 1 GW of power.

Explanation:

Why trough?

Trough is the correct answer because<u> pioneering scale usually abide only on trough not on the other given options</u>. A long , narrow depression between the waves or ridges is known as a trough. The lower point in the period is the trough.

<u>Speed -:</u> Speed is the distance per unit of time that a body moves. It's a quantity scaler that has just magnitude.
<u>Wave energy -: </u>The transmission and capture of energy by ocean surface waves is wave energy (or wave power). The energy collected is then used for all sorts of useful work, including the generation of electricity, water desalination, and water pumping.
<u>Crest -</u>: A crest point within a cycle on a wave with the highest value of upward displacement. A crest is a point on a surface wave where the medium's displacement is at its height.
<u>Amplitude -:</u> The maximum displacement or distance measured from its equilibrium position, moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave, is called amplitude. It is equal to half of the vibration path's length.
<u>Period-</u>: The duration T is the time needed to pass a given point for one complete cycle of vibration. The wave length decreases as the frequency of a wave increases.
<u>Wavelength-:</u> The distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave can be described as the wavelength. The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength. This implies that the longer the wavelength, the smaller the frequency. Similarly, the shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency would be.
<u>Frequency</u> -: Frequency defines the number of waves in a given amount of time that travel through a fixed location. In the Hertz unit, frequency is normally measured.
<u>Information</u> -: A piece of data is a basic fact about the identity or properties of an object, i.e. a portion of its example.
<u>Milli -</u>: Milli is known as a merged form meaning 'thousand' (millipede) used in the metric system for unit names equal to one thousandth of the base unit (millimeter) given.

Hence , the answer is <u>TROUGH.</u>

Ksenya-84 [330]

Explanation:

Typically, business software technologies are complex, and software strenuous. Business software applications are also often upgraded for changes in business goals or procedures. Real-time systems usually require a lot of hardware components that are quite difficult to change and cannot be upgraded Usually, actual-time safety critical systems that required to be built based on well-planned processes.
