Two pots are identical except that the flat bottom of one is aluminum, whereas that of the other is copper. Water in these pots

is boiling away at 100.0 ˚C at the same rate. The temperature of the heating element on which the aluminum bottom is sitting is 161 ˚C. Assume that heat enters the water only through the bottoms of the pots and find the temperature of the heating element on which the copper bottom rests.

Answer:

Explanation:

Rate of flow of heat = K X ( t₂ -t₁ ) xA/L

K is thermal conductivity , t₂ -t₁ = temperature difference , A is area of surface and L is thickness of separating medium

In the given case only K and t₂ are different , otherwise all others are equal.

So

Since rate of heat flow are equal

K₁ X ( t-100) = K₂ X ( 161 - 100 )

t is temperature of source of heat near copper bottom.

K₁ and K₂ are thermal conductivity of copper and aluminium.

K₁ / K₂ = 61/( t - 100)

385/205 = 61/t -100

385t -38500 = 12505

385t = 51005

t = 133.77 C.

Where do you find electromagnetic waves on earth? what are some everyday uses?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Radio waves are used for communications and radar. Microwaves are used to cook your food. Infrared waves are used in remote controls and are emitted from all warm objects, allowing them to be used to create heat-sensitive cameras.

Explanation:

Basically electromagnetic waves can be found in your everyday life.

Which type of reasoning relies on collection of evidence to make a generalization
padilas [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure the answer would be deductive reasoning. Deductive reasoning relies on making logical premises and basing a conclusion around those premises. It does not rely on making inferences and then assuming those inferences to be true.

Modern telescopes are capable of seeing bright galaxies up to about
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Modern telescopes are capable of seeing bright galaxies up to about 10000 millions light years away

Explanation:

A telescope is a tool that astronomers use to see faraway objects. Most telescopes work by using curved mirrors to gather and focus light from the night sky. The bigger the mirrors or lenses, the more light the telescope can gather.

Modern telescopes gather information from the electromagnetic spectrum far beyond the range of visible light.

The farthest bright galaxies, that the modern telescope is capable of seeing is 10000 millions light years away.

Facts about light years
Anton [14]
 A light-year is how astronomers measure distance in space.
-Light can travel 300,000 kilometres in one seconds!
Light year is the distance that light travel can travel in one year.
-Light can also travel 9,00,000,000,000 kilometers.
-One light is about 10 trillion km.
-Almost 300 years ago ,a Danish scientist named olaus roemer,was the fist man to estimate the distance light travels in a year -and using that he figure out the approximate speed of light!
