Answer:

Yes the statement is true.

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate at which energy is transferred by an object on account of work done.

Mathematically

$Power=\frac{dE}{dt}$

An object that does work loses it's energy while an object on which work is done gains energy.

Power is often dependent on the type of energy transfer thus we have Electrical Power, Mechanical Power depending on the type of energy involved in the system.

Concept of power is important since it gives us a measure of how fast energy can be derived to given to a system.

For a steel alloy it has been determined that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 h duration will raise the carbon concentration

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

135 hour

Explanation:

It is given that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 hour will raise the carbon concentration by 0.35 wt% at a point of 2 mm from the surface.

We have to find the time necessary to achieve the same concentration at a 6 mm position.

we know that $\frac{x_1^2}{Dt}=constant$ where x is distance and t is time .As the temperature is constant so D will be also constant

So $\frac{x_1^2}{t}=constant$

then $\frac{x_1^2}{t_1}=\frac{x_2^2}{t_2}$ we have given $x_1=2 mm\ ,t_1=15 hour\ ,x_2=6\ mm$ and we have to find $t_2$ putting all these value in equation
