One method that is used to grow nanowires (nanotubes with solid cores) is to initially deposit a small droplet of a liquid catal

yst onto a flat surface. The surface and catalyst are heated and simultaneously exposed to a higher-temperature, low-pressure gas that contains a mixture of chemical species from which the nanowire is to be formed. The catalytic liquid slowly absorbs the species from the gas through its top surface and converts these to a solid material that is deposited onto the underlying liquid-solid interface, resulting in construction of the nanowire. The liquid catalyst remains suspended at the tip of the nanowire. Consider the growth of a 15-nm-diameter silicon carbide nanowire onto a silicon carbide sururface. The surface is maintained at a temperature of Ts = 2400 K and the particular liquid catalyst that is used must be maintained in the range 2400 K ≤ Tc ≤ 3000 K to perform its function. Determine the maximum length of a nanowire that may be grown for conditions characterized by h = 105 W/m2.K and T[infinity] = 8000 KT. Assume properties of the nanowire are the same as for bulk silicon carbide.

Answer: maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm

Explanation:

 

From the table of 'Thermo physical properties of selected nonmetallic solids at At T = 1500 K

Thermal conductivity of silicon carbide k = 30 W/m.K

Diameter of silicon carbide nanowire, D = 15 x 10⁻⁹ m  

lets consider the equation for the value of m

m = ( (hP/kAc)^1/2 )  = ( (4h/kD)^1/2 )  

m =  ( ((4 × 10⁵)/(30×15×10⁻⁹ ))^1/2 ) = 942809.04    

now lets find the value of h/mk    

h/mk = 10⁵ / ( 942809.04 × 30) =  0.00353

lets consider the value θ/θb by using the equation

θ/θb = (T - T∞) / (T - T∞)

θ/θb =  (3000 - 8000) / (2400 - 8000)

= 0.893

the temperature distribution at steady-state is expressed as;

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - x) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - x)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - L) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - L)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ 1 ]  / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

so we substitute

0.893 =  [ 1 ]  / [cosh (942809.04 × L) +  (0.00353) sinh (942809.04 × L)]

L = 510 × 10⁻⁹m

L = 510 nm

therefore maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm

An aluminium alloy tube has a length of 750 mm at a temperature of 223°C. What will be its length at 23°C if its coefficient of
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Final length= 746.175 mm

Explanation:

Given that Length of aluminium at 223 C is 750 mm.As we know that when temperature of material increases or decreases then dimensions of material also increases or decreases respectively with temperature.

Here temperature of aluminium decreases so the final length of aluminium decreases .

As we know that

\Delta L=L\alpha\Delta T

Now by putting the values

\Delta L=750\times \25.5\times 10^{-6}\times 200

ΔL=3.82 mm

So final length =750-3.82 mm

Final length= 746.175 mm

A water-filled manometer is used to measure the pressure in an air-filled tank. One leg of the manometer is open to atmosphere.
ddd [48]

Answer:

P = 150.335\,kPa (Option B)

Explanation:

The absolute pressure of the air-filled tank is:

P = 101.3\,kPa + \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (5\,m)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,kPa}{1000\,Pa} \right)

P = 150.335\,kPa
