A horizontal pipe 15 cm in diameter and 4 m long is buried in the earth at a depth of 20 cm. The pipe-wall temperature is 75 deg

ree C and the earth surface temperature is 5 degree C. Assuming that the thermal conductivity of the earth is 0.8W/m. degree C. Calculate the heat lost by the pipe. What is the heat lost if the pipe was buried at a depth of 180 cm?

Explanation:

The given data for case (1) is as follows.

  h = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Assuming that a rectangular slab is placed above the pipe and we will calculate the heat transfer as follows.

              Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

  where,    A = area

                  L = length

                  k = thermal conductivity = 0.8 W/m

             \Delta T = change in temperature.

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

            Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

                = 0.8 W/m \times (4 m \times 0.15 m) \frac{75 - 5}{0.2}

                = 168 W

For case (2), h = 180 cm = 1.8 m

Therefore, heat lost will be calculated as follows.

                       Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

                           = 0.8 W/m \times (4 m \times 0.15 m) \frac{75 - 5}{1.8}

                           = 18.67 W

Thus, we can conclude that 18.67 W heat lost if the pipe was buried at a depth of 180 cm.

1. __ Fe +_ Cl → __FeCl3
Temka [501]

Answer:

2Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Explanation:

Fe + Cl2 —> FeCl3

There are 3atoms of Cl on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side. Therefore, to balance Cl put 2 in front of FeCl3 and put 3 in front of Cl2 as shown below:

Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Now, we see clearly that there are 2 atoms of Fe on the right side and 1 on the left side. This can be balanced by putting 2 in front of Fe as shown below:

2Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Now the equation is balanced.

Which is not a reason why mass of an atom is expressed in atomic mass units rather than in grams?
Tasya [4]
What are your answer choices? Scientists express the weight in AMU’s so that they can easily think about the weight of the atom. If it is expressed in grams, they’re constantly dealing with a weight that’s around 10^-24 grams, which is hard to deal with.

Which describes reproducibility
Leya [2.2K]
Reproducibility is a major principle of the scientific method. It means that a result obtained by an experiment or observational study should be achieved again with a high degree of agreement when the study is replicated with the same methodology by different researchers.
