Answer:

Explanation:

The weight is acting downwards where as the buoyant force acting upwards (opposite) direction with equal amount of force. so the opposite forces cancel out each other (because of the force amount being equal) and no net force is acting on the object.

Hope i have helped you

Thanks.

Chapter 16, Problem 63. A person is standing in a room at 18 ◦C. The exposed surface area and skin temperature of the person are

Juliette [100K]

Answer: $Q=248.011 W$

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of Room $T_{\infty }=18^{\circ}\approx 291 K$

Area of Person $A=1.7 m^2$

Temperature of skin $T=32^{\circ}\approx 305 K$

Heat transfer coefficient $h=5 W/m^2.k$

Emissivity of the skin and clothes $\epsilon =0.9$

$\Delta T=32-18=14^{\circ}$

Total rate of heat transfer=heat Transfer due to Radiation +heat transfer through convection

Heat transfer due radiation $Q_1=\epsilon \sigma A(T^4-T_{\infty }^4 )$

where $\sigma =stefan-boltzman\ constant$

$Q_1=0.9\times 5.687\times 10^{-8}\times 1.7\times (305^4-291^4)$

$Q_1=129.01 W$

Heat Transfer due to convection is given by

$Q_2=hA(\Delta T)$

$Q_2=5\times 1.7\times 14=119 W$

$Q=Q_1+Q_2$

$Q=129.01+119=248.011 W$

The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to

Mashutka [201]

<span>The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to the heating of the resistance in the filament of the light bulb. In fact, the power dissipated in a resistor is given by
</span> $P=I^2 R$
<span>where I is the current and R the resistance. The larger the resistance or the current in the resistor, the larger the power dissipated. Due to this dissipation of power, the temperature of the filament becomes very high, and the resistance becomes incandescent, emitting light.</span>

Given that ethylene has a λmax of 175nm, butadiene has a λmax of 220nm, and 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm, what is

Vika [28.1K]

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

Ethylene has a λmax of 175nm.

Butadiene has a λmax of 220nm.

2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm.

1,3,5-hexatriene has a λmax of 258nm.

Woodward's rules, sometimes known as Woodward-Fieser rules (after Louis Fieser) and named after Robert Burns Woodward, are a number of sets of empirically developed principles that aim to forecast the wavelength of the absorption maximum (max) in an ultraviolet-visible spectrum of a certain molecule.

By using the Woodward Fieser rule,

R- (Alkyl Group) .... +5 nm = 5 × 2 = 10

RO- (Alkoxy Group) .. +6 = 6 × 2 = 12

Adding 22nm to the λmax of 1,3,5-hexatriene as it has 2 alkyl groups and 2 alkoxy groups to form 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene.

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.
