<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. If the temperature of a solid is increased, the solid expands and its volume increases.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>As temperature increases heat energy is applied to the parts of the solid, thus causing a higher vibration and movement of molecules.</u>
  • <em><u>This causes the molecules to push against one another and thus the overall volume of the solid increases.  The solid may then change state to a liquid state.</u></em>
  • Thus, an increase in temperature, causes the solid to expand and thus an increase in volume.

Water at 20°C flows by gravity through a smooth pipe from one reservoir to a lower one. The elevation difference is 60 m. The pi
Serga [27]

Answer:

Flow Rate = 80 m^3 /hours  (Rounded to the nearest whole number)

Explanation:

Given

  • Hf = head loss
  • f = friction factor
  • L = Length of the pipe = 360 m
  • V = Flow velocity, m/s
  • D = Pipe diameter = 0.12 m
  • g = Gravitational acceleration, m/s^2
  • Re = Reynolds's Number
  • rho = Density =998 kg/m^3
  • μ = Viscosity = 0.001 kg/m-s
  • Z = Elevation Difference = 60 m

Calculations

Moody friction loss in the pipe = Hf = (f*L*V^2)/(2*D*g)

The energy equation for this system will be,

Hp = Z + Hf

The other three equations to solve the above equations are:

Re = (rho*V*D)/ μ

Flow Rate, Q = V*(pi/4)*D^2

Power = 15000 W = rho*g*Q*Hp

1/f^0.5 = 2*log ((Re*f^0.5)/2.51)

We can iterate the 5 equations to find f and solve them to find the values of:

Re = 235000

f = 0.015

V = 1.97 m/s

And use them to find the flow rate,

Q = V*(pi/4)*D^2

Q = (1.97)*(pi/4)*(0.12)^2 = 0.022 m^3/s = 80 m^3 /hours

Heating gas to create plasma can yield?
leva [86]
When a gas is heated to become a plasma, the atoms (or the molecules) of the gas become ionised. In the ionisation, the atoms loose electrons from the exterior energy levels and thus heating to achieve a plasma will create free electrons and ionized atoms (or ionized molecules).

A plasma can not contain neutrons, because neutrons together with protons make the nuclei of the atoms. To free the neutrons from the atomn nuclei there would be necessary HUGE temperatures.

Also a plasma does not contain neutral elements (atoms) or (neutral) molecules, but Ionized atoms and/or molecules and free electrons.

Thus the good answer is d)

9966 [12]

Answer: a) 0.11 Amp b) 0.000429 Joules c) 0.000514 watt

Explanation:

a)current

I=V/r I=6.0/550 =1.1*10^-2 A

b) energy

E= 1.1*10^-2 x (6.0) x 0.00065s(<-- remember to convert ms to seconds) = 0.000429J

C) Average power

P = (0.000429 x 72) / 60

P = 0.000514 W

Which statement best describes what is happening at
12345 [234]

Answer:

Water is absorbing heat.

Explanation:

Water is able to absorb heat

-<u> without increasing much in temperature</u> - better than many substances.

This is because for water to increase in temperature, water molecules must be made to move faster within the water; this requires breaking hydrogen bonds, and the breaking of hydrogen bonds absorbs heat.
