. A magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.078 T and is uniform over a circular surface whose radius is 0.10 m. The field is orient
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through surface is 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

Explanation:

Given :

Magnitude of magnetic field B = 0.078 T

Radius of circle r = 0.10 m

Angle between field and surface normal \theta = 25°

From the formula of flux,

\phi = B.A

\phi = BA\cos \theta

Where \theta = angle between magnetic field line and surface normal, A = area of circular surface.

A = \pi r^{2}

A = 3.14 \times (0.10) ^{2}

A = 0.0314 m^{2}

Magnetic flux is given by,

\phi = 0.078 \times 0.0314 \times \cos 25

\phi = 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

Therefore, the magnetic flux through surface is 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

Nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. Is this process endothermic or exothermic?
Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.

Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.

Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.

As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.

Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.

In a classroom demonstration, students are using a Slinky to observe and learn about wave properties. If the Slinky has a period
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Period = 0.333 seconds

To find the frequency;

Mathematically, frequency of a wave is given by the formula;

Frequency = 1/period

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Frequency = 1/0.333

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: 62.7^0C

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed= 16.7 kJ = 16700 J  (1kJ=1000J)

m= mass of benzene = 225 g

c = specific heat capacity = 1.74 J/gK

Initial temperature of the water = T_i = 20.0°C  = 293 k  0^0C=273K

Final temperature of the water = T_f  = ?

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i

Putting in the values, we get:

16700=225\times 1.74\times (T_f-293)

T_f=335.6K=62.7^0C

The  final temperature will be 62.7^0C
