You can't tell the relative values of I-1 and I-2 from the information given,
but that's not for any super-technical reason.

The reason is because the drawing doesn't show WHERE in the circuit
I-1 and I-2 are measured.

It makes a BIG difference if they're the currents in the resistors, or
the currents in and out of the battery.

-- The currents in and out of the battery are equal.

-- The current through either resistor is less than
the current in or out of the battery.

-- The sum of the currents through both resistors
is equal to the current in or out of the battery.

-- The currents through the two resistors may be equal
or unequal, and either one may be greater or less than
the other. It all depends on the values of the resistors.

The diagram shows waves of sound travelling through the air. By which factor is the sound intensity decreased at 3 meters?

SIZIF [17.4K]

The diagram is missing; however, we know that the intensity of a sound wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source:
$I(r)= \frac{1}{r^2}$
where I is the intensity and r is the distance from the source.

We can assume for instance that the initial distance from the source is r=1 m, so that we put
$I= \frac{1}{r^2}= \frac{1}{(1)^2}=1$
The intensity at r=3 m will be
$I= \frac{1}{r^2}= \frac{1}{(3)^2}= \frac{1}{9}$
Therefore, the sound intensity has decreased by a factor $1/9$ .

The interior space of large box is kept at 30 C. The walls of the box are 3 m high and have a ‘sandwich’ construction consisting

White raven [17]

Answer:

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}$

$T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C$ & $T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given:

interior temperature of box, $T_i=30^{\circ}C$

height of the walls of box, $h=3\ m$

thickness of each layer of bi-layered plywood, $x_p=1.25\ cm=0.0125\ m$

thermal conductivity of plywood, $k_p=0.104\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}$

thickness of sandwiched Styrofoam, $x_s=5\ cm=0.05\ m$

thermal conductivity of Styrofoam, $k_s=0.04\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}$

exterior temperature, $T_o=0^{\circ}C$

From the Fourier's law of conduction:

$\dot Q=\frac{dT}{(\frac{x}{kA}) }$

$\dot Q=\frac{dT}{R_{th} }$ ....................................(1)

Now calculating the equivalent thermal resistance for conductivity using electrical analogy:

$R_{th}=R_p+R_s+R_p$

$R_{th}=\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}+\frac{x_s}{k_s.A}+\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}$

$R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{x_p}{k_p}+\frac{x_s}{k_s}+\frac{x_p}{k_p})$

$R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{0.0125}{0.104}+\frac{0.05}{0.04}+\frac{0.0125}{0.104})$

$R_{th}=\frac{1.4904}{A}$ .....................(2)

Putting the value from (2) into (1):

$\dot Q=\frac{30-0}{\frac{1.4904}{A} }$

$\dot Q=\frac{30\ A}{1.4904}$

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}$ is the heat per unit area of the wall.

The heat flux remains constant because the area is constant.

For plywood-Styrofoam interface from inside:

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_p.\frac{T_i-T_1}{x_p}$

$20.129=0.104\times \frac{30-T_1}{0.0125}$

$T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C$

&For Styrofoam-plywood interface from inside:

$\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_s.\frac{T_1-T_2}{x_s}$

$20.129=0.04\times \frac{27.58-T_2}{0.05}$

$T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C$

balls a, with a mass of 20 kg, is moving to the right at 20 m/s. At what velocity should Ball B, with a mass of 40 kg, move so t

Leya [2.2K]

In that case, their momentum must be equal.
So, m1v1 = m2v2
20 * 20 = 40 * v2
v2 = 400 / 40
v2 = 10

In short, Your Answer would be: 10 m/s

Hope this helps!
