Terrance designed an experiment to show how heat can be transferred from one place to another. The steps of the experiment are s

hown below.
1. Place a lamp light on a table.
2. Place palm about 6 inches below the lamp light.
3. Feel the heat from the lamp light on the palm.

What does Terrance's experiment most likely demonstrate?
A. heat transfer by radiation
B. heat transfer by evaporation
C. energy transfer by melting
D. energy transfer by conduction

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

There are three modes of transfer of heat.

1. conduction

2. Convection

3. radiation

Radiation is the process in which the heat travels through the medium without being heated the interventing medium. In this mode of heat transfer there is no requirement of medium.

So, here, the palm is heated due to the heat transfer from the lamp by the mode of radiation.

A thermometer is removed from a room where the temperature is 70° F and is taken outside, where the air temperature is 10° F. Af

Answer:

$T=51.64^\circ F$

$t=180.10s$

Explanation:

The Newton's law in this case is:

$T(t)=T_m+Ce^{kt}$

Here, $T_m$ is the air temperture, C and k are constants.

We have

$70^\circ F$ in $t=0$

So:

$T(0)=70^\circ F\\T(0)=10^\circ F+Ce^{k(0)}\\70^\circ F=10^\circ F+C\\C=70^\circ F-10^\circ F=60^\circ F$

And we have $60^\circ F$ in $t=30 s$ , So:

$T(30)=60^\circ F\\T(30)=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\60^\circ F=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\50^\circ F=(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\e^{k(30)}=\frac{50^\circ F}{60^\circ F}\\(30)k=ln(\frac{50}{60})\\k=\frac{ln(\frac{50}{60})}{30}=-0.0061$

Now, we have:

$T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}(1)$

Applying (1) for $t=1 min=60s$ :

$T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061*60}\\T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)0.694\\T=10^\circ F+41.64^\circ F\\T=51.64^\circ F$

Applying (1) for $T=30^\circ F$ :

$30^\circ F=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}\\30^\circ F-10^\circ F=(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}\\-0.0061t=ln(\frac{20}{60})\\t=\frac{ln(\frac{20}{60})}{-0.0061}=180.10s$

The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It is a good approximation to assume tha

belka [17]

Given that,

Energy $H=2.7\times10^{31}\ W$

Surface temperature = 11000 K

Emissivity e =1

(a). We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of energy

$H=Ae\sigma T^4$

$A=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}$

$4\pi R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}$

$R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}$

Put the value into the formula

$R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.7\times10^{31}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(11000)^4\times 4\pi}}$

$R=5.0\times10^{10}\ m$

(b). Given that,

Radiates energy $H=2.1\times10^{23}\ W$

Temperature T = 10000 K

We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of radius

$R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}$

Put the value into the formula

$R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.1\times10^{23}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(10000)^4\times4\pi}}$

$R=5.42\times10^{6}\ m$

Hence, (a). The radius of the star is $5.0\times10^{10}\ m$

(b). The radius of the star is $5.42\times10^{6}\ m$
