An iron bar has more mass than a plastic bar of the same volume. so the iron bar will have greater inertia.

Irina-Kira [14]

The response is False, both bars, iron bars and plastic bars have de same inertia, this characteristic does not depend on the type of material, the inertia depends on his transverse section, since we can estimate in the following formula

<span>Area moment of inertia Ixx = BH3/12</span>

<span>Area moment of inertia Iyy= HB3/12</span>

Even when shut down after a period of normal use, a large commercial nuclear reactor transfers thermal energy at the rate of 150

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The temperature of the core raises by $2.8^{o}C$ every second.

Explanation:

Since the average specific heat of the reactor core is 0.3349 kJ/kgC

It means that we require 0.3349 kJ of heat to raise the temperature of 1 kg of core material by 1 degree Celsius

Thus reactor core whose mass is $1.60\times 10^{5}kg$ will require

$0.3349\times 1.60\times 10^{5}kJ\\\\=0.53584\times 10^{5}kJ$

energy to raise it's temperature by 1 degree Celsius in 1 second

Hence by the concept of proportionately we can infer 150 MW of power will increase the temperature by

$\frac{150\times 10^{6}}{0.53584\times 10^{8}}=2.8^{o}C/s$

7.22 Ignoring reflection at the air–water boundary, if the amplitude of a 1 GHz incident wave in air is 20 V/m at the water surf

Serga [27]

Answer:

z = 0.8 (approx)

Explanation:

given,

Amplitude of 1 GHz incident wave in air = 20 V/m

Water has,

μr = 1

at 1 GHz, r = 80 and σ = 1 S/m.

depth of water when amplitude is down to 1 μV/m

Intrinsic impedance of air = 120 π Ω

Intrinsic impedance of water = $\dfrac{120\pi}{\epsilon_r}$

Using equation to solve the problem

$E(z) = E_0 e^{-\alpha\ z}$

E(z) is the amplitude under water at z depth

E_o is the amplitude of wave on the surface of water

z is the depth under water

$\alpha = \dfrac{\sigma}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{\Epsilon_r}}$

$\alpha = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{80}}$

$\alpha =21.07\ Np/m$

now ,

$1 \times 10^{-6} = 20 e^{-21.07\times z}$

$e^{21.07\times z}= 20\times 10^{6}$

taking ln both side

21.07 x z = 16.81

z = 0.797

z = 0.8 (approx)

A standard 1 kilogram weight is a cylinder 54.0 mm in height and 55.0 mm in diameter. what is the density of the material

denis-greek [22]

The radius of the cylinder is equal to half the diameter:

$r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{55.0 mm}{2}=27.5 mm$

The volume of the cylinder is given by:

$V=\pi r^2 h=\pi (27.5 mm)^2 (54.0 mm)=1.28 \cdot 10^5 mm^3$

where h is the heigth of the cylinder. Converting into meters,

$V=1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3$

And the density of the material will be given by the ratio between the mass and the volume:

$d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{1 kg}{1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3}=7812.5 kg/m^3$
