Consider a sphere and a cylinder of equal volume made of copper. Both the sphere and the cylinder are initially at the same temp

erature and are exposed to convection in the same environment. Which do you think will cool faster

Answer: The cylinder

Explanation:

Among all other solid shapes, the sphere has the smallest area for a given volume.

By experiment, the ratio of the radius of a sphere to a cylinder of equal volume is less than 1.

Recall;

That the Rate of transfer of convective heat (Q) = h × A ×change in temperature.

Where ,

h= the co efficient of convective heat transfer

A= the cross sectional area.

As such, since the sphere has a smaller surface area relative to the cylinder, the sphere transfers heat slower than the cylinder.

Therefore, if the sphere and cylinder are exposed to convection in the same environment, then, the cylinder cools faster.

PS; the more the Area, the higher the rate of heat transfer and vice versa.

A microwave oven has 1200 W. If it receives 120 V of potential difference, what is the current in the microwave?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

10amps

Explanation:

Given data

Power =1200W

Voltage =120V

Required

The current I

From

P=IV

I= P/V

Substitute

I=1200/120

I= 10amps

Hence the current is 10amps

A 2kg hockey puck is sliding across the ice skating rink at 2 m/s. A player hits the puck so it's velocity increases to 10 m/s.
konstantin123 [22]

The work done on the puck is 96 J

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the hockey puck is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the puck.

Mathematically:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the final kinetic energy of the puck, with

m = 2 kg being the mass of the puck

v = 10 m/s is the final speed

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2 is the initial kinetic energy of the puck, with

u = 2 m/s being the initial speed of the puck

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the work done by the player on the puck:

W=\frac{1}{2}(2)(10)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=96 J

A car is moving at 19 m/s along a curve on a horizontal plane with radius of curvature 49m.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

\mu =0.75

Explanation:

<u>Frictional Force </u>

When the car is moving along the curve, it receives a force that tries to take it from the road. It's called centripetal force and the formula to compute it is:

F_c=m.a_c

The centripetal acceleration a_c is computed as

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

Where v is the tangent speed of the car and r is the radius of curvature. Replacing the formula into the first one

F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

For the car to keep on the track, the friction must have the exact same value of the centripetal force and balance the forces. The friction force is computed as

F_r=\mu N

The normal force N is equal to the weight of the car, thus

F_r=\mu .m.g

Equating both forces

\displaystyle \mu .m.g=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

Simplifying

\displaystyle \mu =\frac{v^2}{rg}

Substituting the values

\displaystyle \mu =\frac{19^2}{(49)(9.8)}

\boxed{\mu =0.75}
