Model the concrete slab as being surrounded on both sides (contact area 24 m2) with a 2.1-m-thick layer of air in contact with a

surface that is 5.0 ∘C cooler than the concrete. At sunset, what is the rate at which the concrete loses thermal energy by conduction through the air layer?

Answer:

\dot{Q} =1.5\ W

Explanation:

Given that:

  • area of concrete slab, A=24\ m^2
  • thickness of the layer of air, dx=2.1\ m
  • temperature difference between the air and the concrete, dT=5\ K (\rm difference\ will\ be\ same\ in\ K\ and\ ^{\circ}C)

We have:

  • thermal conductivity of air at S.T.P., k=26.24 \times 10^{-3}\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}

<u>Now, according to Fourier's Law of conduction:</u>

\dot{Q} =k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

putting the respective values:

\dot{Q} =26.24 \times 10^{-3}\times 24\times \frac{5}{2.1}

\dot{Q} =1.5\ W

A 95kg fullback (football player for those not into sports) moving south with a speed of 5.0 m/s has a perfectly inelastic colli
Lunna [17]

Answer:

a.  v=3.11mls, 29.4^{0}

b.   K.E =-697.8J

Explanation:

To calculate the values in the  question, a deep understanding of perfect inelastic collision is important.

When two bodies undergo inelastic collision, two important parameters must be well understood i.e

Momentum: the momentum is always conserved in perfectly inelastic collision. i.e the total momentum after collision is the sum of the individual momentum before collision

Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy is not conserved due to dissipative force.

a.To calculate the velocity, we first find the total momentum before collision

Momentum of player 1 p_{1} =mv=95kg*5m/s\\p_{1} =475kgm/s\\

Momentum of player 2 p_{2} =mv=90kg*3m/s\\p_{1} =270kgm/s\\

Hence the total momentum p_{12}=p_{1}+p_{2}\\

Note, since the direction of movement before collision is due south and  due north respectively we have to represent the velocity using the rectangular coordinate

Hence  p_{12}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v=p_{1}i+p_{2}j\\

(95+90)v=475i+270j\\

v=2.57i+1.45j\\

solving for the resultant velocity, we have

v=\sqrt{2.75^{2} +1.45^{2}}\\ v=3.11mls

To calculate the direction of movement, we have

\alpha =tan^{-1}=\frac{v_{j} }{v_{i}}\\  \alpha =tan^{-1}=\frac{1.45}{2.57}\\\alpha =29.4^{0}

b. to calculate the decrease in total kinetic energy, before collision, the total kinetic was

K.E_{initial} =\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}.\\K.E_{initial} =((1/2)*95*5^{2})+((1/2)*90*3^{2})\\K.E_{initial} =1187.5+405\\K.E_{initial} =1592.5J\\

And the final kinetic energy after collision is

K.E_{final} =\frac{1}{2}(m_{1}+m_{2} )v^{2}\\  K.E_{final} =\frac{1}{2}(95+90)* 3.11^{2}\\ K.E_{final} =894.7J

The decrease in Kinetic energy is

K.E =K.E_{final}- K.E_{initial}=894.7-1592.5

K.E =-697.8J

The negative sign indicate a decrease in Kinetic energy

Object A has a mass m and a speed v, object B has a mass m/2 and a speed 4v, and object C has a mass 3m and a speed v/3. Rank th
borishaifa [10]
<h2>The rank is : P_B>P_A=P_C .</h2>

We need to rank the objects according to the magnitude of their momentum.

We know momentum ,P = m\times v{ here m is mass and v is velocity }

Momentum of object A , P_A = m v.

Momentum of object B , P_B= \dfrac{m}{2}\times4v=2\ mv.

Momentum of object C  , P_C= 3m\times\dfrac{v}{3}=mv.

Now, we can rank them in order of  their magnitude of momentum .

P_B>P_A=P_C.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball has a diameter of 3.79 cm and average density of 0.0838 g/cm3.
suter [353]

Answer: 0.258 N

Explanation:

As the density of the object is much less than the density of water, it’s clear that the buoyant force, is greater than the weight of the object, which means that in normal conditions, it would float in water.

So, in order to get the ball submerged in water, we need to add a downward force, that add to the weight, in order to compensate the buoyant force, as follows:

F = Fb – Fg

Fb= δH20* 4/3*π*(d/2)³  * g

Fg = δb* 4/3*π*(d/2)³ *g

F= (δH20- δb) * 4/3*π*(d/2)³*g

Replacing by the values of the densities, and the ball diameter, we finally get:

F= 0.258 N
