Generally, frictional losses are more predominant for the machines being not 100% efficient. This friction leads to the loss of energy in the form of heat, into the surroundings. Some of the supplied energy may be utilised to change the entropy (measure of randomness of the particles) of the system.
Answer:
B. The thickness of the heated region near the plate is increasing.
Explanation:
First we know that, a boundary layer is the layer of fluid in the immediate vicinity of a bounding surface where the effects of viscosity are significant. The fluid is often slower due to the effects of viscosity. Advection i.e the transfer of heat by the flow of liquid becomes less since the flow is slower, thereby the local heat transfer coefficient decreases.
From law of conduction, we observe that heat transfer rate will decrease based on a smaller rate of temperature, the thickness therefore increases while the local heat transfer coefficient decreases with distance.
Answer:
The cost and size of materials needed to produce energy
Explanation:
Artificial photosynthesis is a chemical process that uses solar cells instead of chlorophyll to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity. This process uses artificial leaves that require man-made catalyst to spilt water present in the air into hydrogen and oxygen. It is clear that the reaction requires heat from the sun for energy production thus the technology is expensive to be applied in most areas of the world. Additionally, results obtained from previous undertaken projects of this type has been ineffective and unsustainable because it involves a lot of trial and error.
Answer:
B. (int)(Math.random() * 101)
Explanation:
The function designed as Math.random act as a floating-point of a pseudorandom number with the range between [0,1] which simply means that starting from 0 (inclusive) up to but with the exception of 1 (exclusive), which the design can now be scale to the preferred desired range.
Suppose, we needed 100 inclusive, we have 101 exclusive since we need to scale to 101.
