Krakatau volcano ( Indonesia ) is well known for its catastrophic 1883 eruption. The result of this eruption was 36,000 deaths. This eruption has been assigned  a VEI ( Volcanic Explosivity Index ) of 6 ( or colossal ). VEI is a 0 to 8 index of increasing explosivity.  VEI of 6  means : a plume height over 25 km and a displacement volume : 10 to 100,000 km³. The total energy released during the eruption was equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT.
Answer: VEI of 6.

Professor Whitney has a sample of lead and a sample of iron. The samples have equal mass. When Whitney heats the samples, the le

The temperature increase of a substance is T=Q/m*c, where m is the mass, Q is the energy absorbed and c is the specific heat.  So you can conclude that if the lead gets to a higher temperature, it must have a lower specific heat

Si tenemos tres cubos del mismo tamaño (hierro, madera e icopor). ¿Qué diferencias puede encontrar entre ellos?
cricket20 [7]

Answer: La diferencia es el peso (o la masa), siendo que el cubo de hierro es el mas pesado, después viene el de madera y después el de icopor.

Explanation:

Ok, los 3 cubos tienen el mismo tamaño, lo que implica que tienen el mismo volumen.

Ahora es útil recordar la relación:

Densidad = masa/volumen.

Masa = densidad*volumen.

Nosotros sabemos que la densidad del hierro es mas grande que la de la madera, y la densidad de la madera es mas grande que la del icopor.

Entonces, por la relación anterior, y sabiendo que todos los cubos tienen el mismo volumen, podemos reconocer que el cubo de hierro tiene mayor masa, después viene el de madera y después viene el de icopor.

Y sabiendo que:

masa*gravedad = peso

podemos saber que el cubo mas pesado es el de hierro, después el de madera y después el de icopor.

Además de esta diferencia, también hay otras que no dependen tanto del tamaño del objeto, como pueden ser las capacidades caloríficas, el como reaccionan a campos eléctricos y cosas así que son triviales, pues son diferentes para casi todos los materiales.

Calculate the induced electric field (in V/m) in a 40-turn coil with a diameter of 18 cm that is placed in a spatially uniform m
kozerog [31]

Answer:

ε = 6.617 V

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of turns; N = 40 turns

Diameter;D = 18cm = 0.18m

magnetic field; B = 0.65 T

Time;t = 0.1 s

The formula for the induced electric field(E.M.F) is given by;

ε = |-NAB/t|

A is area

ε is induced electric field

While N,B and t remain as earlier described.

Area = π(d²/4) = π(0.18²/4) = 0.02545

Thus;

ε = |-40 × 0.02545 × 0.65/0.1|

ε = 6.617 V

(we ignore the negative sign because we have to take the absolute value)
