A common method to measure thermal conductivity of a biomaterial is to insert a long metallic probe axially into the center of a

long cylindrical container of the material. The probe is maintained at some uniform temperature Ti, and the outside of the container is maintained at a temperature To. Inside the metallic probe is an electrical heater for which the electrical power is measured. If the diameter of the probe maintained at 50°C is 1 cm, the outer diameter of the container maintained at 20°C is 4 cm, the length of the cylinder container is 60 cm, and the power input is 40.8 W, calculate the thermal conductivity of this material.

Answer:

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

Explanation:

Let suppose that thermal conduction is uniform and one-dimensional, the conduction heat transfer (\dot Q), measured in watts, in the hollow cylinder is:

\dot Q = \frac{2\cdot k\cdot L}{\ln \left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)}\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})

Where:

k - Thermal conductivity, measured in watts per meter-Celsius.

L - Length of the cylinder, measured in meters.

D_{i} - Inner diameter, measured in meters.

D_{o} - Outer diameter, measured in meters.

T_{i} - Temperature at inner surface, measured in Celsius.

T_{o} - Temperature at outer surface, measured in Celsius.

Now we clear the thermal conductivity in the equation:

k = \frac{\dot Q}{2\cdot L\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})}\cdot \ln\left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)

If we know that \dot Q = 40.8\,W, L = 0.6\,m, T_{i} = 50\,^{\circ}C, T_{o} = 20\,^{\circ}C, D_{i} = 0.01\,m and D_{o} = 0.04\,m, the thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is:

k = \left[\frac{40.8\,W}{2\cdot (0.6\,m)\cdot (50\,^{\circ}C-20\,^{\circ}C)}\right]\cdot \ln \left(\frac{0.04\,m}{0.01\,m} \right)

k \approx 1.571\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C}

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

Answer:

Energy is essentially work done by an object or on object.

From,

W = Fd

It's directly proportional to mass.

from,

K. E = 1/2mv²

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

P. E = mgh

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

H = mc∆T

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

Thus increasing mass will increase the energy also imparted on another object since all the above eqns show that relationship.

And for 2 moving bodies

K.Ei = K.Ef(energy conservation)

m1u²1 + m2u²2 = m1v²1 + m2v²2

The relationship is the same that the greater mass the greater the impact.

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.

A train traveled 350km in 2.5h. what was the average speed of the train?
MaRussiya [10]
Speed equals distance divided by time, so 350 divided by 2.5 equals 140 kilometers per hour.

Elena L [17]

The variation of water depth at spreading centers (ridges) controlled by isostasy  as convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.

<h3>What is convective heat transfer?</h3>

When heat transfer takes place between the two fluids in direct or indirect contact.

The lithosphere cools when it moves away from the ridge axis by sea floor spreading. The cooler rocks have low density, so the sea floor gets deeper as the lithosphere gets more dense.

Thus, the convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.
