An electric resistance heater is embedded in a long cylinder of diameter 30 mm. when water with a temperature of 25°c and veloc

ity 1 m/s flows crosswise over the cylinder, the power per unit length required to maintain the surface at a uniform temperature of 80°c is 38 kw/m. when air, also at 25°c, but with a velocity of 10 m/s is flowing, the power per unit length required to maintain the same surface temperature is 400 w/m. assume unit length. calculate and compare the convection coefficients for the flows of water and air. according to your calculations, which is a better convective heat transfer media, air or water?

KNOWN: Long, 30mm-diameter cylinder with embedded electrical heater; power required to maintain a specified surface temperature for water and air flows.
 FIND: Convection coefficients for the water and air flow convection processes, hw and ha, respectively.
 ASSUMPTIONS: Flow is cross-wise over cylinder which is very long in the direction normal to flow.
 The convection heat rate from the cylinder per unit length of the cylinder has the form
 q' = h*(pi*D)*(Ts-Tinf)
 and solving for the heat transfer convection coefficient, find
 Water
 hw = q'/((pi*D)*(Ts-Tinf))
 hw = (38*10^3 W/m) / ((pi*(0.030m))*(80-25)C)= 7330.77314  W/m^2K
 Air
 ha = (400W/m) / ((pi*(0.030m))*(80-25)C)=<span> 77.166033 </span> W/m^2K
 COMMENTS: Note that the air velocity is 10 times that of the water flow, yet
hw ≈ 95 × ha.
 These values for the convection coefficient are typical for forced convection heat transfer with liquids and gases
 Watter is a better convective heat transfer media than air

Two carts connected by a 0.05 m spring hit a wall, compressing the spring to 0.02 m. The spring constant k is
vivado [14]

Answer:

0.045 J

Explanation:

From the question,

The elastic potential energy stored in a spring is given as,

E = 1/2ke²...................... Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy, k = spring constant, e = compression.

Given: k = 100 N/m, e = 0.05-0.02 = 0.03 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 1/2(100)(0.03²)

E = 50(9×10⁻⁴)

E = 0.045 J

Hence the right option is 0.045 J

Choose all correct sentences Group of answer choices The power is maximum when the value of the impedance is greater than the va
Illusion [34]

Answer:

True  b and c

Explanation:

In an RLC circuit the impedance is

         Z = \sqrt{[R^{2} + ( (wL)^{2} + (\frac{1}{wC})^{2} ]     }

examine the different phrases..

a) False. The maximum impedance is the value of the resistance  

b) True. Resonance occurs when  

              (wL)² + (1 / wC)² = 0

               w² = 1 / LC

c) True. In resonance the impedance is the resistive part and the power is maximum  

d) False. In resonance the inductive and capacitive part cancel each other out  

e) False. The impedance is always greater outside of resonance, but at the resonance point they are equal

A 120-kg roller coaster cart is being tested on a new track, and a crash-test dummy is loaded into it. The roller coaster starts
avanturin [10]

Answer:

vb = 22.13 m/s

So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.

Explanation:

In order to find the speed of roller coaster at Point B, we will use the law of conservation of Energy. In this situation, the law of conservation of energy states that:

K.E at A + P.E at A = K.E at B + P.E at B

(1/2)mvₐ² + mghₐ = (1/2)m(vb)² + mg(hb)

(1/2)vₙ² + ghₐ = (1/2)(vb)² + g(hb)

where,

vₙ = velocity of roller coaster at point a = 0 m/s

hₙ = height of roller coaster at point a = 25 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

vb = velocity of roller coaster at point B = ?

hb = Height of Point B = 0 m (since, point is the reference point)

Therefore,

(1/2)(0 m/s)² + (9.8 m/s²)(25 m) = (1/2)(vb)² + (9.8 m/s²)(0 m)

245 m²/s² * 2 = vb²

vb = √(490 m²/s²)

<u>vb = 22.13 m/s</u>

<u>So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.</u>

How are types of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum defined?
Drupady [299]
It is defined by their wavelength. Different colors have different wavelengths. For example, radio waves have a really long wavelength, whereas gamma-rays have a very short wavelength.

A ball with an initial velocity of 12 m/s is rolling up a hill. The ball accelerates at a rate of -2.6 m/s/s.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

4.61 seconds

Explanation:

Given data

Initial velocity= 12m/s

acceleration= -2.6m/s^2

From the given data

we can find the time t

we know that

Acceleration= velocity/time

time= velocity/acceleration

time= 12/2.6

time= 4.61 seconds
