The formation of sand is a physical change because some of the physical properties of the rocks change, but their identities do not. The particles of rock are rearranged as their sizes and shapes change, but their identities and total mass remain the same.

The brain mass of a human fetus during a particular trimester can be accurately estimated from the circumference of the head by
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a. If c = 20 cm, then the mass of the brain is m = 5 g.

b. At c = 20 cm, the brain's mass is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

Explanation:

From the equation

m\left(c\right) = \frac{c^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}

we have

a. for c = 20 cm

m\left(20\right)=\frac{20^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{20}=5,

then the mass is m(20) = 5 g.

b. In order to find the rate of change, first we derivate

\frac{dm}{dc}=\frac{3c^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{c^2}.

Evaluated at c = 20 cm, we have

\frac{dm}{dc}|_{c=20}=\frac{3\times 20^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{20^2}=15.75.

So, at c = 20 cm, the mass of the brain is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

B. The silica cylinder of a radiant wall heater is 0.6 m long
SIZIF [17.4K]

So,  If the silica cyliner of the radiant wall heater is rated at 1.5 kw its temperature when operating is 1025.3 K

To estimate the operating temperature of the radiant wall heater, we need to use the equation for power radiated by the radiant wall heater.

<h3>Power radiated by the radiant wall heater</h3>

The power radiated by the radiant wall heater is given by P = εσAT⁴ where

  • ε = emissivity = 1 (since we are not given),
  • σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 6 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴,
  • A = surface area of cylindrical wall heater = 2πrh where
  • r = radius of wall heater = 6 mm = 6 × 10⁻³ m and
  • h = length of heater = 0.6 m, and
  • T = temperature of heater

Since P = εσAT⁴

P = εσ(2πrh)T⁴

Making T subject of the formula, we have

<h3>Temperature of heater</h3>

T = ⁴√[P/εσ(2πrh)]

Since P = 1.5 kW = 1.5 × 10³ W

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

T = ⁴√[P/εσ(2πrh)]

T = ⁴√[1.5 × 10³ W/(1 × 6 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴ × 2π × 6 × 10⁻³ m × 0.6 m)]

T = ⁴√[1.5 × 10³ W/(43.2π  × 10⁻¹¹ W/K⁴)]

T = ⁴√[1.5 × 10³ W/135.72  × 10⁻¹¹ W/K⁴)]

T = ⁴√[0.01105 × 10¹⁴ K⁴)]

T = ⁴√[1.105 × 10¹² K⁴)]

T = 1.0253 × 10³ K

T = 1025.3 K

So, If the silica cylinder of the radiant wall heater is rated at 1.5 kw its temperature when operating is 1025.3 K

The difference between the frequency fff and the frequency ωωomega is that fff is measured in cycles per second or hertz (abbrev
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Radians

Explanation:

The angular speed is a measure of the rotation speed of a body. It is defined as the angle rotated by a unit of time. Thus, It refers to the angular displacement per unit time and is designated by the Greek letter \omega. Its unit in the International System is radian per second (rad / s).

A 250 - ω resistor is connected in series with a 4.80 - μf capacitor. the voltage across the capacitor is vc=(7.60v)⋅sin[(120rad
galben [10]
<span>553 ohms The Capacitive reactance of a capacitor is dependent upon the frequency. The lower the frequency, the higher the reactance, the higher the frequency, the lower the reactance. The equation is Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C) where Xc = Reactance in ohms pi = 3.1415926535..... f = frequency in hertz. C = capacitance in farads. I'm assuming that the voltage and resistor mentioned in the question are for later parts that are not mentioned in this question. Reason is that they have no effect on the reactance, but would have an effect if a question about current draw is made in a later part. With that said, let's calculate the reactance. The 120 rad/s frequency is better known as 60 Hz. Substitute known values into the formula. Xc = 1/(2*pi* 60 * 0.00000480) Xc = 1/0.001809557 Xc = 552.6213302 Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 553 ohms.</span>

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS!
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1) Current decreases; 2) Inverse proportionally; 3) 1[A]

Explanation:

1)

As we can see as the resistance increases the current decreases, if we take two points as an example, when the resistance is equal to 50 [ohms] the current is equal to 1[amp] and when the resistance is equal to 200 [ohms] the current tends to have a value below 0.5 [amp]. Thus demonstrating the decrease in current.

2)

Inverse proportionally, by definition we know that the law of ohm determines the voltage according to resistance and amperage. This is the voltage will be equal to the product of the voltage by the resistance.

V=I*R\\V = voltage [volts]\\I = current[amp]\\R = resistance [ohms]

where:

R =\frac{V}{I} \\or\\I=\frac{V}{R}

And whenever we have in a fractional number the denominator the variable we are interested in, we can say that this is inversely proportional to the value we are interested in determining. In this case, we can see from the two previous expressions that both the current and the resistance appear in the denominator, therefore they are inversely proportional to each other.

3)

If we place ourselves on the graph on the resistance axis, we see that at 50 [ohm] will correspond a current value equal to 1 [A].
