Would convection occur if Earth's mantle were a box 30 km on a side?​

Chemistry

kap26 [50]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No, convection does not occur if Earth's mantle were a box 30 km on a side because convection needs medium for the movement of heat energy from one place to another. Convection and conduction are two processes which needs medium for its movement while radiation does not need any medium for its movement. If there is a empty space present between two substances so convection does not occur.

A 232-lb fullback runs the 40-yd dash at a speed of 19.8 ± 0.1 mi/h.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

(a)  7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b)  1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Explanation:

(a)  The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:

λ = h/p = h/mv

where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.

We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.

v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s

m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg

λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:

ΔpΔx > = h/4π

mΔvΔx > = h/4π

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )

Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.

Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )  

     = 0.045 m/s

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )

     = 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.

The answer is 89.4 g/mol cuz the two units carry positives so that means 8.50 flows for 2 more hours than usual.
