Given that the efficiency of heating your room is roughly 35%, what mass of natural gas is actually necessary to heat your room

from 12.7 to 25 degrees.

Answer:

Mass of natural gas needed to heat the room is 350,000BTUs

Explanation:

The heating efficiency of a furnace is never 100% because not all energy is released and not all heat is available to heat the place. A lesser efficiency requires more consumption of fuel. Heating values are used for heating fuels in order to calculate the mass of fuel needed.

The heating value of natural gas is 1,000,000BTUs

Therefore the formular for calculating mass of natural gas needed= Heating value of natural gas×efficiency.

Mass=1,000,000×0.35

Mass=350,000BTUs

Ratling [72]

Answer:

<u>CHEMICAL CHANGE</u>:

A change in which one or more substances are converted into new substances is a  <em>chemical change</em>.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances.

<u>EXAMPLE:</u>

<em>Examples of Chemical Change in Everyday Life </em>

Burning of paper and log of wood.

Digestion of food.

Boiling an egg.

Chemical battery usage.

Electroplating a metal.

Baking a cake.

Milk going sour.

Various metabolic reactions that take place in the cells.

3. Maverick and Goose are flying a training mission in their F-14. They are
Elanso [62]

Answer:

A. The bomb will take <em>17.5 seconds </em>to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land <em>12040 meters </em>on the ground ahead from where they released it

Explanation:

Maverick and Goose are flying at an initial height of y_0=1500m, and their speed is v=688 m/s

When they release the bomb, it will initially have the same height and speed as the plane. Then it will describe a free fall horizontal movement

The equation for the height y with respect to ground in a horizontal movement (no friction) is

y=y_0 - \frac{gt^2}{2}    [1]

With g equal to the acceleration of gravity of our planet and t the time measured with respect to the moment the bomb was released

The height will be zero when the bomb lands on ground, so if we set y=0 we can find the flight time

The range (horizontal displacement) of the bomb x is

x = v.t     [2]

Since the bomb won't have any friction, its horizontal component of the speed won't change. We need to find t from the equation [1] and replace it in equation [2]:

Setting y=0 and isolating t we get

t=\sqrt{\frac{2y_0}{g}}

Since we have y_0=1500m

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1500)}{9.8}}

t=17.5 sec

Replacing in [2]

x = 688\ m/sec \ (17.5sec)

x = 12040\ m

A. The bomb will take 17.5 seconds to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land 12040 meters on the ground ahead from where they released it
