Answer:

A ruby is measures a 9 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness, second only to diamond and matched with sapphire. This makes a ruby an extremely hard and durable gemstone.

A sapphire is the birthstone for September. It is also a traditional gift for those celebrating 5th or 45th anniversaries.

The name “ruby” comes from the Latin word ruber, which means red.

Sapphires get their colors from trace elements in the mineral corundum. Classic blue sapphires contain iron and titanium, and trace elements of chromium can turn corundum pink, while more chromium turns it into a ruby.

A long copper rod of diameter 2.0 cm is initially at a uniform temperature of 100°C. It is now exposed to an air stream at 20°C
Lisa [10]

Answer:

t = 4.0 min

Explanation:

given data:

diameter of rod = 2 cm

T_1 = 100 degree celcius

Air stream temperature =  20 degree celcius

heat transfer coefficient = 200 W/m2. K

WE KNOW THAT

copper thermal conductivity = k = 401 W/m °C

copper specific heat Cp = 385 J/kg.°C

density of copper = 8933 kg/m3

charateristic length is given as Lc

Lc = \frac{V}{A_s}

Lc = \frac{\frac{\pi D^2}{4} L}{\pi DL}

Lc = \frac{D}{4}

Lc = \frac{0.02}{6} = 0.005 m

Biot number is given as Bi = \frac{hLc}{k}

Bi = \frac{200*0.005}{401}

Bi = 0.0025

As Bi is greater than 0.1 therefore lumped system analysis is applicable

so we have

\frac{T(t) - T_∞}{Ti - T_∞} = e^{-bt} ............1

where b is given as

b = \frac{ hA}{\rho Cp V}

b = \frac{ h}{\rho Cp Lc}

b = \frac{200}{8933*385*0.005}

b = 0.01163 s^{-1}

putting value in equation 1

\frac{25-20}{100-20} = e^{-0.01163t}

solving for t we get

t = 4.0 min

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is 390 N north. The water exerts a force of 180 N east. If the boat (in
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Acceleration= 1,59 (meters/(second^2))

Direction= NE; 65,22°  above the east direction.

Explanation:

Resulting force= ( ((180N)^2) + ((390N)^2) ) ^ (1/2) = 429,53 N

Angle obove the east direction= ((cos) ^ (-1)) (180N / 429,53 N) = 65,22°

Acceleration= Resulting force / mass = (429,53 N) / (270 kg) =

= (429,53 kg × (meters/(second^2))) / (270kg) = 1,59 (meters/(second^2))

Una flecha tiene una rapidez de lanzamiento inicial de 18 m/s. Si debe dar en un blanco a 31 m de distancia, que está a la misma
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

34.8 and 55.2º

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, as we are told that the range of the arrow must be equal to its range and = 31 m let's use the equation

         

The scope equation is

         R = v₀² sin 2θ /g

         sin 2 θ = R g / v₀²

         sin 2 θ = 31 9.8 / 18²

         2 θ = sin⁻¹ 0.93765

          θ = 34.8º

At the launch of projectiles we have two complementary angles with the same range in this case 34.8 and (90-34.8) = 55.2º
