A copper rod has a length of 1.3 m and a cross-sectional area of 3.6 10-4 m2. One end of the rod is in contact with boiling wate

r and the other with a mixture of ice and water. What is the mass of ice per second that melts? Assume that no heat is lost through the side surface of the rod.

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to heat flow,

The heat flux can be defined as

\frac{dQ}{dt} = H = \frac{kA\Delta T}{d}

Where,

k = Thermal conductivity

A = Area of cross-sectional area

d = Length of the rod

\Delta T= Temperature difference between the ends of the rod

k =388 W/m.\°C Thermal conductivity of copper rod

A = 3.6 *10^{-4} m Area of cross section of rod

\Delta T=100-0=100\°C Temperature difference  

d=1.3m length of rod

Replacing then,

H = \frac{kA\Delta T}{d}

H = \frac{(388)(3.6 *10^{-4})(100)}{1.3}

H=10.7446J

From the definition of heat flow we know that this is also equivalent

H = \dot{m}*L

Where,

\dot{m} = Mass per second

L = 334J/g Latent heat of fusion of ice

Re-arrange to find \dot{m},

H = \dot{m}*L

\dot{m}=\frac{L}{H}

\dot{m}=\frac{334}{10.7446}

\dot{m} = 31.08g/s

\dot{m}= 0.032g/s

Therefore the mass of ice per second that melts is 0.032g

A pencil rolls horizontally of a 1 meter high desk and lands .25 meters from the base of the desk. How fast was the pencil rolli
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: 0.55 m/s

Explanation:

This situation is related to projectile motion (also called parabolic motion), where the main equations are as follows:

x=V_{o} cos\theta t (1)

y=y_{o}+Vo sin \theta t + \frac{g}{2}t^{2} (2)

Where:

x=0.25 m is the horizontal displacement of the pencil

V_{o} is the pencil's initial velocity

\theta=0\° since we are told the pencil rolls <u>horizontally</u> before falling

t is the time since the pencil falls until it hits the ground

y_{o}=1 m  is the initial height of the pencil

y=0  is the final height of the pencil (when it finally hits the ground)

g=-9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity, always acting vertically downwards

Begining with (1):

x=V_{o} cos(0\°) t (3)

x=V_{o}t (4)

Finding t from (2):

0=1 m+ \frac{-9.8m/s^{2}}{2}t^{2} (5)

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2y_{o}}{g}} (6)

Substituting (6) in (4):

x=V_{o}\sqrt{\frac{-2y_{o}}{g}} (7)

Isolating V_{o}:

V_{o}=\frac{x}{\sqrt{\frac{-2y_{o}}{g}}} (8)

V_{o}=\frac{0.25 m}{\sqrt{\frac{-2(1 m)}{-9.8m/s^{2}}}} (9)

Finally:

V_{o}=0.55 m/s

It feels better to catch a hard ball while wearing a padded glove than to catch it bare handed. use the ideas of momentum and im
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Let's say the pitcher is angry or just has a really heavy hand while throwing this ball, and now you have to catch it, otherwise it's going to ram into your face. When you put your hands up just in time to catch this ball, this is called impulse, or commonly expressed as a reflex. Depending on what kind of ball is being thrown, such as a golf ball, baseball, basketball, beach-ball, rubber-ball, baseball, etc. ... the weight of the ball itself is going to impact how much it i going to hurt when you catch it without any hand protection. However, if you're catching, let's say a baseball, with a padded glove, it is not going to hurt as bad as catching the baseball bare handed, because the padded glove has enough padding in it to create a barrier between the skin of your hand and the palm of the glove.

An atom undergoes nuclear decay, but its atomic number is not changed.
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

A. Gamma decay

Explanation:

A form of nuclear decay in which the atomic number is unchanged is a gamma decay.

The atom has undergone a gamma decay.

In a gamma decay, no changes occur to the mass and atomic number of the substance.

  • Gamma rays have zero atomic and mass numbers.
  • When they cause decay, they cause no change to the mass and atomic numbers.
  • They simply produce gamma rays during such reactions and these rays are very energetic.
