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

Which scientist described an atom made of a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it?.
swat32

The scientist that described an atom made a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it was: Ernest Rutherford

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford proposed his atomic model in which he considered the atom as a positively, densely charged center called a nucleus in which the electrons circulate around the core with a negative charge.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.

What happens to air pressure as altitude decreases
Ksivusya [100]
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
