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

Hi there! When a chemical Reaction happens, the tell tale signs are as listed:
~The chemical produces bubbles
~ The Chemical emits an odor 
~ The liquid forms a solid(Precipitate) 
~ There is a change of color 
~ And last but not least a change in temperature! 

Hope this can help! Good luck!

What is the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of 89 cm from a 27 μC charge, in units of N/C?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

306500 N/C

Explanation:

The magnitude of an electric field around a single charge is calculated with this equation:

E(r) = \frac{1}{4 \pi *\epsilon 0} \frac{q}{r^2}

With ε0 = 8.85*10^-12 C^2/(N*m^2)

Then:

E(0.89) = \frac{1}{4 \pi *8.85*10^-12} \frac{27*10^-6}{0.89^2}

E(0.89) = 306500 N/C

The y component of the electric field of an electromagnetic wave traveling in the +x direction through vacuum obeys the equation
Alexxx [7]

Answer: 8.6 µm

Explanation:

At a long distance from the source, the components (the electric and magnetic fields) of the electromagnetic waves, behave like plane waves, so the equation for the y component of the electric field obeys an equation like this one:

Ey =Emax cos (kx-ωt)

So, we can write the following equality:

ω= 2.2 1014 rad/sec

The angular frequency and the linear frequency are related as follows:

f = ω/ 2π= 2.2 1014 / 2π (rad/sec) / rad = 0.35 1014 1/sec

In an electromagnetic wave propagating through vacuum, the speed of the wave is just the speed of light, c.

The wavelength, speed and frequency, are related by this equation:

λ = c/f

λ = 3.108 m/s / 0.35. 1014 1/s = 8.6 µm.

What is gamma radiation composed of?
Paha777 [63]
Gamma radiation is composed of the stable form of nuclei and most important Helium Atom is released in this reaction !

gamma radiation is due to fission in which the radioactive substance is bombarded and as a result a stable form of that element is formed and a Helium atom !
