A very long stick ruled with meter markings is placed in empty space. A spaceship of rest length L = 100 m runs lengthwise along

side the stick. Two space travelers equipped with knives and synchronized watches station themselves fore and aft. At a prearranged time, each reaches through a porthole and slices through the stick. If the relative velocity of the stick and ship is v = (4/5)c, how many meter marks are on the cut-off portion of the stick? Do the calculation first in the frame of the ship, and then do the calculation over in the frame of the stick. In each case, draw careful pictures.

Answer:

Meter marks are on cut-off portion of stick is 100 - 60 = 40 m

Explanation:

Given data:

Spaceship  length of L = 100 m

Relative velocity between the ship and stick is given as

v = \frac{4}{5} c

The observed length observed by the outside observer is

L' = L\sqrt{1 -\frac{v^2}{c^2}}

putting all value to get observe length

putv = \frac{4}{5} c

L ' = 100\times \sqrt{1 - \frac{(4/5)^2c^2}{c^2}

L' = 60 m

Meter marks are on cut-off portion of stick is 100 - 60 = 40 m

What mass of water must evaporate from the skin of a 70.0 kg man to cool his body 1.00 ∘C? The heat of vaporization of water at
romanna [79]

Answer:

100 cc

Explanation:

Heat released in cooling human body by t degree

= mass of the body x specific heat of the body x t

Substituting the data given

Heat released by the body

= 70 x 3480 x 1

= 243600 J

Mass of water to be evaporated

= 243600 / latent heat of vaporization of water

= 243600 / 2420000

= .1 kg

= 100 g

volume of water

= mass / density

= 100 / 1

100 cc

1 / 10 litres.

Consider heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and the air surrounding them. The first solid is being cooled by a
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The solution to the question above is explained below:

Explanation:

For which solid is the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable?

<u>Answer</u>

The lumped system analysis is more likely to be applicable for the body cooled naturally.

<em>Question :Why?</em>

<u>Answer</u>

Biot number is proportional to the convection heat transfer coefficient, and it is proportional to the air velocity. When Biot no is less than 0.1 in  the case of natural convection, then lumped analysis can be applied.

<u>Further explanations:</u>

Heat is a form of energy.

Heat transfer describes the flow of heat across the boundary of a system due to temperature differences and the subsequent temperature distribution and changes. There are three different ways the heat can transfer: conduction, convection, or radiation.

Heat transfer  analysis which utilizes this idealization is known as the lumped system analysis.

The Biot number is a criterion dimensionless quantity used in heat transfer calculations which gives a direct indication of the relative importance of conduction and convection in determining the temperature history of a body being heated or cooled by convection at its surface. In heat transfer analysis, some bodies are observed to behave like a "lump" whose entire  body temperature remains essentially uniform at all times during a heat transfer process.

Conduction is the transfer of energy in the form of heat or electricity from one atom to another within an object and conduction of heat occurs when molecules increase in temperature.

Convection is a transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid. Convection occurs within liquids and gases between areas of different temperature.
