A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.

The temperature of a system rises by 10 °C during a heating process. Express the rise in temperature of K, R, and °F.
Lorico [155]

Explanation:

Given T = 10 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (10 + 273.15) K = 283.15 K

<u>T = 283.15 K </u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(F) is shown below:

T (°F) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 32  

So,

T (°F) = (10 × 9/5) + 32 = 50 °F

<u>T = 50 °F</u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(R) is shown below:

T (R) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 491.67

So,

T (R) = (10 × 9/5) + 491.67 = 509.67 R

<u>T = 509.67 R</u>

The ice on the rear window of an automobile is defrosted by attaching a thin, transparent, film type heating element to its inne
pshichka [43]

Answer:

A)Q = 1208.33 W/m²

B)K = 0.138 W/m.K

Explanation:

We are given;

inside air temperature;T_∞,i =25 °C = 25 + 273 = 298K

outside air temperature;T_∞,o = -10°C = - 10 + 273 = 263K

Inner surface temperature;T_s,i = 15 °C = 15 + 273 = 288K

Thickness, L = 4mm = 0.004m

convection heat transfer coefficient ; hi = 25 W/(m².K)

A) From an energy balance at the inner surface and the thermal circuit, the electric power required per unit window area is given as;

Q = [(T_s,i - T_∞,o)/((L/k) + (1/hi))] - [(T_∞,o - T_s,i)/(1/hi)]

Plugging in the relevant values with k for glass as 1.4 W/m.k, we have;

Q = [(288 - 263)/((0.004/1.4) + (1/25))] - [(263 - 288)/(1/25)]

Q = 583.33 + 625

Q = 1208.33 W/m²

B) The formula for thermal conductivity is;

K = (QL)/(AΔT)

Where;

K is the thermal conductivity in W/m.K

Q is the amount of heat transferred through the material

L is the distance between the two isothermal planes

A is the area of the surface in square meters

ΔT is the difference in temperature in Kelvin

ΔT = 298K - 263K = 35K

Now, since we have value of heat per unit area to be Q = 1208.33 W/m², let's rearrange the equation to reflect that; Thus ;

k = (Q/A) x (L/ΔT)

K = 1208.33 x (0.004/35)

K = 0.138 W/m.K

Why do we need an architect?explain briefly by focusing on its various sectors.
lara [203]

Answer:

An architect will help you determine exactly what you need and come up with inventive ideas to solve even the most complex design problems. Think of us as professional 3D problem solvers! An architect can and should lift your project out of the ordinary.

Explanation:

What are the 3 main functions of an architect?

Design: Architects must design, plan, and develop concepts to create construction plans and technical documents. These are based on client requirements and ideas. Research: Architects must learn about the different building codes, safety regulations, construction innovations and city laws that affect their designs

What are the 7 types of architecture?

There are several main types of architects who focus on different types of structures and designs.

...

Commercial Architects

Office buildings / skyscrapers.

Hotels.

Bridges.

Schools.

Museums.

Government buildings.

Multi-unit residential buildings.

Pretty much any type of building that's not a residential home.
