The operating temperature of a tungsten filament in an incandescent light bulb is 2450 K, and its emissivity is 0.350. Find the

surface area of the filament of a 150 W bulb if all the electrical energy consumed by the bulb is radiated by the filament as electromagnetic waves. (Only a fraction of the radiation ap- pears as visible light.)

Answer:

A = 2.1 × 10^(-4) m²

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature; T = 2450 K

Emissivity; ε = 0.35

Bulb rating; H = 150 W

To calculate the surface area, we will use the formula;

H = AεσT⁴

Where σ is stephan boltzman constant with a value of 5.66 × 10^(−8) W/m²⋅K⁴

Making A the subject of the formula, we have;

A = H/εσT⁴

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

A = 150/(0.35 × 5.66 × 10^(−8) × 2450⁴)

A = 2.1 × 10^(-4) m²

Answer:

–77867 m/s/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Acceleration = (final velocity – Initial velocity) /time

a = (v – u) / t

With the above formula, we can obtain acceleration of the ball as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (–23.9 – 34.5) / 0.00075

a = –58.4 / 0.00075

a = –77867 m/s/s

Thus, the acceleration of the ball is –77867 m/s/s.

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g
