Which material would cause a more severe burn if equal masses of two distinct metals are heated to a temperature of 100 °C: the

one with the higher specific heat capacity or the one with the lower specific heat capacity?

Answer:

The material with the higher specific heat capacity would cause a more severe burn.

Explanation:

Quantity of heat (Q) = mass of material (m) × specific heat capacity (C) × temperature difference (∆T)

From the formula above, the relationship between Q and C is direct in which increase in one quantity (C) leads to a corresponding increase in the other quantity (Q)

The material with the higher specific heat capacity would produce more heat, thus cause a more severe burn.

Describe the algorithm you use for looking up a person’s telephone number in the phone book. The input is person’s name; the out
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The Algorithm for finding a number from a phone book with the person's name as the input and the phone number as output is as follows:

1. Try to remember the name, i.e last name first and first name last, Also make sure you get the spelling right.

2. Using the first letter of the last name, locate the appropriate alphabetical section in which the name should appear.

3. Using the second letter of the last name, find the subsection of first and second letters combined, in the appropriate order, in which the name should appear. (If the last name consists of only two letters, find the appropriate first name.)

4. Using the third letter, find the possible names in a subsection of the first three letters in the correct order. Continue this step with x+1 letters of the name until you have a subsection of names exactly matching the last name of the person whose number you are trying to locate. (x is the number of letters used in the previous step, consistently.) If there is only one of the last name, (check for duplicates) identify the number, and return phone number information.

5. Begin the second step using the first letter of the first name, but limit the section to only those exactly matching the last name. Continue to step 4, again focusing on the first name only within the set of exactly matching last names.

6. When both first and last name match the name you are locating, check for duplicates. IF there are no duplicates, return phone number information.

Explanation:

People's names are generally arranged in phone books in alphabetical order by the last name of the person. The first name of the person is listed after the last name so that people of the same last name can be differentiated.

Unit for trigonometric functions is always "radian". 1. 10 points: Do NOT submit your MATLAB code for this problem (a) Given f(x
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Below is the required code.

Explanation:

%% Newton Raphson Method

clear all;

clc;

x0=input('Initial guess:\n');

x=x0;

f=exp(-x)-sin(x)-0.2;

g=-exp(-x)-cos(x);

while ep>=cc

i=i+1;

temp=x;

x=x-(f/g);

f=exp(-x)-sin(x)-0.2;

g=-exp(-x)-cos(x);

x = 0.451545 and error = 0.023212 at iteration = 244.000000

x = 0.451732 and error = 0.000187 at iteration = 245.000000

The solution x = 0.451732

>>

Explanation:

The two solutions are x =0.451732 and 3.305651 within the range 0 < x< 5.

The initial guess x = 1.75 fails to determine the solution as it's not in the range. So the solution turns to unstable with initial guess x = 1.75.

Steam at 1 MPa, 300 C flows through a 30 cm diameter pipe with an average velocity of 10 m/s. The mass flow rate of this steam i
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

\dot m = 2.74 kg/s

Explanation:

given data:

pressure 1 MPa

diameter of pipe  =  30 cm

average velocity = 10 m/s

area of pipe= \frac[\pi}{4}d^2

                 = \frac{\pi}{4} 0.3^2

A = 0.070 m2

WE KNOW THAT mass flow rate is given as

\dot m = \rho A v

for pressure 1 MPa, the density of steam is = 4.068 kg/m3

therefore we have

\dot m = 4.068 * 0.070* 10

\dot m = 2.74 kg/s
