What is the rate of heat conduction (in W) through the 3.50 cm thick fur of a large animal having a 1.70 m2 surface area? Assume

that the animal's skin temperature is 33.0°C, that the air temperature is −5.50°C, and that fur has the same thermal conductivity as air. (Assume the thermal conductivity of air is 0.023 J/(s · m · °C).)

Answer: Q=42.45W

Explanation:

Q=πA × ∆t/∆X, where;

Q= Rate of heat

π=coefficient of thermal conductivity

A= Area

∆t= change in temperature

∆x= change in thickness

Q= 0.023 × 1.7 × 33-(-5)/0.035

Q= 0.0391×38/0.035

Q = 1.4858/0.035

Q= 42.45w

Does uranium use steam?
Neko [114]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Reactors use uranium for nuclear fuel. The uranium is processed into small ceramic pellets and stacked together onto sealed metal tubes called fuel rods. The heat created by fission turns the water into steam.

A loud sound is produced in the downtown section of a city. Which of the following is least likely to occur with the sound wave
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A. The sound wave will reflect off Buildings and automobiles.

Explanation:

This is because the sound waves would more likely propagate through diffraction through buildings and transmission through the air. It is also more likely to be absorbed by buildings than for multiple reflections to occur off buildings and automobiles. In the process of reflection, these materials would absorb the sound energy thereby reducing its ability to reflect.

If a stone is dropped from a height of 400 feet, its height after t seconds is given by s = 400 − 16t2. Find its instantaneous v
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

v = -32 t

Explanation:

given,

s = 400- 16 t²

we know,

Velocity of an object is defined as the change in displacement per unit change in time.

velocity an also be return as

v = \dfrac{ds}{dt}

v = \dfrac{d}{dt}(400-16t^2)

v= 0 -2\times 16 t

v = -32 t

Hence, instantaneous velocity function given by v = -32 t

To calculate instantaneous velocity, you need to insert value of time.

ex, instantaneous velocity at t = 4 s

       v = -32 x 4 = -128 m/s.

A flashlight converts?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Energy conversion in flashlight.

Explanation:

When the switch of a flashlight is on, then the batteries inside them will be connected in a circuit and chemical energy from the batteries will be converted into electrical energy and then the electrical energy will be converted into light energy.

Light energy is also called electromagnetic energy.

Hence, among the given options the correct one is the first option that is:

1. Electrical energy into electromagnetic energy is the answer.

A rotating space station is said to create "artificial gravity" - a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

\omega=0.31\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The artificial gravity generated by the rotating space station is the same centripetal acceleration due to the rotational motion of the station, which is given by:

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}(1)

Here, r is the radius and v is the tangential speed, which is given by:

v=\omega r(2)

Here \omega is the angular velocity, we replace (2) in (1):

a_c=\frac{(\omega r)^2}{r}\\\\a_c=\omega^2r

Recall that r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{200m}{2}=100m.

Solving for \omega:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{a_c}{r}}\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}{100m}}\\\omega=0.31\frac{rad}{s}
