Complete question:
Resistor is made of a very thin metal wire that is 3.2 mm long, with a diameter of 0.4 mm. What is the electric field inside this metal resistor? If the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor is 10 V.
Answer:
The electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m
Explanation:
Given;
length of the wire, L = 3.2 mm = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m
diameter of the wire, d = 0.4 mm = 0.4 x 10⁻³ m
the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor, V = 10 V
The electric field inside this metal resistor is given by;
ΔV = EL
where;
ΔV is change in electric potential
E = ΔV / L
E = 10 / (3.2 x 10⁻³ )
E = 3125 V/m
Therefore, the electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m
The yellow star will live longer as it has less mass
I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.
The road is in direct contact with your skin. Thermal energy from the road will transfer to the bottom of your feet, then to the rest of your body. This is an example of conduction.
II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.
Just like in the previous example, the hot leather is in direct contact with your skin (I guess if you're going to drive naked). Thermal energy from the leather will transfe to your skin, then to the rest of your body. This is also conduction.
III) A flame heats the air inside a hot air balloon and the balloon rises.
The flame heats air directly at the bottom of the balloon. The warm air expands and becomes less dense. This will rise and let the unheated, denser air in the balloon fall down toward the flame. This is an example of the convection cycle.
IV) A boy sits to the side of a campfire. He is 10 feet away, but still feels warm.
The campfire heats air directly nearby. The warm air expands and moves away from the fire in all directions, leaving behind unheated, denser air to be heated up. Some of the warm air reaches the boy. This is another example of convection.
The answer is A) 1 and 2.
Answer:
2. mechanical weathering can produce smaller pieces of rock that have more surface area for chemical weathering to work Explanation:
Mechanical weathering involves activities of living organisms or some geological processes. The bigger rocks are usually reduced to smaller rocks and further reduction might be limited or not posibble mechanically. This reduced rocks now increases the surface area available for chemical weathering; which further reduces the sizes of the rocks below the size range of mechanical weathering. one will recall that the rate of chemical reaction increases with exposed surface area.
Explanation:
A chemical reaction in which heat or energy is released is known as an exothermic reaction.
On the other hand, when two objects are placed together and heat flows from hotter object to colder object then this process is known as conduction. Therefore, energy is dissipated in conduction process.
Since energy released released goes into the atmosphere and is not used anywhere.
Thus, we can conclude that when an exothermic reaction releases thermal energy, this energy is usually not useable to do work and it is dissipated by conduction.
