Answer:

143.352 watt.

Explanation:

So, in the question above we are given the following parameters or data or information that is going to assist us in answering the question above efficiently. The parameters are:

"A 1.8 m wide by 1.0 m tall by 0.65m deep home freezer is insulated with 5.0cm thick Styrofoam insulation"

The inside temperature of the freezer = -20°C.

Thickness = 5.0cm = 5.0 × 10^-2 m.

Step one: Calculate the surface area of the freezer. That can be done by using the formula below:

Area = 2[ ( Length × breadth) + (breadth × height) + (length × height) ].

Area = 2[ (1.8 × 0.65) + (0.65 × 1.0) + (1.8 × 1.0)].

Area = 7.24 m^2.

Step two: Calculate the rate of heat transfer by using the formula below;

Rate of heat transfer =[ thermal conductivity × Area (T1 - T2) ]/ thickness.

Rate of heat transfer = 0.022 × 7.24(25+20)/5.0 × 10^-2 = 143.352 watt.

How is the lifetime of a star related to its mass?

Flauer [41]

Stars having less mass collapses early than those with more mass. This can be explained by Einstein's equation E=mc².
According to this equation, mass of stars is converted into light due to thermonuclear reactions occuring in the core of star which acts as engine of the stars. This thermonuclear reactions keeps star alive. Thermonuclear reactions occurs slowly in massive stars hence massive stars live more than light stars.

In the figure below the pulley is a solid disk of mass M and radius R with rotational inertia MR 2/2. Two blocks one of mass m a

matrenka [14]

Assuming you are looking for the acceleration a:

1. $m_1a = T_1 -m_1g$
2. $m_2a = m_2g - T_2$
where T is the tension and a is the acceleration of the blocks. The acceleration of the two blocks and the acceleration of the pulley must be equal.

The torque on the pulley is given by:
3. $\tau = \overrightarrow r \times \overrightarrow F = (T_2 - T_1)R = I\alpha = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 \frac{a}{R}$
where $I = \frac{1}{2} mR^2$ and $a = \alpha R$ .

Combining the three equations:
$T_2 - T_1 = \frac{1}{2} Ma \\ m_2g - m_2a -m_1g - m_1a = (m_2-m_1)g - (m_1 + m_2)a = \frac{1}2}Ma \\ \\ a = \frac{(m_2 - m_1)g}{m_1 + m_2 + \frac{1}{2}M }$
