Answer:

The unknown substance is Aluminum.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in the temperature of substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 25 ⁰C

Final temperature (T₂) = 100 ⁰C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 100 – 25

ΔT = 75 ⁰C

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 75 ⁰C

Mass of the substance (M) = 135 g

Heat (Q) gained = 9133 J

Specific heat capacity (C) of substance =?

Q = MCΔT

9133 = 135 × C × 75

9133 = 10125 × C

Divide both side by 10125

C = 9133 / 10125

C = 0.902 J/gºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of substance is 0.902 J/gºC

Comparing the specific heat capacity (i.e 0.902 J/gºC) of substance to those given in the table above, we can see clearly that the unknown substance is aluminum.

Answer:

v = 0.92 c

Explanation:

Here, we will use the time dilation formula from Einstein's theory of relativity to find the speed of traveling of the friend:

t =\frac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}} \\\\\\\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}=\frac{t_o}{t}\\\\

where,

v = speed of traveling = ?

c = speed of light

t = time of return = 10 years

t₀ = time passed on earth = 4 years

Therefore,

\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}} = \frac{4\ years}{10\ years}\\\\  1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}=(\frac{2}{5})^2\\\\\frac{v^2}{c^2} = 1-\frac{4}{25}\\\\\frac{v^2}{c^2} = \frac{21}{25}\\\\v^2 = 0.84c^2\\\\

<u>v = 0.92 c</u>

A common method to measure thermal conductivity of a biomaterial is to insert a long metallic probe axially into the center of a
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

Explanation:

Let suppose that thermal conduction is uniform and one-dimensional, the conduction heat transfer (\dot Q), measured in watts, in the hollow cylinder is:

\dot Q = \frac{2\cdot k\cdot L}{\ln \left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)}\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})

Where:

k - Thermal conductivity, measured in watts per meter-Celsius.

L - Length of the cylinder, measured in meters.

D_{i} - Inner diameter, measured in meters.

D_{o} - Outer diameter, measured in meters.

T_{i} - Temperature at inner surface, measured in Celsius.

T_{o} - Temperature at outer surface, measured in Celsius.

Now we clear the thermal conductivity in the equation:

k = \frac{\dot Q}{2\cdot L\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})}\cdot \ln\left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)

If we know that \dot Q = 40.8\,W, L = 0.6\,m, T_{i} = 50\,^{\circ}C, T_{o} = 20\,^{\circ}C, D_{i} = 0.01\,m and D_{o} = 0.04\,m, the thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is:

k = \left[\frac{40.8\,W}{2\cdot (0.6\,m)\cdot (50\,^{\circ}C-20\,^{\circ}C)}\right]\cdot \ln \left(\frac{0.04\,m}{0.01\,m} \right)

k \approx 1.571\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C}

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.
