Answer:
ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu
Explanation:
given data
height h = 8ft
Δt = 8 hours
length L = 24 feet
R value = 16.2 hr⋅°F⋅ft² /Btu
inside temperature t1 = 68°F
outside temperature t2 = 16°F
to find out
number of Btu conducted
solution
we get here number of Btu conducted by this expression that s
......................1
here A is area that is = h × L = 8 × 24 = 1492 ft²
put here value we get
solve it we get
ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu
Answer:
b). The same for all pipes independent of the diameter
Explanation:
We know,
From the above formulas we can conclude that the thermal resistance of a substance mainly depends upon heat transfer coefficient,whereas radius has negligible effects on heat transfer coefficient.
We also know,
Factors on which thermal resistance of insulation depends are :
1. Thickness of the insulation
2. Thermal conductivity of the insulating material.
Therefore from above observation we can conclude that the thermal resistance of the insulation is same for all pipes independent of diameter.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Solution:-
- Three students measure the volume of a liquid sample which is 6.321 L.
- Each student measured the liquid sample 4 times. The data is provided for each measurement taken by each student as follows:
Students
Trial A B C
1 6.35 6.31 6.38
2 6.32 6.31 6.32
3 6.33 6.32 6.36
4 6.36 6.35 6.36
- We will define the two terms stated in the question " precision " and "accuracy"
- Precision refers to how close the values are to the sample mean. The dense cluster of data is termed to be more precise. We will use the knowledge of statistics and determine the sample standard deviation for each student.
- The mean measurement taken by each student would be as follows:
- The precision can be quantize in terms of variance or standard deviation of data. Therefore, we will calculate the variance of each data:
- We will rank each student sample data in term sof precision by using the values of variance. The smallest spread or variance corresponds to highest precision. So we have:
Var ( A ) < Var ( B ) < Var ( C )
most precise Least precise
- Accuracy refers to how close the sample mean is to the actual data value. Where the actual volume of the liquid specimen was given to be 6.321 L. We will evaluate the percentage difference of sample values obtained by each student .
- Now we will rank the sample means values obtained by each student relative to the actual value of the volume of liquid specimen with the help of percentage difference calculated above. The least percentage difference corresponds to the highest accuracy as follows:
P ( B ) < P ( A ) < P ( C )
most accurate least accurate
