Answer:
1. The reason why nichrome wire is used in a heater is due to the properties of nichrome which makes it a material of choice for heating application including;
i) The cost of manufacture of nichrome is low
ii) Nichrome has both high mechanical and creep strength, and therefore is suitable for installation and use in a wide setting
iii) Nichrome has a high resistance to electron flow, making it a good electrical heating element
iv) Nichrome has a high resistance to oxidation, such that it can be reused several times as a heater
v) The high ductility of nichrome allows it to be stretched and drawn around different vessels with contents to which heat is to be supplied
2. Copper wire is not used in heaters because according to Joule's law, the heat produced from the flow of electric current, 'I', through a material having a resistance, 'R', for a time, 't', is proportional to I²·R·t, and copper has a very low resistance, 'R', to the flow of electric current, and therefore, will not produce sufficient heat required at a given current level
Explanation:
Answer:
The average speed would be the 200 miles/4 hours.
The average velocity would be the net displacement to the north at 80 miles/4 hrs = mph
Explanation:
Plants produce food for themselves so they begin the food chain
Answer:
Conduction heat transfer is the transfer of <em>heat by means of molecular excitement within a material without bulk motion</em> of the matter.
Explanation:
Conduction heat transfer in gases and liquids is due to the collisions and diffusion of the molecules during heir random motion.
