Answer:

The average thickness of the blubber is<u> 0.077 m</u>

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the average thickness of the Walrus blubber.

We employ a mathematical formula to calculate this;

The rate of heat transfer(H) through the Walrus blubber = dQ/dT = KA(T2-T1)/L

Where dQ is the change in amount of heat transferred

dT is the temperature gradient(change in temperature) i.e T2-T1

dQ/dT = 220 W

K is the conductivity of fatty tissue without blood = 0.20 (J/s · m · °C)

A is the surface area which is 2.23 m^2

T2 = 37.0 °C

T1 = -1.0 °C

L is ?

We can rewrite the equation in terms of L as follows;

L × dQ/dT = KA(T2-T1)

L = KA(T2-T1) ÷ dQ/dT

Imputing the values listed above;

L = (0.2 * 2.23)(37-(-1))/220

L = (0.2 * 2.23 * 38)/220 = 16.948/220 = 0.077 m

The inlet and exhaust flow processes are not included in the analysis of the Otto cycle. How do these processes affect the Otto
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Suction and exhaust processes do not affect the performance of Otto cycle.

Explanation:

Step1

Inlet and exhaust flow processes are not including in the Otto cycle because the effect and nature of both the process are same in opposite direction.

Step2

Inlet process or the suction process is the process of suction of working fluid inside the cylinder. The suction process is the constant pressure process. The exhaust process is the process of exhaust out at constant pressure.

Step3

The suction and exhaust process have same work and heat in opposite direction. So, net effect of suction and exhaust processes cancels out. The suction and exhaust processes are shown below in P-V diagram of Otto cycle:

Process 0-1 is suction process and process 1-0 is exhaust process.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing equation related to the question  

answer : 40.389° , 38.987° , 38° , 39.869° , 40.265°

Explanation:

<u>Determine the friction angle at each depth</u>

attached below is the detailed solution

To calculate the vertical stress = depth * unit weight of sand

also inverse of Tan = Tan^-1

also qc is in Mpa while σ0 is in kPa

Friction angle at each depth

2 meters = 40.389°

3.5 meters  = 38.987°

5 meters = 38.022°

6.5 meters = 39.869°

8 meters = 40.265°

A cylindrical resistor element on a circuit board dissipates 0.6 W of power. The resistor is 1.5 cm long, and has a diameter of
Burka [1]

Answer:

a. 51.84Kj

b. 2808.99 W/m^2

c. 11.75%

Explanation:

Amount of heat this resistor dissipates during a 24-hour period

= amount of power dissipated * time

= 0.6 * 24 = 14.4 Watt hour

(Note 3.6Watt hour = 1Kj )

=14.4*3.6 = 51.84Kj

Heat flux = amount of power dissipated/ surface area

surface area = area of the two circular end  + area of the curve surface

=2*\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4} + \pi DL\\=2*\frac{\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} + \pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100}

= 2.136 *10^-4 m^{2}

Heat flux =\frac{0.6}{2.136 * 10^{-4} } = 2808.99 W/m^{2}

fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surface

=\frac{\frac{2*\pi D^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi D^{2}}{4} + \pi DL } \\\\=\\\frac{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100}  )^{2} }{4} +\pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100} } \\\\=\frac{2.51*10^{-5} }{2.136*10^{-4} } \\\\\= 0.1175
