A walrus loses heat by conduction through its blubber at the rate of 220 W when immersed in −1.00°C water. Its internal core tem

perature is 37.0°C, and it has a surface area of 2.23 m2. What is the average thickness of its blubber? The conductivity of fatty tissue without blood is 0.20 (J/s · m · °C).

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

Define waves as it applies to electromagnetic fields
julsineya [31]

Waves in the electric and magnetic fields are known as electromagnetic waves. You must first understand what a field is, which is just a technique of giving each square inch of space a numerical value. You may see that as a temperature field, for instance, when you look at the weather predictions and they mention the temperature in several locations. Every location on Earth has a unique temperature that can be quantified. Everywhere on Earth has its own wind velocity, which is another form of field. This field differs somewhat from the temperature field in that the wind velocity has both a direction and a magnitude, whereas the temperature just has a magnitude (how hot it is). A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction, hence a field that contains vectors at every location is referred to as a vector field. Vector fields include the magnetic and electric fields. We may examine what would happen if we placed a charged particle at any given position in space. If the charged particle were to accelerate, we would state that the electric field there is the direction in which the particle is moving. In general, positively charged particles will move in the electric field's direction, whereas negatively charged particles will move in the opposite way. Because it is a vector field, the magnetic field exhibits comparable behavior. We discovered in the 19th century that the same interaction, electromagnetism, really produces both electric and magnetic fields. Like an electromagnet, a changing electric field will produce a magnetic field, and a changing magnetic field will induce an electric field (like in a generator). If your system is configured properly, you may have an electric field that fluctuates, which in turn produces a magnetic field, which in turn induces another electric field, which in turn generates another magnetic field, and so on indefinitely. At the speed of light, this oscillation between a strong magnetic field and strong electric field spreads out indefinitely. In reality, light is an electromagnetic wave—an oscillation in the electromagnetic fields. An electric or magnetic field may exist without a medium since they exist in a vacuum, which implies that waves in these fields don't require a medium like sound to flow through.

What is the objective of phasing out an INDUCTION MOTOR before putting the machine into commission?
enyata [817]

The main objective of phasing out an INDUCTION MOTOR is to identify the ends of the stator coils.

<h3>What is an induction motor?</h3>

An induction motor is a device based on alternate electricity (AC) which is composed of three different stator coils.

An induction motor is a device also known as an asynchronous motor due to its irregular velocity.

In conclusion, the objective of phasing out an INDUCTION MOTOR is to identify the ends of the stator coils.

(a) Draw the Moore finite state machine (FSM) of an electronic combination lock with a RESET button, two number buttons (0 and 1
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are a total of 6 states and 3 bits in this problem. Whenever the Reset button is pressed, RESET state is called otherwise the state according to the diagram is called. For the combination to be "01011", the input sequence has to be in the same order. If 0 is pressed instead of 1 in state "010", the last state of output ending with 0 will be called and likewise in all the states that follow.

A 3.52 kg steel ball is tossed upward from a height of 6.93 meters above the floor with a vertical velocity of 2.99 m/s. What is
Dafna1 [17]

Answer : The final velocity of the ball is, 12.03 m/s

Explanation :

By the 3rd equation of motion,

v^2-u^2=2as

where,

s = distance covered by the object = 6.93 m

u = initial velocity  = 2.99 m/s

v = final velocity = ?

a = acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final velocity of the ball.

v^2-(2.99m/s)^2=2\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (6.93m)

v=12.03m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the ball is, 12.03 m/s
