2. In contrast to Venus, the coldest temperature yet measured on the surface of
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Temperature Scales </u>

There are three temperature scales in the modern sciences: Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin. Fahrenheit temperature scale assigns the value 32 for the freezing point of water and 212 for the boiling point of water and divides that interval into 180 parts. Celsius scale has a similar reference, giving 0 to the freezing point of water and 100 for the boiling point of water. The conversion between them is as follows

\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C+32

K=C+273.15

The coldest temperature yet measured on the surface of any body in the solar system is -235°C. Converting to Fahrenheit

\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}(-235)+32=-391^oF

K=-235+273.15=38.15^oK

1. A liquid of mass 250g is heated with an electric heater. Its temperature rises from 30°C to 80°C, the specific heat capacity
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

1) 50 seconds 2) 100°C

Explanation:

(Follows formula of Power=Energy/Time)

1) 500W x X = 2000J/kg°C x .25kg x 50°C

X = 50 seconds.

2) 2000W x 300s = 1000J/kg°C x 2kg x X

X = 300

Initial temperature => 400°C-300°C = 100°C

3. If 5/8" oriented strand board sheathing is nailed to the wood frame of a building with 8d common nails, how far does the poin
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The nail penetrates into the frame by 1.875 inches

Explanation:

For an 8d nail, it has a length of 2.5 inches, a diameter of 0.13 inches and a head diameter of 0.28125 inches. 8d nails in buildings are used in attaching studs to wall plate, rafter to top wall plates. It is also used when you need to drive a nail at an angle into a wood member.

Since the depth of an 8d nail is 2.5 inches and the sheathing is nailed on the wood frame, to get how far the point of the nail penetrate into the frame, we subtract the depth of the oriented strand board sheathing from the depth of an 8d nail.

Therefore, how far the point of the nail penetrate into the frame = 2.5 inches - 5/8 inches = (2.5 - 0.625) inches = 1.875 inches.

The nail penetrates into the frame by 1.875 inches
