Answer:

because the wood could be dry rotted and the metal rusted this can harm someone

Answer:

Older homes did not have the same safety requirements when they were constructed that newly built homes now have to meet; any preventative measures like smoke alarms were left up to the home owners.

Mass of water= 357g density water= 1.0g/cm3

aliya0001 [1]

$m=357g\\\\\rho=1.0\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}\\\\\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\to V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\\\text{substitute}\\\\V=\dfrac{357g}{1.0\frac{g}{cm^3}}=375g\cdot1.0\dfrac{cm^3}{g}=375\ cm^3$

Suppose you have two solid bars, both with square cross-sections of 1 cm2. They are both 24.6 cm long, but one is made of copper

vodka [1.7K]

Explanation:

Expression to calculate thermal resistance for iron ( $R_{I}$ ) is as follows.

$R_{I} = \frac{L_{I}}{k_{I} \times A_{I}}$

where, $L_{I}$ = length of the iron bar

$k_{I}$ = thermal conductivity of iron

$A_{I}$ = Area of cross-section for the iron bar

Thermal resistance for copper ( $R_{c}$ ) = \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c} \times A_{c}}[/tex]

where, $L_{c}$ = length of copper bar

$k_{c}$ = thermal conductivity of copper

$A_{c}$ = Area of cross-section for the copper bar

Now, expression for the transfer of heat per unit cell is as follows.

Q = $\frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o}}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $\frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}$

= $\frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{21 \times 10^{-2} m[\frac{1}{73 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}} + \frac{1}{386 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}}}$

= 2.92 Joule

It is known that heat transfer per unit time is equal to the power conducted through the rod. Hence,

P = $\frac{Q}{T}$

Here, T is 1 second so, power conducted is equal to heat transferred.

So, P = 2.92 watt

Thus, we can conclude that 2.92 watt power will be conducted through the rod when it reaches steady state.

krok68 [10]

$a_y=\dfrac{v_y-v_{0y}}t\implies-9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}=\dfrac{v_y-0}{7\,\mathrm s}\implies v_y=-68.7\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$
