Answer:

if I am correct, they indicate less steep terrain. think of it as the steeper the terrain the closer together the lines would be. hope that makes sense for you guys.

Two parallel disks of diameter D 5 0.6 m separated by L 5 0.4 m are located directly on top of each other. Both disks are black

oksian1 [2.3K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Stefan-Boltzmann law which establishes that a black body emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power (W / m²) proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.

Heat flow is obtained as follows:

$Q = FA\sigma\Delta T^4$

Where,

F =View Factor

A = Cross sectional Area

$\sigma =$ Stefan-Boltzmann constant

T= Temperature

Our values are given as

D = 0.6m

$L = 0.4m\\T_1 = 450K\\T_2 = 450K\\T_3 = 300K$

The view factor between two coaxial parallel disks would be

$\frac{L}{r_1} = \frac{0.4}{0.3}= 1.33$

$\frac{r_2}{L} = \frac{0.3}{0.4} = 0.75$

Then the view factor between base to top surface of the cylinder becomes $F_{12} = 0.26$ . From the summation rule

$F_{13} = 1-0.26$

$F_{13} = 0.74$

Then the net rate of radiation heat transfer from the disks to the environment is calculated as

$\dot{Q_3} = \dot{Q_{13}}+\dot{Q_{23}}$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2\dot{Q_{13}}$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2F_{13}A_1 \sigma (T_1^4-T_3^4)$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2(0.74)(\pi*0.3^2)(5.67*10^{-8})(450^4-300^4)$

$\dot{Q_3} = 780.76W$

Therefore the rate heat radiation is 780.76W

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.

lapo4ka [179]

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.

Car B has the same mass as Car A but is going twice as fast. If the same constant force brings both cars to a stop, how far will

evablogger [386]

Answer:four times

Explanation:

Given

mass of both cars A and B are same suppose m

but velocity of car B is same as of car A

Suppose velocity of car A is u

Velocity of car B is 2 u

A constant force is applied on both the cars such that they come to rest by travelling certain distance

using to find the distance traveled

where, v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration(offered by force)

s=displacement

final velocity is zero

For car A

$0-(u)^2=2\times a\times s$

$s_a=\frac{u^2}{2a}------1$

For car B

$0-(2u)^2=2\times a\times s_b$

$s_b=\frac{4u^2}{2a}----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{s_a}{s_b}=\frac{1}{4}$

thus $s_b=4\cdot s_a$

distance traveled by car B is four time of car A

Even in the most advanced circuits, we cannot oscillate electrons back and forth at that rate through wires. But we can oscillat

den301095 [7]

Answer:

the oscillations of the electrons must be in the 10⁸ Hz = 100 MHz range

Explanation:

The speed of a wave of radio, television, light, heat, all are manifestations of electromagnetic waves that are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that support each other, the speed of all these waves is the same and the vacuum is equal to c = 3 108 m / s

All waves have a relationship between the speed of the wave, its frequency and wavelength

c = λ f

f = c /λ

for this case lam = 1 m

f = 3 10⁸/1

f = 3 10⁸ Hz

the oscillations of the electrons must be in the MHz range

It should be clarified that the speed of light in air is a little lower

n = c / v

v = c / n

the refractive index of vacuum is n = 1 and the refractive index of air is n = 1.000002
