When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion? *

Ganezh [65]

+1 An electron has a negative charge so losing a charge of -1 from an uncharged, or neutral, atom will leave an ion with a positive charge.

Good science does not depend on interactions within the scientific community true or false

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

I would say that is false. Science can only be perfect after at least some sort of scientific communication and interaction.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

steady state temperature =88.7deg C

t=time within 1 deg C of it steady state is 8.31s

Explanation:

A 1 m long wire of diameter 1mm is submerged in an oil bath of temperature 25-degC. The wire has an electrical resistance per unit length of 0.01 Ω/m. If a current of 100 A flows through the wire and the convection coefficient is 500W/m2K, what is the steady state temperature of the wire? From the time the current is applied, how long does it take for the wire to reach a temperature within 1-degC of the steady state value? The density of the wire is 8,000kg/m3, its heat capacity is 500 J/kgK and its thermal condu

The diameter of the wire is known to be=1mm

properties=

The density of the wire is 8,000 kg/m3,

heat capacity is 500 J/kgK

themal conductivity is 20W/m.K

electrical resistance per unit length of 0.01 Ω/m

from lump capavity method

$B_{i} =\frac{hr/2}{k}$

500*(2.5*10^-4)/20

0.006<0.1

we know also, to find steady state temperature

$\pi$ Dh(T-Tinf)= $I^{2} R_{e}$

make T the subject of the equation , we have

T=25+ $\frac{100^2*0.01}{\pi*0.001*500 }$

T=88.7 degC

rate of chnage in temperature

dT/dt= $\frac{I^2*Re}{rho*c*\pi*D^2/4 } -\frac{4h}{rho*c*D} (T-Tinf)$

at t=o and integrating both sides $\frac{T-Tinf-(I^2*Re/\pi*Dh) }{Ti-Tinf-(I^2*Re/\pi*Dh } =exp\frac{-4ht}{rho*c*D}$

we have

$\frac{87.7-25-63.7}{25-25-63.7} =exp\frac{4*500t}{8000*500*0.001}$

t=8.31s

steady state temperature =88.7deg C

t=time within 1 degC of it steady stae is 8.31s

Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves (see Chapter 24). Because of this transfer, the entropy

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

1. Decreases,

2. Increases,

3. Increases

Explanation:

The heat which is a product of sun's energy, is transferred from the sun to the earth through radiation, conduction or convention. This heat passes through the earth atmosphere, then warms it , before becoming heat energy.

Therefore, Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves . Because of this transfer, the entropy of the sun DECREASES, the entropy of the earth INCREASES and the entropy of the sun-earth system INCREASES.
