What is the driving force for (a) heat transfer, (b) electric current, and (c) fluid flow?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The driving force for (a) heat transfer is temperature difference. (b) electric current is voltage difference. (c) fluid flow is pressure or hydraulic head difference.

Explanation: (a) The driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference. Heat transfer between two mediums is possible only if the two mediums are at different temperature, the higher the temperature, the higher the heat transfer.

(b) The driving force for electric current is voltage difference. Voltage difference is defined as the potential difference in charge between two points in electrical field. For electric current to occur,the voltage must be high.

(c) The driving force for fluid flow is pressure difference or hydraulic head difference. For fluid to move upward,it requires energy.

Which of the following objects would have the strongest gravitational pull on a third object positioned at an equal distance fro
3241004551 [841]
I believe Box B will have a greater gravitational pull because the gravitational pull of an object depends on its mass. The more mass an object has, the greater its gravitational pull will become.

For example, we can take planets. Naturally, they are round because once upon a time there was a larger piece of rock that attracted others. But the size of the rock won't matter, it's the weight that matters. If the rock weighed nothing, the other rocks would just rebound upon contact. But if the rock weighed a lot, then things wouldn't so easily rebound and might actually stick to it.

PolarNik [594]

Complete Question

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are investigating the environmental effects of the accident and need to know the area of the spill. The tanker captain informs you that 18000 liters of oil have escaped and that the oil has an index of refraction of n = 1.1. The index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.33. From the deck of your ship you note that in the sunlight the oil slick appears to be blue. A spectroscope confirms that the dominant wavelength from the surface of the spill is 485 nm. Assuming a uniform thickness, what is the largest total area oil slick

Answer:

The  largest total area of the oil slick  A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The volume of oil the escaped is  V  = 18000 \ L

    The refractive index of oil is n_o = 1.1

     The refractive index of water is n_w = 1.33

      The wavelength of the light  is \lambda = 485 \ nm =  485 * 10^{-9} \ m

         

Generally the thickness of the oil for condition of constructive interference between the oil and the water is mathematically represented as

          d = m *\frac{\lambda}{2n_w}

Where is the order of interference of the light and it value ranges from 1, 2, 3,...n

It is usually take as 1 unless stated otherwise by the question

substituting value

      d = 1 * \frac{485 *10^{-9}}{2 * 1.1}    

      d = 218 nm    

The are can be mathematically evaluated as

        A = \frac{V}{d}

Substituting values

        A = \frac{18000}{218*10^{-8}}

        A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2
