leva [86]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

c. an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

Explanation:

Conduction refers to the transfer of thermal energy or electric charge as a result of the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

Hence, the difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is that an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

How high a building could fire hoses effectively spray from the ground? Fire hose pressures are around 1 MPa. (It is also said t
Mrac [35]

Answer:

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

Explanation:

The phenomenon can be modelled after the Bernoulli's Principle, in which the sum of heads related to pressure and kinetic energy on ground level is equal to the head related to gravity.

\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}= z_{2}+\frac{P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g}

The velocity of water delivered by the fire hose is:

v_{1} = \frac{(300\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot(\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.3\,m)^{2}}

v_{1} = 0.267\,\frac{m}{s}

The maximum height is cleared in the Bernoulli's equation:

z_{2}= \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}

z_{2}= \frac{1\times 10^{6}\,Pa-101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa}{(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} + \frac{(0.267\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

a cubical box 20-cm on a side is contructed from 1.2 cm thick concrete panels. A 100-W light bulb is sealed inside the box. What
Flura [38]

Answer:

Temperature on the inside ofthe box

Explanation:

The power of the light bulb is the rate of heat conduction of the bulb, dq/dt = 100 W

The thickness of the wall, L = 1.2 cm = 0.012m

Length of the cube's side, x = 20cm = 0.2 m

The area of the cubical box, A = 6x²

A = 6 * 0.2² = 6 * 0.04

A = 0.24 m²

Temperature of the surrounding, T_0 = 20^0 C = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Temperature of the inside of the box, T_{in} = ?

Coefficient of thermal conductivity, k = 0.8 W/m-K

The formula for the rate of heat conduction is given by:

dq/dt = \frac{kA(T_{in} - T_0)}{L} \\\\100 = \frac{0.8*0.24(T_{in} - 293)}{0.012}\\\\T_{in} - 293 = \frac{100 * 0.012}{0.8*0.24} \\\\T_{in} - 293 = 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 293 + 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 K\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 - 273\\\\T_{in} = 26.25^0 C
