Why does the chord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does​

Physics
1 answer:
8_murik_8 [283]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.

A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched string. The amplitude of this wave is 0.08190.0819 m, its frequency
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Amplitude = 0.08190 m

Frequency = 2.29 Hz

Wavelength = 1.87 m

(a). We need to calculate the shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave

Using formula of distance

d=2A

Where, d = distance

A = amplitude

Put the value into the formula

d=2\times0.08190

d=0.1638\ m

Hence, The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.

A cylindrical resistor element on a circuit board dissipates 1.2 W of power. The resistor is 2 cm long, and has a diameter of 0.
34kurt

Answer:

(a) The resistor disspates 103680 joules during a 24-hour period.

(b) The heat flux of the resistor is approximately 4340.589 watts per square meter.

(c) The fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces is 0.045.

Explanation:

(a) The amount of heat dissipated (Q), measured in joules, by the cylindrical resistor is the power multiplied by operation time (\Delta t), measured in hours. That is:

Q = \dot Q \cdot \Delta t (1)

If we know that \dot Q = 1.2\,W and \Delta t = 86400\,s, then the amount of heat dissipated by the resistor is:

Q = (1.2\,W)\cdot (86400\,s)

Q = 103680\,J

The resistor disspates 103680 joules during a 24-hour period.

(b) The heat flux (Q'), measured in watts per square meter, is the heat transfer rate divided by the area of the cylinder (A), measured in square meters:

Q' = \frac{\dot Q}{A} (2)

Q' = \frac{\dot Q}{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot D^{2}+\pi\cdot D \cdot h } (3)

Where:

D - Diameter, measured in meters.

h - Length, measured in meters.

If we know that \dot Q = 1.2\,W, D = 4\times 10^{-3}\,m and h = 2\times 10^{-2}\,m, the heat flux of the resistor is:

Q' = \frac{1.2\,W}{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)^{2}+\pi\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)\cdot (2\times 10^{-2}\,m) }

Q' \approx 4340.589\,\frac{W}{m^{2}}

The heat flux of the resistor is approximately 4340.589 watts per square meter.

(c) Since heat is uniformly transfered, then the fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces (r), no unit, is the ratio of the top and bottom surfaces to total surface:

r = \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot D^{2}}{A} (3)

If we know that A \approx 2.765\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2} and D = 4\times 10^{-3}\,m, then the fraction is:

r = \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)^{2} }{2.765\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}}

r = 0.045

The fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces is 0.045.
