Answer:

The process of soil formation generally involves the downward movement of clay, water, and dissolved ions, and a common result of that is the development of chemically and texturally different layers known as soil horizons. The typically developed soil horizons, as illustrated in Figure 5.16, are: O — the layer of organic matter A — the layer of partially decayed organic matter mixed with mineral material E— the eluviated (leached) layer from which some of the clay and iron

(a) What is the cost of heating a hot tub containing 1440 kg of water from 10.0°C to 40.0°C, assuming 75.0% efficiency to take h

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

a) $E = 6.024\,USD$ , For m kilograms, it is 4184m J., 3600000 joules, b) $i = 88.200\,A$

Explanation:

a) The amount of heat needed to warm water is given by the following expression:

$Q_{needed} = m_{w}\cdot c_{w}\cdot (T_{f}-T_{i})$

Where:

$m_{w}$ - Mass of water, measured in kilograms.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, measured in $\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ .

$T_{f}$ , $T_{i}$ - Initial and final temperatures, measured in $^{\circ}C$ .

Then,

$Q_{needed} = (1440\,kg)\cdot \left(4184\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (40^{\circ}C - 10^{\circ}C)$

$Q_{needed} = 180748800\,J$

The energy needed in kilowatt-hours is:

$Q_{needed} = 180748800\,J\times \left(\frac{1}{3600000}\,\frac{kWh}{J} \right)$

$Q_{needed} = 50.208\,kWh$

The electric energy required to heat up the water is:

$E = \frac{50.208\,kWh}{0.75}$

$E = 66.944\,kWh$

Lastly, the cost of heating a hot tub is: (USD - US dollars)

$E = (66.944\,kWh)\cdot \left(0.09\,\frac{USD}{kWh} \right)$

$E = 6.024\,USD$

The heat needed to raise the temperature a degree of a kilogram of water is 4184 J. For m kilograms, it is 4184m J. Besides, a kilowatt-hour is equal to 3600000 joules.

b) The current required for the electric heater is:

$i = \frac{Q_{needed}}{\eta \cdot \Delta V \cdot \Delta t}$

$i = \frac{180748800\,J}{0.75\cdot (220\,V)\cdot (3.45\,h)\cdot \left(3600\,\frac{s}{h} \right)}$

$i = 88.200\,A$

In which of these scenarios would the sound of a drumstick hitting a metal bar get to you in the least amount of time?explain ur

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Scenario 1 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The sound of the drumstick hitting the metal bar will get to me in a shorter amount of time in Scenario 1 . The sound wave will travel faster in the metal bar than through the air because the speed of sound waves in solid is faster than it is in gases.
