A motorcycle mainly wastes energy as heat <u>energy</u> and <u>sound</u> energy. In the engine, chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. However, the engine is inefficient and much of the chemical energy is lost as heat energy. Also, some of the energy is transformed to sound energy. This explains why the motorcycle is noisy and has an exhaust pipe.
Answer:
Convection is the transfer of thermal energy from one place to another by the movement of gas or liquid particles. How does this happen? As a gas or liquid is heated, the substance expands. This is because the particles in liquids and gases gain kinetic energy when they are heated and start to move faster.
Given Information:
Current = I = 20 A
Diameter = d = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m
Length of wire = L = 1 m
Required Information:
Energy produced = P = ?
Answer:
P = 2.03 J/s
Explanation:
We know that power required in a wire is
P = I²R
and R = ρL/A
Where ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire 1.68x10⁻⁸ Ω.m
L is the length of the wire and A is the area of the cross-section and is given by
A = πr²
A = π(d/2)²
A = π(0.00205/2)²
A = 3.3x10⁻⁶ m²
R = ρL/A
R = 1.68x10⁻⁸*(1)/3.3x10⁻⁶
R = 5.09x10⁻³ Ω
P = I²R
P = (20)²*5.09x10⁻³
P = 2.03 Watts or P = 2.03 J/s
Therefore, 2.03 J/s of energy is produced in 1.00 m of 12-gauge copper wire carrying a current of 20 A
