Answer:

First, they are the most visible and authoritative spokesperson for the majority party in the House. Speakers articulate an agenda and explain legislative action to other Washington officials as well as the public. They oversee House committee assignments and collaborate with the powerful House Rules Committee to structure floor debate.

Second, the speaker manages business on the floor and navigates legislative rules, structuring House debate in a way that will advantage their legislative priorities. Adherence to strict rules and procedures is necessary to overcome the difficulty of managing a large legislative body like the House of Representatives.

Third, the speaker oversees everything from accounting to procurement for the House.

A block of ice (m = 9 kg) at a temperature of T1 = 0 degrees C is placed out in the sun until it melts, and the temperature of t

jonny [76]

Answer:

a) An expression for the amount of energy, E_m, needed to melt the ice into water.

(E_m) = (m × Lf)

b) An expression for the total amount of energy, E_tot, to melt the ice and then bring the water to T2

(Total heat) = (m × Lf) + mc (T2 - T1)

c) 3,646,458 J = 3646.46 kJ

Explanation:

a) When a pure body changes its phase at meltimgbor boiling point, it does so at a constant temperature. When a pure body melts, the amount of heat responsible for this change is just given by a product od the mass of the body and the body's heat of fusion.

(E_m) = (m × Lf)

b) The Heat required to raise the temperature of a body from one temperature to another is given by the product of the mass of the body, its specific heat capacity and the temperature difference between the final point and the starting point.

(E_2) = mcΔT = mc (T2 - T1)

Total heat required to melt the ice at T1 = 0 and raise the temperature of the resulting water to T2 is then a sum of (E_m) + (E_2)

(Total heat) = (m × Lf) + mc (T2 - T1)

c) What is the energy in Joules?

(Total heat) = (m × Lf) + mc (T2 - T1)

m = mass of ice = resulting mass of water = 9 kg

Lf = latent heat of fusion = 334000 J/kg

c = Specific heat capacity of water = 4186 J/kg.K

T2 = final temperature of the water = 17°C

T1 = Initial temperature of the water = 0°C

Note that the units of temperature difference is the same for K and °C

(Total heat) = (m × Lf) + mc (T2 - T1)

Q = (9 × 334000) + [9 × 4186 × (17 - 0)]

Q = 3,006,000 + 640,458 = 3,646,458 J = 3646.46 kJ

Hope this Helps!!!

A long, straight metal rod has a radius of 5.75 cm and a charge per unit length of 33.3 nC/m. Find the electric field at the fol

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question;

We will make assumptions of certain values since they are not given but the process to achieve the end result will be the same thing.

We are to calculate the following task, i.e. to determine the electric field at the distances:

a) at 4.75 cm

b) at 20.5 cm

c) at 125.0 cm

Given that:

the charge (q) = 33.3 nC/m

= 33.3 × 10⁻⁹ c/m

radius of rod = 5.75 cm

a) from the given information, we will realize that the distance lies inside the rod. Provided that there is no charge distribution inside the rod.

Then, the electric field will be zero.

b) The electric field formula $E = \dfrac{kq }{d}$

$E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{0.205}$

E = 1461.95 N/C

c) The electric field E is calculated as:

$E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{1.25}$

E = 239.76 N/C

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Positive z-direction

Explanation:

According to Fleming's right hand rule, point the fingers of your right hand in the direction of Electric field E ( positive x-direction), and curl your fingers toward magnetic field B (positive y-direction), and your thumb points in the direction of propagation of wave (positive z-direction).

Therefore, the correct option will be positive z-direction.
