Answer:

The bigger balloon will have a larger area and would experience a greater buoyant force exerted on it which would make it even lighter than a smaller balloon and will have higher payload capacity than a smaller one.

Consider a 20 cm thick granite wall with a thermal conductivity of 2.79 W/m·K. The temperature of the left surface is held const

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²

Explanation:

Thickness of the wall is L= 20cm = 0.2m

Thermal conductivity of the wall is K = 2.79 W/m·K

Temperature at the left side surface is T₁ = 50°C

Temperature of the air is T = 22°C

Convection heat transfer coefficient is h = 15 W/m2·K

Heat conduction process through wall is equal to the heat convection process so

$Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}$

Expression for the heat conduction process is

$Q_{conduction} = \frac{K(T_1 - T)}{L}$

Expression for the heat convection process is

$Q_{convection} = h(T_2 - T)$

Substitute the expressions of conduction and convection in equation above

$Q_{conduction} = Q_{convection}$

$\frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L} = h(T_2 - T)$

Substitute the values in above equation

$\frac{2.79(50- T_2)}{0.2} = 15(T_2 - 22)\\\\T_2 = 35.5^\circC$

Now heat flux through the wall can be calculated as

$q_{flux} = Q_{conduction} \\\\q_{flux} = \frac{K(T_1 - T_2)}{L}\\\\q_{flux} = \frac{2.79(50 - 35.5)}{0.2}\\\\q_{flux} = 202.3W/m^2$

Thus, the right wall surface temperature and heat flux through the wall is 35.5°C and 202.3W/m²

The volume of an ideal gas is adiabatically reduced from 151 L to 80.6 L. The initial pressure and temperature are 1.50 atm and

Zolol [24]

Answer:

gas is dioatomic

T_f = 330.0 K

$\eta = 7.07 mole$

Explanation:

Part 1

below equation is used to determine the type Gas by determining $\gamma$ value

$\frac{V_{1}}{V_{F}}\gamma=\frac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}$

where V_i and V_f is initial and final volume respectively

and P_i and P_f are initial and final pressure

$\gamma = \frac{ln(P_f/P_i)}{ln(V_i/V_f)}$

$\gamma = \frac{ln(3.61/1.50)}{ln(151/80.6}$

\gamma = 1.38

therefore gas is dioatomic

Part 2

final temperature in adiabatic process is given as

$T_f = T_i*[\frac{v_i}{V_f}](^\gamma-1)$

substituing value to get final temperature

$T_f = 260*[\frac{151}{80.6}]^ {(1.38-1)}$

T_f = 330.0 K

Part 3

determine number of moles by using following formula

$\eta =\frac{PV}{RT}$

$\eta =\frac{1.013*10^{5}*0.151}{8.314*260}$

$\eta = 7.07 mole$

Why do stars twinkle

vlada-n [284]

As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.
