The following questions concern two hypothetical materials, R for the red curve and B for the blue curve, (see figure below) showing the net interatomic forces as a function of interatomic separation. (6") a) Which material will have a higher modulus of elasticity, and why? b) Which material will have a higher melting point, and why? c) Which material will have a larger coefficient of thermal expansion, and why? Hint: You can integrate graphically. ro Separation Forcearrow_forward3.4 Estimate the rate of heat loss due to radiation from a covered pot of water at 95 ° C. How does this compare with the 60 W that is lost due only to convection and conduction losses? What amount of energy input would be needed to maintain the water at its boiling point for 30 minutes? The polished stainless steel pot is cylindrical, 20 cm in diameter and 14 cm high, with a tight-fitting flat cover. The air temperature in the kitchen is about 25 ° C. State any assumptions you make in deriving your estimatesarrow_forwardA chamber for heat curing large aluminum sheets lacquered black on both sides operates by passing the sheets vertically between two steel plates 150 mm apart. One of the plates is at 300°C, and the other exposed to the atmosphere, is at 25°C. i) What is the temperature of the lacquered sheet? and ii) What is the heat transferred between the wall when equilibrium has been reached? Neglect the convection effects and the emissivity of lacquered sheet is 1.arrow_forward
- Hello, I am a mechanical engineering student and want to upload this question as I have an exam in early June about thermodynamics. I have been given a question that will help me answer my exams in June. Please could you answer showing step by step guidance on how to answer this question with the formula clearly shown. Thank you very mucharrow_forwardA heating element made of tungsten wire connected to a large battery that has negligible internal resistance. When the heating element reaches 80.0°C, it consumes electrical energy at a rate of 480 W. Assume that the temperature coefficient of resistivity has the value given in Table 25.2 in the textbook and that it is constant over the temperature range in this problem. In the equation R(T) = Ro [1 + a(T - To)] take To to be 20.0°C. Part A What is its power consumption when the temperature of the heating element is 110.0°C?

- My buddy is starting to get hypothermic (body temperature 306 K) during an epic backcountry ski adventure. Since I'm quite warm (body temperature 310 K), I decide to get in a sleeping bag with him to try and warm him up. What heat transfer mechanism will be most responsible for heating him up? For simplicity, ignore any internal temperature differences across my body (that is, assume my skin temperature is also 310 K). Use numbers to support your answer (for human skin, you can use the following values: surface area A = 1:50 m2, emissivity = 0:970, thickness d = 0:0250 m, thermal conductivty 0:200 JmsK)arrow_forwardc) What is the temperature of the iron heating element at x=30mm (in ∘C)? Use the origin defined in the given diagram. d) At which position x (in mm) does the iron heating element experience its highest temperature? e) In this scenario outlined in this question (constant heat generation under steady-state, 1-D conditions), can the temperature distribution in the iron ever be linear? Yes or No? Justify your reasoning.arrow_forwardneed help with part Darrow_forward
- What’s the correct answer for this please?arrow_forwardYou are working with a derivative of naphthalene and, like its parent compound, it has a high triple point and sublimates fairly readily at temperatures near room temperature. At temperatures below 400 K, you find that the vapor pressure of its solid can be represented by the function P 4200 K (1)-11.5 = 11.5 1 atm T Use this equation to estimate the normal sublimation temperature of this compound, Tsubl (in K).arrow_forward2000kg cast iron housing at 450 degree Celsius is quenched in 5000kg of water at 15 degree C.
