14:36:17 query introset 5 # 12: Finding the conductivity given rate of energy flow, area, temperatures, thickness of wall. Describe how we find the conductivigy given the rate of energy flow, area, temperatures, and thickness of the wall?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> conductivity is found by looking at the watts/ energy flow divided by the temperature difference times the thickness

14:36:23 ** The rate at which thermal energy is conducted across for a object made of a given substance is proportional to the temperature gradient (the rate at which temperature changes across the object), and to the cross-sectional area of the object. The conductivity is the constant of proportionality for the given substance. So we have Rate of thermal energy condction = conductivity * temperature gradient * area, or R = k * `dT/`dx * A. For an object of uniform cross-section `dT is the temperature difference across the object and `dx is the distance L between the faces of the object. In this case the equation is R = k * `dT / L * A and we can solve to get k = R * L / (`dT * A). **

14:37:49 Explain how energy flow, for a given material, is affected by area (e.g., is it proportional to area, inversely proportional, etc.), thickness and temperature gradient.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> energy flow for a given area is actually proprotional to area, in that as the are increases, so to does the energy flow. the thickness also affects it by offering more resistance, and the temperature gradient helps energy flow faster.

14:38:06 ** CORRECT STUDENT ANSWER WITHOUT EXPLANATION: Energy flow is directly proportional to area inversely propportional to thickness and directly proportional to temperature gradient GOOD STUDENT ANSWER WITH EXPLANATIONS, PLUS INSTRUCTOR COMMENTARY: The energy flow for a given material increases if the area increases. This is because the more area you have the wider a path something has to go through so more of it can move through it. Just like a 4 lane highway will carry more cars in a given time interval than a two lane highway will. So the relationship of energy flow to area is proportional. Energy flow, however is inversely proportional to thickness. This is because although the thermal energy flows through the material, the material impedes it. So if the thickness increases the thermal energy will have to travel farther through the resistance and be impeded more. ** Also for given temperature difference, greater thickness `dx implies smaller temperature gradient `dT / `dx. Small temperature gradient doesn't 'drive' the energy flow as much. Energy flow is also proportional to the temperature gradient. Meaning if the difference in the two temperatures is greater then the energy will move faster from one side to the other. Temperature gradient is not difference in temperatures, it's difference in temperature per unit of distance across the material. Temperature gradient is `dT / `dx, not just `dT. Greater temperature gradient means greater difference in temperature over any given small distance increment. The greater the temperature difference across this increment the more energy will flow. **

14:39:29 principles of physics and general college physics 13.8: coeff of expansion .2 * 10^-6 C^-1, length 2.0 m. What is expansion along length if temp increases by 5.0 C?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> the expansion is actually the coeff of expan. times 10 (5 degrees times 2m) this is simplified to 0.2 times 10*6-5 c^-1
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
14:39:55 The amount of the expansion is the product of the coefficient of expansion, the original length and the temperature difference: `dL = alpha * L0 * `dT = .2 * 10^-6 C^(-1) * 2.0 m * 5.0 C = 2 * 10^-6 m. This is 2 microns, two-onethousandths of a millimeter. By contrast the coefficient of expansion of steel is 12 * 10^-6 C^(-1);using this for the coefficient of expansion yields a change in length of 24 * 10^-6 m, or 24 microns, which is 240 times as much as for the given alloy.

14:40:18 query general phy 13.12: what is the coefficient of volume expansion for quartz, and by how much does the volume change? (Note that Principles of Physics and University Physics students do not do General Physics problems)
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> k
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
14:40:22 ** The coefficient of volume expansion for quartz is 1 x 10^(-6) C^(-1). The sphere has diameter 8.75 cm, so its volume is 4/3 pi r^3 = 4/3 pi ( 4.38 cm)^3 = 352 cm^3, approx.. We therefore have dV = beta* V0*dT = 3 x 10^(-6) C^ (-1) * 352 cm^3 * (200C - 30 C) = 0.06 cm^3 **

14:40:34 ** The ice doesn't change temperature until it's melted, at which time it is in the form of water with the specific heat of water. Also the steam will come to temperature Tf so its change in thermal energy after being condensted will be 4186 J / (kg K) * .035 kg * (Tf - 100 C). I prefer to say that the sum of all the thermal energy changes is zero, so that we don't have to worry about taking a negative of a negative (which you should have done on your right-hand side, and which would have avoided the negative result). I would write the equation as follows: [.446 kg * 390 J/kg*K * (Tf - 0 C)] + [0.0950 kg * 4186 J/kg*K *(Tf - 0 C)] - .0350 kg * 2.256 x 10^6 J/kg + 4186 J / (kg K) * .035 kg * (Tf - 100 C) = 0. Noting that change in temperature of a Kelvin degree is identical to a change of a Celsius degree this gives you 170 J/C * Tf + 390 J/C * Tf - 79000 J - 14000 J + 140 J / C * Tf = 0 or 700 J / C * Tf = 93000 J, approx. or Tf = 130 C. This isn't possible--we can't end up warmer than the original temperature of the steam. We conclude that not all the steam condenses and that the system therefore reaches equilibrium at 100 C, with a mixture of water and steam. Our energy conservation equation will therefore be [.446 kg * 390 J/kg*C * (100 C - 0 C)] + [0.0950 kg * 4186 J/kg*C *(100 C - 0 C)] - mCondensed * 2.256 x 10^6 J/kg = 0 where mCondensed is the mass of the condensed steam. This gives us 17000 J + 39000 J - mCondensed * 2.3 * 10^6 J/kg = 0 or mCondensed = 56000 J / (2.3 * 10^6 J/kg) = .023 kg. We end up with .095 kg * .023 kg = .118 kg of water and .035 kg - .023 kg = .012 kg of steam. **

14:40:46 query univ phy 17.100 (90 in 10th edition): C = 29.5 J/mol K + (8.2 + 10^-3 J/mol K^2) T . Give your solution to this problem.

14:40:50 ** Specific heat is not constant but varies with temperature. The energy required to raise the temperature of 3 moles by dT degrees while at temperature T is 3 mol * C * dT = 3 mol * (29.5 J/mol K + (8.2 + 10^-3 J/mol K^2) T) * dT. You have to integrate this expression from T= 27 C to T = 227 C, which is from 300 K to 500 K. Antiderivative of (29.5 J/mol K + (8.2 + 10^-3 J/mol K^2) T) is F(T) = 29.5 J / (mol K) * T + (8.2 + 10^-3 J/mol K^2) * T^2 / 2. Simplify and apply Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (find F(500) - F(300) if you think the temperature T is in Kelvin or F(227) - F(27) if you think it's in Celsius; this isn't specified in the problem and while the units tend to imply Kelvin temperature the resulting specific heats would be unrealistic for most real substances), then multiply by the constant 3 moles. The result for Kelvin temperatures is about 20,000 Joules. **

14:40:59 **The final mass of the system is .525 kg, meaning that .525 kg - (.340 kg + .150 kg) = .035 kg of steam condensed then cooled to 71 C. The thermal energy change of the calorimeter plus the water is .150 kg * 420 J/(kg C) * 56 C + .34 kg * 4187 J / (kg C) * 56 C = 83,250 J, approx. The thermal energy change of the condensed water is -Hf * .035 kg + .035 kg * 4187 J / (kg C) * (-29 C) = -Hf * .035 kg - 2930 J, approx. Net thermal energy change is zero, so we have 83,250 J - Hf * .035 kg - 4930 J = 0 so that Hf = 79,000 J / (.035 kg) = 2,257,000 J / kg. **
