A metal rod that is 30.0cm long expands by 0.0650 cm when its temperature is raised from 0.0°Cand 100°C. A rod of a different metal and of the same length expands by 0.0350 cm for the same rise in temperature. A third rod, also 30.0 cm long, is made up of pieces of each of the above metals placed end to end and expands 0.0580 cm between0.0°C and 100°C. Find the length of each portion of the composite rod?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The length of each portion A and B of rod is 32.0 cm and 7 cm respectively.

Step by step solution

01

Concept/Significance of

step 1 is missing in the document.

02

Determination of formula for the length of rods

The change in length of the metal rods is given by,

∆L=∆LA+∆LB

Here, ∆LAis the change in length of rod A and ∆LBis the change in the length of B.

The value of ∆LAis given by,

∆LA=αALA∆T

Here, αAis the coefficient of expansion, LAis the length of rod A and ∆Tis the change in temperature.

Similarly,

∆LB=αBLB∆T

Here, αBis the coefficient of expansion, LBis the length of rod B and ∆Tis the change in temperature.

03

Determination of the value of length of each portion of the composite rod

the length equation the value of LAand LBis given by,

LA=∆L/∆T--0.300αBαA-αB

And

LB=30cm-LA

Substitute all the values in the above two equations.

LA=0.058×10-2m/100°C-0.300m1.65×10-5°C-11.00×10-5°C-1=23.0cmLB=30cm-23cm=7cm

Thus, the length of each portion A and B of rod is 23.0 cm and 7 cm respectively.

In an evacuated enclosure, a vertical cylindrical tank of diameter D is sealed by a 3.00kg circular disk that can move up and down without friction. Beneath the disk is a quantity of ideal gas at temperature T in the cylinder figure. Initially the disk is at rest at a distance h = 4.00 m above the bottom of the tank. When a lead brick of mass 9.00 kg is gently placed on the disk, the disk moves downward. If the temperature of the gas is kept constant and no gas escapes from the tank, what distance above the bottom of the tank is the disk when it again comes to rest?

The prevailing winds on the Hawaiian island of Kauai blow from the northeast. The winds cool as they go up the slope of Mt. Waialeale (elevation 1523 m), causing water vapor to condense and rain to fall. There is much more precipitation at the summit than at the base of the mountain. In fact, Mt. Waialeale is the rainiest spot on earth, averaging 11.7 m of rainfall a year. But what makes the winds cool?

On a warm summer day, a large mass of air (atmospheric pressure1.01×105Pa) is heated by the ground to26°C 26.0°C and then begins to rise through the cooler surrounding air. (This can be treated approximately as an adiabatic process; why?) Calculate the temperature of the air mass when it has risen to a level at which atmospheric pressure is only0.850×105Pa. Assume that air is an ideal gas, with y= 1.40. (This rate of cooling for dry, rising air, corresponding to roughly 1 C° per 100 m of altitude, is called the dry adiabatic lapse rate.)
