The energy released from condensation in thunderstorms can be very large. Calculate the energy (in J) released into the atmosphere for a small storm of radius 2.6 km, assuming that 2.5 cm of rain is precipitated uniformly over this area. (Assume that the rain is precipitated over a circular area and that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.) _________J
The average electricity consumption of a house in Gainesville is known to be 1,036 kWh in a month (One month = 30 days). They would like to install solar panels of 30 % efficiency to generate this electricity. Given that the average solar power density in Gainesville is 5.47 kWh/m2/day, how much surface area must the panels occupy? Calculate the result in m² but do not write the unit. Round off you E swer to a whole number (zero decimal place.)
How much energy does Hannah the Standard Poodle absorb from the sun during a 37-minute walk? Hannah’s fur is matte black, so she absorbs nearly all of the sunlight that hits her; from above, she looks approximately like a rectangle that is 92 cm long and 32 cm wide. The solar intensity in Hannah’s Orange County neighborhood is 1200 W/m2.
A 0.5 kg block slides on a rough horizontal table top. Just before it hits a horizontal ideal spring its speed is 4.28 m/s. It compresses the spring 3.59 cm before coming to rest. If the spring constant is 1673.75 N/m, the internal energy of the block and the table top, during the spring compression, must have increased by: a. -4.53 J b. -0.86 J c. -3.50 J d. -5.13 J

1. A person with a basal metabolic rate of 90 W has a continuous (24-hr) average power output, without any physical exertion, of 90 W. If this person consumes 2500 food calories per day and burns 500 calories per day doing additional physical activity, will they gain or lose weight?
Question 10. A detective has been called to the scene of a crime where a dead body has just been discovered. The detective arrives at 9:00 AM and begins to investigate. Immediately, the temperature of the body is taken and is found to be 90.3°F. The detective checks the programmable thermostat and finds that the room has been kept at a constant 68.0°F for the past 3 days. After the evidence from the crime scene is collected, the temperature of the body is taken once more and found to be 89.0°F. This last temperature reading was taken exactly one hour after the first one. The following day, the detective is asked "At what time did our victim die?" Assuming that the victim's body temperature was normal (98.6°F) prior to death, what should the detective answer?
Plasma spraying is a process used to coat the surface of a material with a protective layer to prevent material degradation. In a plasma spray process, the protective coating in powder form is injected into a plasma jet. The powder is then heated until the droplets coalesce and are propelled over the surface of the material. Once deposited on the surface of the material, the molten droplets solidify and form a protective coating layer. Consider a plasma spray process using alumina (k = 30 W/m K, ρ = 3970 kg/m³ and cp = 800 J/kg K) powder that is injected into a plasma jet at T∞ = 15,000 ° C and h = 10,000 W/m²·K. Alumina powder is made up of spherical-shaped particles with a mean diameter of 60 μm and a melting point of 2300 °C.Solving, the amount of time it would take for the particles, with an initial temperature of 20 °C, to reach their melting point from the time they are injected into the plasma jet is 5,25x10 -4 s. The mathematical resolution is in the image. I only need the…
