Consider 20 deg.C. as room temperature.
From tables,
Silver has a resistivity of 1.6*10^-8 ohm-m at 20 deg.C, and it increases by 0.0038 ohm-m per deg.K increase.
Therefore if the temperature rise above 20 deg.C is T, then silver will have resistivity of
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) ohm-m
At room temperature, the resistivity of tungsten (from tables) is 5.6*10^-8.
The resistivity of silver will be 4 times that of tungsten (at room temperature) when
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) = 4*5.6*10^-8
1 + 0.0038T = 14
T = 13/.0038 = 3421 deg.K approx
Answer: 20 + 3421 = 3441 °C
Answer:
B. Water and sugar.
Explanation:
In the given options water and sugar would be the poor conductor of electricity. Other given options such as water and salt, water and Hcl and water and NaOH are better conductor of electricity because Hcl ,NaOH, salt (Nacl) can break into their ionic form whereas water and sugar will not.
Answer:
The heat transferred into the system is 183.5 J.
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics relates the heat transfer into or out of a system to the change of internal and the work done on the system, through the following equations.
ΔU = Q - W
where;
ΔU is the change in internal energy
Q is the heat transfer into the system
W is the work done by the system
Given;
ΔU = 155 J
W = 28.5 J
Q = ?
155 = Q - 28.5
Q = 155 + 28.5
Q = 183.5 J
Therefore, the heat transferred into the system is 183.5 J.
Answer:
The constriction causes the mercury column to break under tension, leaving a vacuum between the bottom of the column and that in the bulb, and the top of the column stays still at the position reached in the body - a "peak hold" system.
