To penetrate armor, a projectile's point concentrates force in a small area, creating a stress large enough that the armor fails

. A species of jellyfish launches a pointed needle that can penetrate the hard shell of a crustacean. The rapid deceleration on impact creates a 32 μN force on the tip, which has a very small 15 nm radius.

Answer:

4.527×10^{10} N/m^2

Explanation:

Assuming that the resulting stress is asked in the question in N/m^2

The stress is given by the expression

σ = F/A

F= 32μN and A, Area= πr^2

r, radius = 15 nm

Putting values we get

$\sigma = \frac{32\times10^{-6}}{\pi\times (15\times10^{-9})^2}$

= 4.527×10^{10} N/m^2

hence the resulting stress is 4.527×10^{10} N/m^2

In what state must matter exist for fusion reactions to take place

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Plasma

Explanation:

For a fusion reaction to take place, there must be conditions in which the particles have extreme thermal kinetic energies, in this way the collisions that cause the nuclear fusion are generated. Therefore, it is necessary to reach very high temperatures, in which the state of matter will necessarily be plasma.

Fred wants to summarize mitosis in the cell cycle. Which statement describes mitosis?

salantis [7]

The statement that most accurately describes mitosis simply is <span>that mitosis is a type of cell division in which one cell (the mother) divides to produce two new cells (the daughters) that are genetically identical to itself</span>. This is the most basic textbook definition, that is summary, of what the mitosis is.

An excited hydrogen atom releases an electromagnetic wave to return to its normal state. You use your futuristic dual electric/m

aniked [119]

Answer: The released electromagnetic wave will travel in +y direction

Explanation:

It should be noted that, in a situation, whereby an excited hydrogen atom releases an electromagnetic wave to return to its normal state. And it's also evident that the futuristic dual electric/magnetic field tester on the electromagnetic wave to find the directions of the electric field and magnetic field is used. Eventually, your device tells you that the electric field is pointing in the positive y direction and the magnetic field is pointing in the positive x direction. Therefore, the released electromagnetic wave will travel in +y direction.

An electric air heater consists of a horizontal array of thin metal strips that are each 10 mm long in the direction of an airst

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

Given that,

$T_1 =$ 500°C

$T_2$ = 25°C

d = 0.2m

L = 10mm = 0.01m

U₀ = 2m/s

Calculate average temperature

$\\T_{avg} = \frac{T_1 + T_2}{2} \\\\T_{avg} = \frac{500 + 25}{2} \\\\T_{avg} = 262.5$

262.5 + 273

= 535.5K

From properties of air table A-4 corresponding to $T_{avg}$ = 535.5K $\approx 550K$

k = 43.9 × 10⁻³W/m.k

v = 47.57 × 10⁻⁶ m²/s

$P_r = 0.63$

A)

Number for the first strips is equal to

$R_e_x = \frac{u_o.L}{v}$

$R_e_x = \frac{2\times 0.01}{47.57 \times 10^-^6 }\\\\= 420.4$

Calculating heat transfer coefficient from the first strip

$h_1 = \frac{k}{L} \times 0.664 \times R_e_x^1^/^2 \times P_r^1^/^3$

$h_1 = \frac{43.9 \times 10^-^3}{0.01} \times 0.664\times420 \times 4^1^/^2 \times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 52.6W/km^2$

The rate of convection heat transfer from the first strip is

$q_1 = h_1\times(L\times d)\times(T_1 - T_2)\\\\q_1 = 52.6 \times (0.01\times0.2)\times(500-25)\\\\q_1 = 50W$

The rate of convection heat transfer from the fifth trip is equal to

$q_5 = (5 \times h_o_-_5-4\times h_o_-_4) \times(L\times d)\times (T_1 -T_2)$

$h_o_-_5 = \frac{k}{5L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 5L}{v} )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.05} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.05}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 25.5W/Km^2$

Calculating $h_o_-_4$

$h_o_-_4 = \frac{k}{4L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 4L}{v } )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.04} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.04}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 26.3W/Km^2$

The rate of convection heat transfer from the tenth strip is

$q_1_0 = (10 \times h_o_-_1_0-9\times h_o_-_9) \times(L\times d)\times (T_1 -T_2)$

$h_o_-_1_0 = \frac{k}{10L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 10L}{v } )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.1} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.1}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 16.6W/Km^2$

Calculating

$h_o_-_9 = \frac{k}{9L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 9L}{v } )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.09} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.09}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 17.5W/Km^2$

Calculating the rate of convection heat transfer from the tenth strip

$q_1_0 = (10 \times h_o_-_1_0-9\times h_o_-_9) \times(L\times d)\times (T_1 -T_2)\\\\q_1_0 = (10 \times 16.6 -9\times 17.5) \times(0.01\times 0.2)\times (500 -25)\\\\=8.1W$

The rate of convection heat transfer from 25th strip is equal to

$q_2_5 = (25 \times h_o_-_2_5-24\times h_o_-_2_4) \times(L\times d)\times (T_1 -T_2)$

Calculating $h_o_-_2_5$

$h_o_-_2_5 = \frac{k}{25L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 25L}{v } )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.25} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.25}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 10.5W/Km^2$

Calculating $h_o_-_2_4$

$h_o_-_2_4 = \frac{k}{24L} \times 0.664 \times (\frac{u_o\times 24L}{v } )^1^/^2\times Pr^1^/^3\\\\= \frac{43.9\times10^-^3}{0.24} \times0.664\times (\frac{2 \times 0.24}{47.57 \times 10^-^6} )^1^/^2\times 0.683^1^/^3\\\\= 10.7W/Km^2$

Calculating the rate of convection heat transfer from the tenth strip

$q_2_5 = (25 \times h_o_-_2_5-24\times h_o_-_2_4) \times(L\times d)\times (T_1 -T_2)\\\\q_1_0 = (25 \times 10.5 -24\times 10.7) \times(0.01\times 0.2)\times (500 -25)\\\\=5.4W$
