he hot water needs of a household are to be met by heating water at 55oF to 200oF by a parabolic solar collector at a rate of 5.4 lbm/s. Water flows through a 1.25-in-diameter thin aluminum tube whose outer surface is blackanodized in order to maximize its solar absorption ability. The centerline of the tube coincides with the focal line of the collector, and a glass sleeve is placed outside the tube to minimize the heat losses. If solar energy is transferred to water at a net rate of 350 Btu/h per ft length of the tube, determine the required length of the parabolic collector to meet the hot water requirements of this house. Also, determine the surface temperature of the tube at the exit. The properties of water at the average temperature of (55 200)/2

Imagine an isolated positive point charge q (many times larger than the charge on a single proton). there is a charged particle a (whose charge is much smaller than charge q) at a distance from the point charge q. on which of the following quantities does the magnitude of the electric field created by charge q at particle a's position depend? check all that apply.the type of the charge on the charged particle athe relative orientation between q and a (while the distance between q and a is fixed)the specific location of the charged particle a (while the distance between q and a is fixed)the amount of the charge on the point charge qthe specific location of the point charge q (while the distance between q and a is fixed)the distance between the point charge q and the charged particle athe amount of the charge on the charged particle a
