This behavior suggests that the dominant excitations at low temperature are long-wavelength phonons. The only important difference between phonons in a liquid and phonons in a solid is that a liquid cannot transmit transversely polarized waves-sound waves must be longitudinaL The speed of sound in liquid 4He is 238 mis, and the density is 0.145 g/cm3 . From these numbers, calculate the phonon contribution to the heat capacity of 4He in the low-temperature limit, and compare to the measured value.arrow_forward2.

- The hot water needs of a household are to be met by heating water at 55°F to 200°F by a parabolic solar collector at a rate of 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.arrow_forwardTwo very large parallel plates are maintained at uniform temperatures of T1 = 600 K and T2 = 400 K and have emissivities «1 = 0.5 and «2 = 0.9, respectively.

It is filled with water. The bottle absorbs 60% of the light that shines on it as it lies on its side in the noonday sun, with intensity 1000 W/m2. By how much will the temperature of the water increase in 5.0 min if there’s negligible heat loss to the surrounding air?arrow_forward
