Taking into account the definition of velocity, Clara's average velocity is 0.5 m/s.

<h3>Definition of velocity</h3>

Velocity is a physical magnitude that relates the displacement of an object, the time it takes to make this change in position and direction. So it is considered a vector magnitude.

In other words, the velocity can be defined as the amount of space traveled per unit of time with which a body moves, considering the direction, and can be calculated using the expression:

velocity= distance traveled÷ time

<h3>Average velocity of Clara</h3>

Clara rushes 30 m to a truck then turns and walks back. Total travel is 120s. Then, you know:

  • distance traveled= 30m rushing + 30m walking back= 60 m
  • time= 120 s

Replacing in the definition of velocity:

velocity= 60 m÷ 120 s

Solving:

<u><em>velocity= 0.5 m/s</em></u>

Finally, Clara's average velocity is 0.5 m/s.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

a)54L/min

b)0.845

Explanation:

a) A x V=A_1V_1+ A_2V_2+A_3V_3

where suffix 1,2,3 refers to the three pipes.

            =27L/min+16L/min+11 L/min

            =54L/min

b) A x V=54L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v

   d= 2 cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v = 54

v= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2}

-> A_1 x V_1=27L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d_1^2 x v_1

d_1= 1.3cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v_1 = 27

v_1= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2}

Next is to find the ratio of speed i.e \frac{v}{v_1}

\frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2} / \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2} => \frac{54}{27} \frac{1.3^2}{2^2}

\frac{v}{v_1}= 0.845

Calculate the specific heat at constant volume of water vapor, assuming the nonlinear triatomic molecule has three translational
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

I) c=1385.667\frac{J}{kg K}

II)The difference from the value obtained on part I is: 2000-1385.67 =614.33 \frac{J}{Kg K}

The possible reason of this difference is that the vibrational motion can increase the value, since if we take in count this factor we will have a higher heat capacity, because molecules with vibrational motion require more heat to vibrate and necessary higher specific heat capacity.

Explanation:

From the problem we have the molar mass given M=18\frac{gr}{mol} of water vapor and at constant volume condition. It's important to say that the vapour molecules have 3 transitionsl and 3 rotational degrees of freedom and the rotational motion no contribution.

Part I

Calculate the specific heat at constant volume of water vapor, assuming the nonlinear triatomic molecule has three translational and three rotational degrees of freedom and that vibrational motion does not contribute. The molar mass of water is 18.0 g/mol=0.018kg/mol.

Let C_v (\frac{J}{Kg K}) the molar heat capacity at constant volume and this amount represent the quantity of heat absorbed by mole.

Let C (\frac{J}{Kg K}) the specific heat capcity this value represent the heat capacity aboserbed by mass.

For the problem we have a total of 6 degrees of freedom and from the thoery we know that for each degree of freedom the molar heat capacity at constant volume is given by C_v =\frac{R}{2} so the total for the 6 degrees of freedom would be:

C_v =6*\frac{R}{2}=3R=3x8.314\frac{J}{mol K}=24.942\frac{J}{mol K}

And by definition we know that the specific heat capacity is defined:

c=\frac{C_V}{M}

If we replace all the values we have:

c=\frac{24.942\frac{J}{mol K}}{0.018\frac{kg}{mol}}=1385.667\frac{J}{kg K}

So on this case the specific heat capacity with constant volume and with three translational and three rotational degrees of freedom is c=1385.667\frac{J}{kg K}

Part II

The actual specific heat of water vapor at low pressures is about 2000 J/(kg * K). Compare this with your calculation.

The difference from the value obtained on part I is: 2000-1385.67 =614.33 \frac{J}{Kg K}

The possible reason of this difference is that the vibrational motion can increase the value, since if we take in count this factor we will have a higher heat capacity, because molecules with vibrational motion require more heat to vibrate and necessary higher specific heat capacity.

a cyclist must travel 800 km. how many days will the trip take if the cyclist travels 8/h day at an average speed of 16km/h
sergey [27]
It would b 6 days and 6 hours
You would times 16 by 8 which gives 128km a day. To find how many days you would divide 800 by how many kilometres they cover a day which is 128
So 800/128 =6.25 which converts to 6 days and 6 hours.
