The weight of the fuel when the tank is filled is 2.13 kip.

The density of the fuel of the jet engine= 1.32 slug/ft³

The total volume of the fuel that can be filled in the fuel tank of a jet engine = 50 ft³

The specific weight of the fuel when the tank is filled is,

$\gamma = p \times g$

$\gamma = 1.32 \times 32.2$

$\gamma = 42.504 \: ib/ft ^{3}$

The specific weight of the fuel when the tank is filled is 42.504 ib/ft ³.

The weight of the fuel when the tank is filled is,

$w = \gamma \times ∀$

$w = 42.5.4 \times 50$

$w = 2.13 \: kip$

The weight of the fuel is 2.13 kip.

Therefore, the weight of the fuel when the tank is filled is 2.13 kip.

Radio waves from an fm station have a frequency of 103.1 mhz. if the waves travel with a speed of 3.00 ´ 10 m/s, what is the wav

ryzh [129]

The frequency of the radio waves from the fm station is:
$f=103.1 MHz = 103.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz$
And the speed of the waves corresponds to the speed of light:
$v=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$
Therefore, the wavelength of the radio waves can be found by using the following equation:
$\lambda= \frac{v}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{103.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=2.91 m$

How does heat play a role in both the formation of folded mountains and the formation of volcanic mountains?

aliya0001 [1]

Among the most striking of geologic features are mountains, created by several types of tectonic forces, including collisions between continental masses. Mountains have long had an impact on the human psyche, for instance by virtue of their association with the divine in the Greek myths, the Bible<span>, and other religious or cultural traditions. One does not need to be a geologist to know what a mountain is; indeed there is no precise definition of mountain, though in most cases the distinction between a mountain and a hill is fairly obvious. On the other hand, the defining characteristics of a volcano are more apparent. Created by violent tectonic forces, a volcano usually is considered a mountain, and almost certainly is one after it erupts, pouring out molten rock and other substances from deep in the </span>earth<span>.

A heat engine performs (245 + A) J of work in each cycle while also delivering (142 + B) J of heat to the cold reservoir. Find t

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The value is $\eta = 54.4 \%$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The work input is $W = ( 245 + A ) \ J$

The heat delivered is $Q = (142 + B) \ J$

The value of A is A = 14

The value of B is B = 72

Generally the efficiency of the heat engine is mathematically represented as

$\eta = \frac{W}{Q_t}$

Here $Q_t$ is the total out energy produce by the heat engine and this is mathematically represented as

$Q_t= Q + W$

=> $Q_t= 245 + A + 142 + B$

=> $Q_t= 390 + A+B$

So

$\eta = \frac{245 + A }{390 + A+ B}$

=> $\eta = 0.544$

=> $\eta = 0.544 *100$

=> $\eta = 54.4 \%$
