Answer:

∴The air cannot be made to flow in with the given pump at the given conditions.

Explanation:

Given:

  • gauge pressure of bicycle tyre, P_g=59\ lb.in^{-2}
  • length of cylinder of the pump, l=17.4\ in
  • area of the the cylinder of the pump, a= 3\ in^2
  • we have the density of air at STP, \rho=4.4256\times 10^{-5}\ lb.in^{-2}

The piston must be pushed more than the pressure inside the tyre:

P_g=\rho\times V\div a

59=4.4256\times 10^{-5}\times a\times h\div a

h=13.33\times 10^5\ in

∴The air cannot be made to flow in with the given pump at the given conditions.

An athlete stretches a spring an extra 40.0 cm beyond its initial length. how much energy has he transferred to the spring, if t
marissa [1.9K]
The energy transferred to the spring is given by:
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where 
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation of the spring with respect its initial length

Let's convert the data into the SI units:
k=52.9 N/cm = 5290 N/m
x=40.0 cm=0.4 m

so now we can use these data inside the equation ,to find the energy transferred to the spring:
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2= \frac{1}{2}(5290 N/m)(0.4m)^2=423.2 J

Examine the scenario. Two neutral objects, a balloon and a sweater, are rubbed against each other. Which choice most accurately
Ne4ueva [31]

Electrons move from the sweater to the balloon. The sweater becomes positively charged, while the balloon becomes negatively charged.

Explanation:

  • Sweater is a conductive material, which means it readily gives away its electrons.
  • Consequently, when you rub a balloon on Sweater, this causes the electrons to move from the Sweater to the balloon's surface.
  • The rubbed part of the balloon now acquired  a negative charge. Objects made of rubber, such as the balloon, are basically electrical insulators, meaning that they resist electric charges flowing through them.
  • This is why only part of the balloon may have a negative charge (where the wool rubbed it) and the rest may remain neutral after electrostatic process.

How is the kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance different
Valentin [98]

All particles have energy, and the energy varies depending on the temperature the sample of matter is in, which determines if the substance is a solid, liquid, or gas. Solid particles have the least amount of energy, and gas particles have the greatest amount of energy
