What is the external-internal pressure difference when the diver's lungs are at a depth of 6.1m (about 20ft)? assume that the di

ver is in fresh water. (a scuba diver breathing from compressed air tanks can operate at greater depths than can a snorkeler, since the pressure of the air inside the scuba diver's lungs increases to match the external pressure of the water.)?

Snorkel connects the diver's lungs with the air above the water. Because of this, the pressure inside the diver's lungs is the same as the atmospheric pressure.
The static pressure of a fluid is given with this equation:
P=\rho gh
The density of water is 1000kg/m^3.
P=1000\cdot 9.81 \cdot 6.1=59841$Pa
Standart atmospheric pressure is 101<span>325Pa. 
</span>The difference is:
\Delta P=101325-59841=41484 $Pa

Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.

( \frac{ 5 cm}{1 sec} ) *( \frac{1m }{100cm})*( \frac{1km}{1000m} )*( \frac{1mi}{1.6km} ) = 0.00003125 mi/sec \\  \\ ( \frac{0.00003125 mi}{1sec} )*( \frac{60sec}{1min} )*( \frac{60min}{1hr} )=0.1125 mi/hr

How many total oxygen atoms are in the compound Molybdenum (V) Dichromate?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

1.2646\times10^{25}\ atoms

Explanation:

-The chemical formula for Molybdenum (V) Dichromate is Mo(Cr_2O_7)_3

-There are 21 moles of oxygen per one mole of Molybdenum (V) Dichromate

-We apply Avogadro's constant to find the number of atoms of oxygen:

Avogadro's \ Constant=6.022\times 10^{23} \ mol_1\\\\No\ of \ Atoms=Moles\times Avogadro's \ Constant\\\\=21\times 6.022\times 10^{23} \\\\=1.2646\times10^{25}\ atoms

Hence, there are 1.2646\times10^{25} \ atoms

Answer:

orbit the sun have very elliptical orbits

are made of frozen gas and ice

Explanation:

Comets are the made up of dry ice, frozen water, gases and dust particles. it is called dirty snow balls as their nucleus carry frozen water and pieces of rock.

Comets move around the sun in an elliptical orbits and follow Kepler's Laws saying that they move faster when closer to the Sun.

Comets have tails even when they are far from the sun and the tails that point away from the sun.

Hence, the correct options are "orbit the sun have very elliptical orbits and are made of frozen gas and ice".

Answer:

It's only 1.11 m/s2 weaker at 400 km above surface of Earth

Explanation:

Let Earth radius be 6371 km, or 6371000 m. At 400km above the Earth surface would be 6371 + 400 = 6771 km, or 6771000 m

We can use Newton's gravitational law to calculate difference in gravitational acceleration between point A (Earth surface) and point B (400km above Earth surface):

g = G\frac{M}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of Earth and r is the distance form the center of Earth to the object

\frac{g_B}{g_A} = \frac{GM/r^2_B}{GM/r^2_A}

\frac{g_B}{g_A} = \left(\frac{r_A}{r_B}\right)^2

\frac{g_B}{g_A} = \left(\frac{6371000}{6771000}\right)^2

\frac{g_B}{g_A} = 0.94^2 = 0.885

g_B = 0.885 g_A

So the gravitational acceleration at 400km above surface is only 0.885 the gravitational energy at the surface, or 0.885*9.81 = 8.7 m/s2, a difference of (9.81 - 8.7) = 1.11 m/s2.
