The unit 'mb' means millibar which is equivalent to 1/1000 of 1 bar. To convert the units from bar to atmospheres (atm) and to inches Hg (inHg), we need to know the conversion factors.

a.) 1 atm = 1.01325 bar

0.92 mb(1 bar/1000 mbar)(1 atm/1.01325 bar) =<em> 9.08×10⁻⁴ atm</em>

b.) 1 bar = 29.53 inHg

0.92 mb(1 bar/1000 mbar)(29.53 inHg/1 bar) =<em> 0.027 inHg</em>

babunello [35]

Answer:

The forms of energy involved are

1. Kinetic energy

2. Potential energy

Explanation:

The system consists of a ball initially at rest. The ball is pulled down from its equilibrium position (this builds up its potential energy) and then released. The released ball oscillates due to a continuous transition between kinetic and potential energy.

An avant-garde composer wants to use the Doppler effect in his new opera. As the soprano sings, he wants a large bat to fly towa
Allisa [31]

Answer:

     v’= 9.74 m / s

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is due to the relative movement of the sound source and the receiver of the sound, in this case we must perform the exercise in two steps, the first to find the frequency that the bat hears and then the frequency that the audience hears that also It is sitting.

Frequency shift heard by the murciela, in case the source is still and the observer (bat) moves closer

        f₁ ’= f₀ (v + v₀)/v

         

Frequency shift emitted by the speaker in the bat, in this case the source is moving away from the observer (public sitting) that is at rest

         f₂’= f₁’ v/(v - vs)

           

Note that in this case the bat is observant in one case and emitter in the other, called its velocity v’

            v’= vo = vs

Let's replace

           f₂’= f₀   (v + v’)/v   v/(v -v ’)

           f₂’= f₀   (v + v’) / (v -v ’)

           (v –v’ ) f₂’ / f₀ = v + v ’

           v’ (1+ f₂’ /f₀) = v (f₂’/fo - 1)

           v’ (1 + 1.059) = 340 (1.059 - 1)

           v’= 20.06 / 2.059

           v’= 9.74 m / s

What is your velocity if it takes you 40 seconds to walk around a circle of 50meters 3 times?​
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

0 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is displacement over time.  Displacement is the distance between your initial position and your final position.  If you walk in a circle, you end up back where you started, so your displacement is 0.  Therefore, your velocity is also 0.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

1.) The reaction is at dynamic equilibrium.

A: Nitrogen and hydrogen combine at the same rate that ammonia breaks down.

2.) Which statement about the reaction is necessarily correct?

A: Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

3.) Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

A: The reaction is reversible.

4.) What is the fastest motion that can be measured in any frame of reference?

A: 300,000 km/s

5.) Two people are on a train that is moving at 10 m/s north. They are walking 1 m/s south relative to the train. Relative to the ground, their motion is 9 m/s north.

Why are we able to use these motions to describe the motion relative to the ground?

A: The people are moving much slower than the speed of light so the ground acts as a frame of reference.

What are the coefficients in this expression?
skad [1K]

6 and \frac{1}{3}

Explanation:

The expression:

     6a - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - \frac{b}{3}

 A coefficient is a numerical constant usually placed before a variable in an expression.

They are used to multiply variables.

 Given equation is;

   6a - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - \frac{b}{3}

There are two variables in this expression which are;

  a and  - b

  6 (a) - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - b (\frac{1}{3} )

The coefficients in this expression are:

    6 and \frac{1}{3}
