A helium weather balloon is filled to a volume of 219 m3 on the ground, where the pressure is 754 torr and the temperature is 29

8 K. As the balloon rises, the pressure and temperature decrease, so it is important to know how much the gas will expand to ensure that the balloon can uphold the expansion. What is the volume at an altitude of 10,000 m, where the atmospheric pressure is 210. torr and the temperature is 230 K?

Answer:

$V_2 = 606.9 m^3$

Explanation:

By ideal gas equation law we know that

PV = nRT

now we know that when balloon rises to certain level then the number of moles will remains same

so we can say

$n_1 = n_2$

$\frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

now plug in all data to find the final volume of the balloon

$\frac{754\times 219}{R(298)} = \frac{210 \times V_2}{R(230)}$

$V_2 = \frac{230\times 754 \times 219}{210 \times 298}$

$V_2 = 606.9 m^3$

During normal beating, a heart creates a maximum 3.95-mV potential across 0.305 m of a person’s chest, creating a 0.75-Hz electr

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

E = 0.0130 V/m.

Explanation:

The electric field is related to the potential difference as follows:

$E = \frac{\Delta V}{d}$

<u>Where:</u>

E: is electric field

ΔV: is the potential difference = 3.95 mV

d: is the distance of a person's chest = 0.305 m

Then, the electric field is:

$E = \frac{\Delta V}{d} = \frac{3.95 \cdot 10^{-3} V}{0.305 m} = 0.0130 V/m$

Therefore, the maximum electric field created is 0.0130 V/m.

I hope it helps you!

Suppose a baseball pitcher throws the ball to his catcher.

amm1812

a) Same

b) Same

c) Same

d) Throw the ball takes longer

e) F is larger when the ball is catched

Explanation:

a)

The change in speed of an object is given by:

$\Delta v = |v-u|$

where

u is the initial velocity of the object

v is the final velocity of the object

The change in speed is basically the magnitude of the change in velocity (because velocity is a vector, while speed is a scalar, so it has no direction).

In this problem:

- In situation 1 (pitcher throwing the ball), the initial velocity is

u = 0 (because the ball starts from rest)

while the final velocity is v, so the change in speed is

$\Delta v=|v-0|=|v|$

- In situation 2 (catcher receiving the ball), the initial velocity is now

u = v

while the final velocity is now zero (ball coming to rest), so the change in speed is

$\Delta v =|0-v|=|-v|$

Which means that the two situations have same change in speed.

b)

The change in momentum of an object is given by

$\Delta p = m \Delta v$

where

m is the mass of the object

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

If we want to compare only the magnitude of the change in momentum of the object, then it is given by

$|\Delta p|=m|\Delta v|$

- In situation 1 (pitcher throwing the ball), the change in momentum is

$\Delta p = m|\Delta v|=m|v|=mv$

- In situation 2 (catcher receiving the ball), the change in momentum is

$\Delta p = m\Delta v = m|-v|=mv$

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum is the same (but the direction is opposite)

c)

The impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

$I=\Delta p$

where

I is the impulse

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum

As we saw in part b), the change in momentum of the ball in the two situations is the same, therefore the impulse exerted on the ball will also be the same, in magnitude.

However, the direction will be opposite, as the change in momentum has opposite direction in the two situations.

d)

To compare the time of impact in the two situations, we have to look closer into them.

- When the ball is thrown, the hand "moves together" with the ball, from back to ahead in order to give it the necessary push. We can verify therefore that the time is longer in this case.

- When the ball is cacthed, the hand remains more or less "at rest", it doesn't move much, so the collision lasts much less than the previous situation.

Therefore, we can say that the time of impact is longer when the ball is thrown, compared to when it is catched.

e)

The impulse exerted on an object can also be rewritten as the product between the force applied on the object and the time of impact:

$I=F\Delta t$

where

I is the impulse

F is the force applied

$\Delta t$ is the time of impact

This can be rewritten as

$F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}$

In this problem, in the two situations,

- I (the impulse) is the same in both situations

- $\Delta t$ when the ball is thrown is larger than when it is catched

Therefore, since F is inversely proportional to $\Delta t$ , this means that the force is larger when the ball is catched.

Electromagnetic waves differ from the other types of waves because they are

Ronch [10]

Correct answer choice is :

B) Able to travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are applied to carry long/short/FM wavelength radio waves, and TV/telephone/wireless signals or services. They are also effective for transferring energy in the form of microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves change from mechanical waves in that they do not need a medium to generate. This means that electromagnetic waves can move not only in the air and solid matters but also in the void of space.

svetoff [14.1K]

Work done against gravity to climb upwards is always stored in the form of gravitational potential energy

so we can say

$W = mgh$

here h = vertical height raised

so here we know that

$h = 14.1 sin7.3 km$

here we have

$h = 1.79 km$

now from above equation

$W = (83 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.79 \times 10^3 m)$

$W = 1.46 \times 10^6 J$

so work done will be given by above value
