By definition,
q = 1.22y/D

Where,
q = min. angle
y = wavelength
D = Aperture diameter = diameter of the antenna

At distance "x" from the antenna,
L =xq = 1.22xy/D
Where, L = Min. distance

But, y =c/f = (3*10^8)/(16*10^9) = 0.01875 m

Substituting;
L = 1.22*5*10^3*0.01875/2.1 = 54.46 m

diamong [38]

Answer:

a= 23.65 ft/s²

Explanation:

given

r= 14.34m

ω=3.65rad/s

Ф=Ф₀ + ωt

t = Ф - Ф₀/ω

= (98-0)×\frac{\pi}{180}/3.65

98°= 1.71042 rad

1.7104/3.65

t= 0.47 s

r₁(not given)

assuming r₁ =20 in

r₁ = r₀ + ut(uniform motion)

u = r₁ - r₀/t

r₀ = 14.34 in= 1.195 ft

r₁ = 20 in = 1.67 ft

= (1.667 - 1.195)/0.47

0.472/0.47

u= 1.00ft/s

acceleration at collar p

a=rω²

= 1.67 × 3.65²

a = 22.25ft/s²

acceleration of collar p related to the rod = 0

coriolis acceleration = 2ωu

= 2× 3.65×1 = 7.3 ft/s²

acceleration of collar p

= 22.5j + 0 + 7.3i

√(22.5² + 7.3²)

the magnitude of the acceleration of the collar P just as it reaches B in ft/s²

a= 23.65 ft/s²

Describe each of the following as a physical or chemical property. a. Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature.b. Apple slice
Cloud [144]

Answer: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature: Physical property

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid: Physical property

Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: Chemical property

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: Chemical property

Explanation:

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed during physical change.

Example:  Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

A certain substance has a heat of vaporization of 37.51 kJ / mol. At what Kelvin temperature will the vapor pressure be 3.50 tim
stellarik [79]

Answer:

T2=336K

Explanation:

Clausius-Clapeyron equation is used to determine the vapour pressure at different temperatures:

where:

In(P2/P1) = ΔvapH/R(1/T1 - 1/T2)

p1 and p2 are the vapour pressures at temperatures 

T1 and T2

ΔvapH = the enthalpy  of vaporization of the liquid

R = the Universal Gas Constant

p1=p1, T1=307K

p2=3.50p1; T2=?

ΔvapH=37.51kJ/mol=37510J/mol

R=8.314J.K^-1moL^-1

In(3.50P1/P1)= (37510J/mol)/(8.314J.K^-1)*(1/307 - 1/T2)

P1 and P1 cancelled out:

In(3.50)=4511.667(T2 - 307/307T2)

1.253=14.696(T2 - 307/T2)

1.253=(14.696T2) - (14.696*307)/T2

1.253T2=14.696T2 - 4511.672

Therefore,

4511.672=14.696T2 - 1.253T2

4511.672=13.443T2

So therefore, T2=4511.672/13.443=335.61

Approximately, T2=336K
