Sam's bike tire contains 15 units of air particles and has a volume of 160mL. Under these conditions the pressure reads 13 psi.

The tire develops a leak. Now it contains 10 units of air particles and has contracted to a volume of 150mL. What would the tire pressure be now?

Use ideal gas equation, with T constant.

pV =nRT => pV / n = RT = constant

n = K* [units of particles]

pV / [units of particles] = constant

13 psi * 160 mL / 15 units = p * 150 mL / 10 units =>

=> p = [13psi*160mL/15units]*[10units/150mL] = 9.2 psi

A bus start from rest and then moves with a constant acceleration of 2m/s square. calculate its time of traven if its final velo
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Its Answer is 10 s.

Explanation:

As acceleration is defined as time rate of change of velocity. So,

a =  ( vf - vi ) ÷ t

2 = (20 - 0 ) ÷ t

2 =  20 ÷  t

t = 20 ÷ 2

t  = 10 s

We have put initial velocity as zero because  body is starting from rest.

<em>Hope it helps.</em>

A merry-go-round with a rotational inertia of 600 kg m2 and a radius of 3.0 m is initially at rest. A 20 kg boy approaches the m
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The velocity of the merry-go-round after the boy hops on the merry-go-round is 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round = 600 kg·m²

The radius of the merry-go-round = 3.0 m

The mass of the boy = 20 kg

The speed with which the boy approaches the merry-go-round = 5.0 m/s

F_T \cdot r = I \cdot \alpha  = m \cdot r^2  \cdot \alpha

Where;

F_T = The tangential force

I =  The rotational inertia

m = The mass

α = The angular acceleration

r = The radius of the merry-go-round

For the merry go round, we have;

I_m \cdot \alpha_m  = I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t}

I_m = The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round

\alpha _m = The angular acceleration of the merry-go-round

v _m = The linear velocity of the merry-go-round

t = The time of motion

For the boy, we have;

I_b \cdot \alpha_b  = m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}

Where;

I_b = The rotational inertia of the boy

\alpha _b = The angular acceleration of the boy

v _b = The linear velocity of the boy

t = The time of motion

When the boy jumps on the merry-go-round, we have;

I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t} = m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}

Which gives;

v_m = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t} \cdot r \cdot t}{I_m} = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2  \cdot v_b}{I_m}

From which we have;

v_m =  \dfrac{20 \times 3^2  \times 5}{600} =  1.5

The velocity of the merry-go-round, v_m, after the boy hops on the merry-go-round = 1.5 m/s.

If an object is floating in water does that mean that the weight is zero?
gayaneshka [121]
Nope. It means that the density of the object is less than the density of the water it's in, making it float. Conversely, if the density of an object is greater than the density of the water it's in, then the object will sink. :)
