An object is 12 m long, 0.65 m wide, and 13 cm high. Calculate the volume of this object.

1 answer:

6 0

The volume corresponds to the measure of the space occupied by a body. From the given dimensions we can intuit that we are looking to find the Volume of an Cuboid, that is, an orthogonal rectangular prism, whose faces form straight dihedral angles.

Mathematically the volume of this body is given as

$V = lWh$

Where,

L = Length

W = Width

H = High

$V = (12)(0.65)(13*10^{-2})$

$V = 1.014m^3$

Note: The value given for the height was in centimeters, so it was transformed to meters.

Name two offensive strategies that can be utilized in the game of baseball

Elden [556K]

Ans: In team offensive strategy, the baseball coach or manager may make certain calls based on the game situation. One play is called ht hit-and-run. This is case where a base runner starts running as soon as the pitcher throws the pitch. The batter is then supposed to try and make contact with the ball.

Two slits are illuminated with green light (λ = 540 nm). The slits are 0.05 mm apart and the distance to the screen is 1.5 m. At

zhenek [66]

Answer:

0.21486 mm

Explanation:

The formula for the maximum intensity is given by;

I = I_o•cos²(Φ/2)

Now,we are not given Φ but it can be expressed in terms of what we are given as; Φ = πdy/(λL)

Where;

y is the distance from the central maximum

d is the distance between the slits

λ is the wavelength

L is the distance to the screen

Thus;

I = I_o•πdy/(λL)

We are given;

d = 0.05 mm = 0.5 × 10^(-3) m

λ = 540 nm = 540 × 10^(-9) m

L = 1.25 m

I/I_o = 50% = 0.5

From earlier, we saw that;

I = I_o•πdy/(λL)

We have I/I_o = 0.5

Thus;

I/I_o = πdy/(λL)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0.5 = (π × 0.5 × 10^(-3) × y)/(540 × 10^(-9) × 1.25)

Making y the subject, we have;

y = (0.5 × 540 × 10^(-9) × 1.25)/(π × 0.5 × 10^(-3))

y = 0.00021486 m

Converting to mm, we have;

y = 0.21486 mm

In a certain process, the energy change of the system is 250 \rm kJ. The process involves 480 \rm kJ of work done by the system.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

$\Delta Q=-230kJ$

Explanation:

Using the first law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U=\Delta Q-W$

Where $\Delta U$ is the change in the internal energy of the system, in this case $\Delta U=250kJ$ , $\Delta Q$ is the heat tranferred, and $W$ is the work, $W=-480kJ$ with a negative sign since the work is done by the system.
