Answer:
a. 313.171081 miles/hour
b. 0.434m

To calculate the speed in miles per hour, you need to change meterinto miles (1m= 0.086992mile) , then second into hour(1s= 1/3600h). The calculation would be:
140 m/s x 0.086992mile/m : 1/3600 s/hour= 313.171081 miles/hour.

To calculate the next question you need to know that mili second= 1/1000 second. Then the calculation would be:
140m/s x 3.1ms x 1/1000= 0.434m

Air, considered an ideal gas, is contained in an insulated piston-cylinder assembly outfitted with a paddle wheel. It is initial
Maru [420]

Our data are,

State 1:

P_1= 10psi=68.95kPa\\V_1 = 1ft^3=0.02831m^3\\T_1 = 100\°F = 310.93K

State 2:

P_2 =5psi=34.474kPa\\V_2 = 3ft^3=0.0899m^3

We know as well that 3BTU=3.16kJ/K

To find the mass we apply the ideal gas formula, which is given by

P_1V_1=mRT_1

Re-arrange for m,

m= \frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}\\m= \frac{68.95*0.02831}{(0.287)310.9}\\m=0.021893kg=0.04806lbm\\

Because of the pressure, temperature and volume ratio of state 1 and 2, we have to

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

Replacing,

T_2 = \frac{P_2V_2}{P_1V_1}T_1\\T_2 =\frac{34.474*0.0844}{68.95*0.02831}*310.93\\T_2 = 464.217K=375.5\°F

For conservative energy we have, (Cv = 0.718)

W = m C_v = 0.718  \Delta T +dw\\dw = W - mv\Delta T\\dw = 3.16-(0.0218*0.718)(454.127-310.93)\\dw = 0.765kJ=0.72BTU

A compound has a melting point of 812°C. what type of bonding is in the compound?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Ionic compound.

Explanation:

812° C is a very high melting point. Such high melting points are generally ionic compound. Ionic compounds are have very strong bond between the elements ( electrostatic bond). In order to break this bond, large amount of heat energies are needed. So, they have high melting point. Also, Ionic compound are very good conductors of electricity.

The theoretic volume and pressure of a gas at zero Kelvin are zero. Moreover, there is zero kinetic energy present in the gas. This is because at zero Kelvin, none of the particles are moving.

Ann has a geography test next Friday. She needs to know all the US states and their capitals. Provide three effective techniques
Mumz [18]

Answer: THIS IS THE EXACT ANSWER

Three effective techniques Ann could use to learn all the US states and their state capitals are visualization and association, creating a mnemonic device, and rhyming. She could learn some of the states and their capitals by visualizing her own experiences in or about the state. As an example of association, if Ann visited Idaho last winter to see her twin brothers, she might think “I went to Idaho to visit the boys” (sounds like Boise). By employing association, she connects her own life experience to the information she wants to remember to make recalling the information easier. To remember the capital of Washington, Ann might create a mnemonic device like “George Washington went to the Olympics” (Washington’s capital is Olympia). Mnemonic devices organize information to encode it in a way that helps with recall. To effectively use rhyming, she might remember Michigan is a northern state and use “Reindeer prancing in Lansing.” Rhyming provides a cue that helps with recall. All three of these techniques work in the encoding and retrieval stages.
