A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 27.2 l at a pressure of 753 mmhg and a temperature of 30.9 ∘c. the balloon rises in

the atmosphere to an altitude where the pressure is 395 mmhg and the temperature is -15.9 ∘c. assuming the balloon can freely expand, calculate the volume of the balloon at this altitude.

By idea gas equation we can say

PV = nRT

here P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = Avagadro gas constant

T = temperature

So from above expression you can see that for constant number of moleswe can say

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

\frac{753*27.2}{273+30.9} = \frac{395*V_2}{273-15.9}

67.4 = 1.54*V_2

V_2 = 43.9 L

So finally the volume will be 43.9 L

A complete circuit contains two parallel connected devices and a generator for providing the electromotive force. The resistance
irga5000 [103]
We are asked to solve and determine the magnitude of the current flowing through the first device. In order for us to have a better understanding of the problem, we can refer to the attached picture which contains electric circuit diagram. Since it the problem we are already given with an electromotive source or the voltage supply and since the two resistance is in parallel, it would clearly mean that the voltage drop in each resistance is just the same. The resistance 1 uses the 40 volts at the same time the resistance 2 uses 40 volts also. Solving further for the current, we can apply Ohm's law which V = IR where "V" represents the voltage, the "I" represents the current and "R" represents the resistance.

Such as the solution in obtaining current is shown below:
I = V / R, substitute values we have it
I = 40 volts / 1208 ohms
I = 0.0331 Amperes

Therefore, the current flowing in the first device is 0.033 Amperes or 33 milliAmperes.

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

A 58 g firecracker is at rest at the origin when it explodes into three pieces. The first, with mass 12 g , moves along the x ax
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of momentum law in vector form to solve the problem .

Initial momentum = 0

momentum of 12 g piece

= .012 x 37 i since it moves along x axis .

= .444 i

momentum of 22 g

= .022 x 34 j

= .748 j

Let momentum of third piece = p

total momentum

= p + .444 i + .748 j

so

applying conservation law of momentum

p + .444 i + .748 j  = 0

p = - .444 i -  .748 j  

magnitude of p

= √ ( .444² + .748² )

= .87 kg m /s

mass of third piece = 58 - ( 12 + 22 )

= 24 g = .024 kg

if v be its velocity

.024 v = .87

v = 36.25 m / s .

If 10. joules of work must be done to move 2.0 coulombs of charge from point A to point B in an electric field, the potential di
masya89 [10]
The equation for work (W) done by an electric field is:

W = qΔV

where q is the magnitude of the charge and ΔV is the potential difference. The question gives you W and q, so plug n' play to find ΔV:

10 = 2ΔV
ΔV = 5
