Answer: B. cough-suppressant medication.

Explanation: Antitussives are commonly ordered for the dry, hacking, nonproductive cough that keeps the patient up at night. An antitussive helps to suppress the cough. Cough preparations may also contain antihistamines to dry up secretions, decongestants to reduce swelling in the nasal passages, and flavoring to improve the taste... PF

An automobile with a standard differential turns sharply to the left. The left driving wheel turns on a 20-m radius. Distance be

Inessa05 [86]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Inner wheel Radius = 20 m,

Distance between left and right wheel = 1.5m,

Let us assume speed of drive shaft is N rpm.

Formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

Angular velocity of automobile = w = $\frac{V}{R}$

where, V = linear velocity of automobile m/min,

R = turning radius from automobile center in meter

In the given case, angular velocity remains same for inner and outer wheel but there is change in linear velocity of inner wheel and outer wheel.

Now, we assume that

u = linear velocity of inner wheel

and, u' = linear velocity of outer wheel.

Formula for angular velocity of inner wheel w = ,

Formula for angular velocity of outer wheel w =

Now, for inner wheels

w =

= $\frac{u}{(R - d)}$

u = $V \times \frac{(R - d)}{R}$

= $V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})$

If radius of wheel is r it will cover distance in one min.

Since, velocity of wheel is u it will cover distance u in unit time(min)

Thus, u = $2\pi rn$ = $V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})$

Now, rotation per minute of inner wheel is calculated as follows.

n = $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})}$

= $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{0.75}{20})}$ (since 2d = 1.5m given, d = 0.75m),

= $\frac{V}{r} \times 0.1532$

So, rotation per minute of outer wheel; n' =

= $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 + \frac{0.75}{20})}$

= $\frac{V}{r} \times 0.1651$

A firefighting crew uses a water cannon that shoots water at 25.0 m/s at a fixed angle of 53.0° above the horizontal. The fire-f

zysi [14]

Answer:

8.8 m and 52.5 m

Explanation:

The vertical component and horizontal component of water velocity leaving the hose are

$v_v = vsin(\alpha) = 25sin(53^0) = 25*0.8 = 19.97 m/s$

$v_h = vcos(\alpha) = 25cos(53^0) = 25*0.6 = 15 m/s$

Neglect air resistance, vertically speaking, gravitational acceleration g = -9.8m/s2 is the only thing that affects water motion. We can find the time t that it takes to reach the blaze 10m above ground level

$s = v_vt + gt^2/2$

$10 = 19.97t - 9.8t^2/2$

$4.9t^2 - 19.97t + 10 = 0$

$t= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$t= \frac{19.9658877511823\pm \sqrt{(-19.9658877511823)^2 - 4*(4.9)*(10)}}{2*(4.9)}$

$t= \frac{19.9658877511823\pm14.24}{9.8}$

t = 3.49 or t = 0.58

We have 2 solutions for t, one is 0.58 when it first reach the blaze during the 1st shoot up, the other is 3.49s when it falls down

t is also the times it takes to travel across horizontally. We can use this to compute the horizontal distance between the fire-fighters and the building

$s_1 = v_ht_1 = 15*0.58 = 8.8 m$

$s_2 = v_ht_2 = 15*3.49 = 52.5m$

<h2>The temperature of the air is 66.8° C</h2>

Explanation:

From the Newton's velocity of sound relationship , the velocity of sound is directly proportional to the square root of temperature .

In this case The velocity of sound = frequency x wavelength

= 798 x 0.48 = 383 m/sec

Suppose the temperature at this time = T K

Thus 383 ∝ $\sqrt{T}$ I

The velocity of sound is 329 m/s at 273 K ( given )

Thus 329 ∝ $\sqrt{273}$ II

Dividing I by II , we have

$\frac{383}{329}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{T}{273} }$

or $\frac{T}{273}$ = 1.25

and T = 339.8 K = 66.8° C

Answer:

44.08 Volt

Explanation:

N = 8, A = 0.0775 m^2, R = 8.53 ohm, B = 0.222 T, f = 51 Hz

e0 = N B A w

e0 = 8 x 0.222 x 0.0775 x 2 x 3.14 x 51

e0 = 44.08 Volt
