<span>W = P(deltaV)
W = (3.7 X 10^5)(1.6) = 5.92 X 10^5 Joules </span>

Answer:

5.92x10^5 J

Explanation:

In order to solve this, you need to know the expression or formula to use. In this case:

W = P * ΔV

Where:

P = pressure

V = change in volume.

Now, this is actually easy, and we need to put the values given in the exercise in the above expression and solve for W. Remember that 1 Pa is 1 kg/ m.s²

W = 3.7x10^5 kg / m.s² * 1.6m³

W = 592,000 kg/ m².s²

And 1 kg / m².s² = 1 J so

W = 592,000 J or simply 5.92x10^5 J or even 592 kJ

A negatively charged particle is moving to the right, directly above a wire have a current flowing to the right. In which direct
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

C) upward

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.

First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).

Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:

- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right

- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page

- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward

Therefore, the direction of  the magnetic force is upward.

A coin 15.0 mm in diameter is placed 15.0 cm from a spherical mirror. The coin's image is 5.0 mm in diameter and is erect. Is th
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

15 cm

Explanation:

h_{o} = Diameter of the coin = 15 mm

h_{i} = Diameter of the image of coin =  5 mm

d_{o} = distance of the coin from mirror = 15 cm

d_{i} = distance of the image of coin from mirror = ?

Using the equation

\frac{d_{i}}{d_{o}} = \frac{- h_{i}}{h_{o}}

\frac{d_{i}}{15} = \frac{- (5)}{15}

d_{i} = - 5 cm

R = radius of curvature

Using the mirror equation

\frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{2}{R}

\frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{- 5} = \frac{2}{R}

R = - 15 cm

Which statement correctly describes both sound and light waves?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Option C. Light waves can travel through space, sound waves cannot.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which requires no Meduim for propagation. However, sound wave requires a medium for propagation. Since space is empty, sound can not travel through it.
