morpeh [17]

The kinetic energy of a moving object is calculated through the equation,
KE = 0.5mv²
where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is the velocity. Substituting the known values in the problem above,
KE = 0.5(55 kg)(16 m/s)²
KE = 7,040 J
Thus, the kinetic energy of the skydiver is approximately equal to 7 kJ.

Calculate the vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius (a) 17 nm and (b) 2.0 μm surrounded by water vapor at 298 K.

Montano1993 [528]

Explanation:

Relation between pressure of water and its droplet is as follows.

$ln (\frac{p}{p_{o}}) = \frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}$

where, p = pressure of droplet

$p_{o}$ = water pressure in given temperature

$\gamma$ = $7.99 \times 10^{-3}$

M = Molecular Weight in Kg/Mol (0.018 for water)

r = radius in meters

$\rho$ = density of water in $Kg/m^{3}$ (1000 $kg/m^{3}$ )

R = ideal gas constant (8.31)

T = temperature in Kelvin

(a) We will calculate the value of p as follows.

p = $e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}$

= $e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{1.7 \times 10^{-8} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2$

= 26.8 torr

(b) And, vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius 2.0 $\mu m$ or $2 \times 10^{-6} m$

p = $e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}$

= $e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{2 \times 10^{-6} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2$

= 25.2 torr

Explain why the open ocean is often called a “marine desert”

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Blue Open

Explanation:

Blue Planet - Open Ocean

Teachable Moments: The open ocean is often referred to as a "marine desert." ... However, the biodiversity in the open ocean, away from the flow of nutrients from the coasts, is the lowest for all aquatic ecosystems.
