The speed of sound is influenced by several factors, including medium, density and temperature. The rate at which sound waves moves varies widely from one situation to the next and can change dramatically in a short period of time.

spayn [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Reyleigh's criteria. Here the resolution of the eye is defined as 1.22 times the wavelength over the diameter of the eye. Mathematically this is,

\theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{D}

Here,

D is diameter of the eye

D = \frac{1.22 (539nm)}{5.11 mm}

D= 1.287*10^{-4}m

The angle that relates the distance between the lights and the distance to the lamp is given by,

Sin\theta = \frac{d}{L}

For small angle, sin\theta = \theta

sin \theta = \frac{d}{L}

Here,

d = Distance between lights

L = Distance from eye to lamp

For small angle sin \theta = \theta

Therefore,

L = \frac{d}{sin\theta}

L = \frac{0.691m}{1.287*10^{-4}}

L = 5367m

Therefore the distance is 5.367km.

A piston/cylinder contains 2 kg of water at 20◦C with a volume of 0.1 m3. By mistake someone locks the piston, preventing it fro
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Hi

Final temperature = 250.11 °C

Final volume = 0,1 m3.

Process work = 0

Explanation:

The specific volume in the initial state is: v = 0.1m3/2 kg = 0.05 m3/kg.

This volume is located between the volumes as saturated liquid and saturated steam at 20 °C. For this reason the water is initially in a liquid vapor mixture. As the piston was blocked the volume remains constant and the process is isometric, also known as isocoric process, so the final temperature will be the water temperature at a saturated steam of v=0.05m3/kg, which is obtained by using steam tables for water, by linear interpolation. As follows, using table A-4 of the Cengel book 7th Edition:

v=0.05 m3/kg

v1=0.057061 m3/kg

T1=242.56°C

v2=0.049779 m3/kg

T2=250.35°C

T=\frac{T2-T1}{v2-v1} x(v-v1)+T1=\frac{250.35°C-242.56°C}{0.049779m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg}x(0.05m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg)+242.56°C=250.11°C

The process work is zero because there is no change in volume during heating:

W=PxΔv=Px0=0

where

W=process work

P=pressure

Δv=change of volume, is zero because the piston was blocked so the volume remains constant.
