The surface tension of a liquid is to be measured using a liquid film suspended on a U-shaped wire frame with an 12-cm-long mova

ble side. If the force needed to move the wire is 0.096 N, determine the surface tension of this liquid in air.

Answer:

σ  = 0.8 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

L = 12 cm

We know that 1 m = 100 cm

L = 0.12 m

The force ,F= 0.096 N

Lets take surface tension = σ

We know that surface tension is given as

\sigma =\dfrac{F}{L}\\\sigma =\dfrac{F}{L}\\Now\ by\ putting\ the\ values\\\sigma =\dfrac{0.096}{0.12}\ N/m\\\sigma=0.8\ N/m

Therefore the surface tension σ  will be 0.8 N/m .

σ  = 0.8 N/m

Which of these physical settings makes sense for an object moving along the x-axis? Its position at any time is given by x(t) =
kow [346]

Answer:

option b is correct.

Explanation:

Since the position as a function of time is given by

x(t)=3cos(\pi t)+2 which is a periodic function thus the motion of the particle repeats after a time of 2 seconds thus among the given options only option b is case of repetitive motion thus option b is most appropriate since the spinning wheel repeates it's motion.

Heat is allowed to flow from the heat source of a heat engine at 425 K to a cold sink at 313 K. What is the efficiency of the he
olga2289 [7]
I assume here that the engine operates following a Carnot cycle, which achieves the maximum possible efficiency. 

Under this assumption, the efficiency of the engine (so, the efficiency of the Carnot cycle) is given by
\eta = 1- \frac{T_{cold}}{T_{hot}}
where
T_{cold} is the cold temperature
T_{hot} is the hot temperature

For the engine in our problem, the cold temperature is 313 K while the hot temperature is 425 K, so the effiency of the engine is
\eta=1- \frac{313 K}{425 K}=0.264 = 26.4 \%
