If you are traveling in a primary channel and you encounter a red and green marker (with the green band on top) when proceeding

in an upstream direction, what must you do

There are many indicators used in navigation such as international markers in order to understand quickly the directions intended during sailing. For example, a green marker indicates that you must pass on the side such that the green marker will be on your left side while the red marker means that the marker should be on your right side on the other hand upon passing the marker. Now when there is a green and red marker, this means you can either pass on either sides but the recommended channel is the direction indicated by the color of topmost band. If green, the navigator must work so that the passing makes the marker on the left side.

What does Kepler's first law of planetary motion imply?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is D.  The distance between the planet and the Sun changes as the planet orbits the sun.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Kepler’s laws of planetary motion, derived by the German astronomer Johannes Kepler, are the laws of physics that describe the motions of the planets in the solar system.

According to the Kepler's first law of planetary motion: the path on which the planets orbit around the sun is elliptical in shape, with the center of the sun at one focus.

Therefore, the distance between the Sun and the planets vary as the planet orbit around the sun.

A tuning fork generates sound waves with a frequency of 240 Hz. The waves travel in opposite directions along a hallway, are ref
Bingel [31]

Answer:

The phase difference between the reflected waves when they meet at the tuning fork is 159.29 rad.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of sound wave = 240 Hz

Distance = 46.0 m

Distance of fork = 14 .0 m

We need to calculate the path difference

Using formula of path difference

\Delta x=2(L_{2}-L_{1})

Put the value into the formula

\Delta x =2((46.0-14.0)-14.0)

\Delta x=36\ m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{343}{240}

\lambda=1.42\ m

We need to calculate the phase difference

Using formula of the phase difference

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\times \delta x

Put the value into the formula

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi}{1.42}\times36

\phi=159.29\ rad

\phi\approx 68.2^{\circ}

Hence, The phase difference between the reflected waves when they meet at the tuning fork is 159.29 rad.

An airplane wing is designed so that the speed of the air across the top of the wing is 255 m/s when the speed of the air below
grin007 [14]
<h2>Answer:442758.96N</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is solved using Bernoulli's equation.

Let P be the pressure at a point.

Let p be the density fluid at a point.

Let v be the velocity of fluid at a point.

Bernoulli's equation states that P+\frac{1}{2}pv^{2}+pgh=constant for all points.

Lets apply the equation of a point just above the wing and to point just below the wing.

Let p_{up} be the pressure of a point just above the wing.

Let p_{do} be the pressure of a point just below the wing.

Since the aeroplane wing is flat,the heights of both the points are same.

\frac{1}{2}(1.29)(255)^{2}+p_{up}= \frac{1}{2}(1.29)(199)^{2}+p_{do}

So,p_{up}-p_{do}=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (25424)=16398.48Pa

Force is given by the product of pressure difference and area.

Given that area is 27ms^{2}.

So,lifting force is 16398.48\times 27=442758.96N

Consider a well-insulated rigid container with two chambers separated by a membrane. The total volume is 5.0 cubic meters. The f
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The Entropy generated by the steam = 2.821 kJ/K

Explanation:

Total volume of container = 5m³

Heat transfer does not exist between system and surrounding, dQ = 0

At the first chamber, temperature of water at saturated liquid is 300°C

From the steam table:

Specific enthalpy of saturated liquid at 300°C , h_{f} = 1344.8 kJ/kg

Specific internal energy of saturated liquid at 300°C, U_{f1} =  1332.7 kJ/kg

For closed system, the first law of thermodynamics state that:

dQ = dw + dU..................(1)

work done for free expansion, dw =0

0 = 0 + dU

dU = 0 , i.e. U₁ = U₂

At the second chamber,

The final pressure, P₂ = 50 kPa

From the steam table, at P₂ = 50 kPa,  U_{f2} = 340.49 kJ/kg

(U_{fg} )_{2} =  2142.7 kJ/kg

Let the dryness fraction at the second chamber = x

U_{2} = U_{f2} + U_{fg2}

U_{2} = 340.49 + x2140.7Since U₁ = U₂

1332.7 = 340.49 + x2140.7

Dryness fraction, x = 0.463

From steam table, the specific volume is, u_{f2} = 0.00103 m^{3} /kg\\

u_{2} = u_{f2} + xu_{fg2}

u_{2} = 0.00103 + 0.463(3.2393)\\u_{2} = 1.5 m^{3} /kg\\

u_{2} = \frac{v_{2} }{m_{2} }

V₂ = 5 m³

1.5 = 5/m₂

m₂ = 3.33 kg

At 300°C S_{1} = S_{f} = 3.2548 kJ/kg-k\\

S_{2} = S_{f2} + xS_{fg2}

From the steam table,

S_{f2} = 1.0912 kJ/kg-k\\S_{fg2} = 6.5019 kJ/kg-k\\S_{2} = 1.0912 + 0.463(6.5019)\\S_{2} = 4.102 kJ/kg-k

Therefore the entropy generated will be :

Entropy = mass* (S₂ - S₁)

Entropy = 3.33* (4.102 - 3.2548)

Entropy = 2.821 kJ/K
