You can thank me if this answer helps. The energy coal comes from energy that was stored in giant plants that lived hundreds of millions of years ago in swamp forests,even before dinosaurs!

(a) If two sound waves, one in a gas medium and one in a liquid medium, are equal in intensity, what is the ratio of the pressur
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

(a) The ratio of the pressure amplitude of the waves is 43.21

(b) The ratio of the intensities of the waves is 0.000535

Explanation:

Given;

density of gas, \rho _g = 2.27 kg/m³

density of liquid, \rho _l = 972 kg/m³

speed of sound in gas, C_g = 376 m/s

speed of sound in liquid, C_l = 1640 m/s

The of the sound wave is given by;

I = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho C} \\\\P_o^2 = 2 \rho C I\\\\p_o = \sqrt{2 \rho CI}

Where;

P_o is the pressure amplitude

P_o_g= \sqrt{2 \rho _g C_gI} -------(1)\\\\P_o_l= \sqrt{2 \rho _l C_lI}---------(2)\\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \frac{\sqrt{2 \rho _l C_lI}}{\sqrt{2 \rho _g C_gI}} \\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \rho _l C_lI}{2 \rho _g C_gI} }\\\\ \frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{ \rho _l C_l}{ \rho _g C_g} }\\\\ \frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = \sqrt{\frac{ (972)( 1640)}{ (2.27)( 376)} }\\\\\frac{P_o_l}{P_o_g} = 43.21

(b) when the pressure amplitudes are equal, the ratio of the intensities is given as;

I = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho C}\\\\I_g = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _g C_g}-------(1)\\\\I_l = \frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _l C_l}-------(2)\\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = (\frac{P_o^2}{2 \rho _l C_l})*(\frac{2\rho_gC_g}{P_o^2} )\\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = \frac{\rho _gC_g}{\rho_lC_l} \\\\\frac{I_l}{I_g} = \frac{(2.27)(376)}{(972)(1640)}\\\\ \frac{I_l}{I_g} = 0.000535

if you are in Birmingham AL, and you want to use your cell phone to talk to your cousin in Houston, TX, what must occur in order
lesantik [10]

Answer:

For communication to be communicated between you and your cousin who is in Houston,Texas, when a call is made by you, a request is made to the specific phone, and the telephone tower will get the request from the mobile phone. Then a signal is sent via a transmitter underground, by this the satellite communicates with the local receiver in Houston, that is linked to the local tower over there, the tower would request for your cousin's number and connects the two of you, once a link is set.

Explanation:

From the example stated, what is required for such for a far distance, is a communication satellite link.

When a call is made by you, the a connection request is sent to the specified phone.The telephone tower receives the request from The mobile phone. The local tower(Birmingham,Al) is linked to a ground transmitter by the means of a Fiber optical cable.

A signal is sent to satellite via the ground transmitter.The satellite then set's off the local receiver in (Houston,Texas) which on it's end is connected to the local tower there. This tower then ask for your cousin's mobile for a call that will be incoming, a link is set, once he/she receives the call, from there a conversation can be done.

Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of ammonium nitrate to form molecular nitrogen, molecular oxygen, and water. Exp
VARVARA [1.3K]

The unbalanced reaction is

<em>a</em> NH₄NO₃   ⇒   <em>b</em> N₂ + <em>c</em> O₂ + <em>d</em> H₂O

where <em>a</em>, <em>b</em>, <em>c</em>, and <em>d</em> are unknown constants.

Count how many times each element appears on either side of the reaction.

• reactants:

N = 2<em>a</em>, H = 4<em>a</em>, O = 3<em>a</em>

• products

N = 2<em>b</em>, O = 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>, H = 2<em>d</em>

<em />

Now we solve the system of equations,

2<em>a</em> = 2<em>b</em> … … … [1]

4<em>a</em> = 2<em>d</em> … … … [2]

3<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em> … … … [3]

<em />

From [1] we immediately have

<em>a</em> = <em>b</em>

In [2], we get

2<em>a</em> = <em>d</em>

and substituting for <em>d</em> in [3] gives

3<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em> + 2<em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em>

<em />

Let <em>c</em> = 1; then

• <em>a</em> = 2×1 = 2

• <em>b</em> = 2

• <em>d</em> = 2×2 = 4

So, the balanced reaction is

2 NH₄NO₃   ⇒   2 N₂ + O₂ + 4 H₂O

What will happen to the 0.1 N force if one charges is increased by a factor of 3?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges is given by the following expression

F = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}  Q₁ and Q₂ are two charges and d is distance between two.

.1 = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}

If Q₁ becomes three times , force will become 3 times . Hence force becomes .3 N in the first case.

Force F = .3 N

If charge becomes one fourth , force also becomes one fourth .

F= \frac{.1}{4}

= .025 N.

Motor oil , with a viscosity of 0 . 250 Ns / m2 , is flowing through a tube that has a radius of 5 . 00 mm and is 25 . 0 cm long
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Explanation:

viscosity, η = 0.250 Ns/m^2

radius, r = 5 mm = 5 x 10^-3 m

length, l = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Pressure, P = 300 kPa = 300000 Pa

According to the Poisuellie's formula

Volume flow per unit time is

V=\frac{\pi \times Pr^{4}}{8\eta l}

V=\frac{3.14 \times 300000\times \left ( 5\times 10^{-3} \right )^{4}}{8\times 0.250\times 0.25}

V = 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Thus, the volume of oil flowing per second is 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s.
