Answer:

25 min, 48 sec

Explanation:

Alan:

t = d/v

  = 400 mi / 46 mph = 8.70 hr

So it took Alan 8.70 hrs; from 8 am, that's 4:42 pm that he arrives.

t = d/v

  = 400 mi / 55 mph = 7.27 hr

So it took Beth 7.27 hrs; from 9 am, that's 4:16:12 that she arrives.

4:42 - 4:16:12 = 25.8 minutes = 25 minutes, 48 sec

The latent heat of vaporization for water at room temperature is 2430 J/g.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

1)   kinectic energy=7.26*10^-^2^0J

2)  V= 2.0m/s

3)  T=3.5*10^3K

4)  The Molecules do not burn because of the presences of hydrogen bond in place

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

latent heat of vaporization for water at room temperature is 2430 J/g.

1)Generally in determining the molar mass of water evaporated we have that

-One mole (6.02 x 10. 23 molecules)

-Molar mass of water is 18.02 g/mol

Mathematically the mass of water is give as

   

  M=\frac{18.02}{6.02*10^-^2^6}

  M=3*10^-^2^3g

Therefore

  kinectic energy=2430J/g*3*10^-^2^3g

 kinectic energy=7.26*10^-^2^0J

b)Generally the evaporation speed V is given asV= \sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }

Mathematically derived from the equation

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 =K.E

To Give

V= \sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }

V= \sqrt{\frac{7.26*10^-^2^0J*2}{3*10^-^2^3g} }

V= 2.0m/s

c)Generally the equation for velocity   Vrms=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }

Therefore

Effective temperature T is given by

      T=\frac{\sqrt{v}*m}{R}

where

     T=\frac{\sqrt{2.0m/s}*6.02*10^-^2^6}{0.082057 L atm mol-1K-1}

     T=3.5*10^3K

4) The Molecules do not burn because of the presences of hydrogen bond in place

Suppose you were examining a pulsing radio signal from a stellar remnant in a distant part of the Milky Way. Knowing that ionizi
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

- Time delta is associated with difference in wavelengths

Explanation:

When pulsating radio waves consisting of different wavelengths pass through the ionized gas in interstellar space, the fast oscillating radio waves travel relatively faster than the slowly oscillating radio waves. As a result radio waves get dispersed and there is a time difference between the radio waves with different wavelength when the pulses arrive.

Total lung capacity of a typical adult is approximately 5.0L. Approximately 20% of the air is oxygen, as air is 20% oxygen. At s
Tresset [83]

Answer:

n=0.03928 moles

Moles of oxygen do the lungs contain at the end of an inflation are 0.03928 moles

Explanation:

The amount of oxygen which lung can have is 20% of 5 L which is the capacity of lungs

Volume of oxygen in lungs =V=5*20%= 1 L=1*10^{-3} m^3

Temperature=T=37^oC=273+37=310K

Pressure at sea level = P= 1 atm=1.0125*10^5 Pa

R is universal Gas Constant =8.314 J/mol.K

Formula:

n=\frac{PV}{RT}\\n=\frac{(1.0125*10^5) *(1*10^{-3})}{(8.314)*310} \\n=0.03928 mol

Moles of oxygen do the lungs contain at the end of an inflation are 0.03928 moles
