Refraction:

1 answer:

4 0

Refraction is caused by any wave crossing the boundary out of one substance and into another one. The two different substances may be no more than two parcels of air at different temperatures.

Dry air is primarily composed of nitrogen. In a classroom demonstration, a physics instructor pours 3.6 L of liquid nitrogen int

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The value is $V_n = 2.2498 \ m^3$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The volume of liquid nitrogen is $V_n = 3.6 \ L= 3.6 *10^{-3} \ m^3$

The density of nitrogen at gaseous form is $\rho_n = 1.2929 \ kg/m^3$ = The dry air at sea level

Generally the density of nitrogen at liquid form is

$\rho _l = 808 \ kg/m^3$

And this is mathematically represented as

$\rho_l = \frac{m}{V_l }$

=> $m = \rho_l * V_l$

Now the density of gaseous nitrogen is

$\rho_n = \frac{m}{V_n }$

=> $m = \rho_n * V_n$

Given that the mass is constant

$\rho_n * V_n = \rho_l * V_l$

$1.2929* V_n = 808 * 3.6*10^{-3}$

=> $V_n = 2.2498 \ m^3$

Why do the pipes in a steam-heating system need to be insulated?

qaws [65]

Answer:

1. Increase Efficiency: Insulating the condensate or hot water return lines reduces heat loss from the water returning to the boiler. The hotter the water returning to the boiler is, the quicker it is to convert back to steam, which takes less energy to accomplish.

A 4 kg object moving to the left collides with and sticks to a 3 kg object moving to the right. Which of the following is true o

madam [21]

Answer:

D. The motion cannot be determined without knowing the speeds of the objects before the collision.

Explanation:

This question is tricky! We know the object moving to the left has a greater mass than the one moving to the right. We'd assume they would move to the left because the leftwards object has a greater mass, right?

Not. So. Fast.

We can solve for the objects' final velocity using the formula for momentum, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v .

Now here's where the trap is sprung: we don't think about the equation. This shows that the final velocity of the objects and the direction depends on both the mass of the objects and their initial velocity.

Basically, what if the 3 kg object is moving at 1 m/s and the 4 kg object is moving at –0.5 m/s? The objects would move to the right after the collision!

Do we know the velocity of these objects? No, right?

That means we can't determine the direction of their motion unless we know their initial, pre-collision velocity. This question is tricky because we look at the 4 kg vs. 3 kg and automatically assume the 4 kg object would dictate the direction of motion. That's not true. It depends on velocity as well.

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!
