Suppose you are walking in an airliner in flight. Use Newton’s third law to describe the effect of your walk on the motion on th

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The effect of your walking will create a force on the airline acting downwards, due to the weight. By Newton's thirds law the airline will exert an equal and opposite reaction force directed downwards.

Explanation:

The weight of all the passengers acts downwards on the floor of the Airplane.

The Airplane exerts an equal and opposite force on the passengers, with the help of its propulsion due to which the flight keeps on flying without falling down.

Hence by changing the frame of reference we can observe the force which is responsible for the reaction.

A device called an insolation meter is used to measure the intensity of sunlight. It has an area of 100 cm2 and registers 6.50 W

labwork [276]

Answer:

<h2>650W/m²</h2>

Explanation:

Intensity of the sunlight is expressed as I = Power/cross sectional area. It is measured in W/m²

Given parameters

Power rating = 6.50Watts

Cross sectional area = 100cm²

Before we calculate the intensity, we need to convert the area to m² first.

100cm² = 10cm * 10cm

SInce 100cm = 1m

10cm = (10/100)m

10cm = 0.1m

100cm² = 0.1m * 0.1m = 0.01m²

Area (in m²) = 0.01m²

Required

Intensity of the sunlight I

I = P/A

I = 6.5/0.01

I = 650W/m²

Hence, the intensity of the sunlight in W/m² is 650W/m²

A water main pipe of diameter 10 cm enters a house 2 m below ground. A smaller diameter pipe carries water to a faucet 5 m above

Lemur [1.5K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 10 cm

Distance = 2 m

Speed $v_{1}= 2\ m/s$

Speed $v_{2}=7\ m/s$

Pressure in main pipe $P_{1}=2\times10^{5}\ Pa$

(I). We need to calculate the diameter

Using equation of continuity

$Av_{1}=Av_{2}$

$\pi(\dfrac{d_{1}}{2})^2\times v_{1}=\pi(\dfrac{d_{2}}{2})^2\times v_{2}$

$(\dfrac{10}{2})^2\times2=(\dfrac{d_{2}}{2})^2\times7$

$d_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{25\times2\times4}{7}}$

$d_{2}=5.345\ cm$

(II). We need to calculate the pressure the gauge pressure

Using Bernoulli equation

$P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2+\rho gh_{1}=P_{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^2+\rho g h_{2}$

$P_{2}=P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho(v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2)-\rho g(h_{1}-h_{2})$

$P_{2}=2\times10^{5}+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1000(4-49)-1000\times 9.8\times(5)$

$P_{2}=1.28500\times10^{5}\ Pa$

(III). If it is possible to carry water to a faucet 17 m above ground,

Using Bernoulli equation

$P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2+\rho gh=P_{3}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{3}^2+\rho g h_{3}$

$P_{3}=P_{1}+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2-\rho g(h_{1}-h_{3})$

Here, $h_{3}=0$

Put the value in the equation

$P_{3}=2\times10^{5}+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1000\times4-1000\times 9.8\times17$

$P_{3}=3.5400\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Hence, This is required solution.

A 50 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 90.0C. It is placed in a perfectly insulated container along with 100 g of water

Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.64 J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the formula;

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat

m = mass (g)

c = specific heat capacity

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

In this case:

Q (water) = - Q (metal)

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

According to the information in this question,

For water; m = 100g, c = 4.18J/g°C, ∆T = (25°C - 20°C)

For metal; m = 50g, c =?, ∆T = (25°C - 90°C)

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

100 × 4.18 × (25°C - 20°C) = - {50 × c × (25°C - 90°C)}

100 × 4.18 × 5 = - {50 × c × -65}

2090 = -{-3250c}

2090 = 3250c

c = 2090/3250

c = 0.643

c = 0.64J/g°C
