Answer:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=49.2 atm\\T_1=39.0^oC = 312.15 K\\P_2=?\\T_2=198^oC=471.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{49.2atm }{312.15 K}=\frac{P_2}{471.15 K}\\\\P_2=74.26 atm

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Superman stops a "speeding locomotive" of mass 8.0x103 kg in 4.0 seconds. If the train was originally moving at 40.m/s,
madreJ [45]

Hello!

<em>a) What is the change in momentum</em>?

The change of the momentum is the velocity, because the velocity is reduced to zero.

We can calculate the aceleration, applicating the formula:

\boxed{a=\frac{V-Vi}{t} }

Like you see, the final velocity will be zero, so:

a = \dfrac{0m/s-40m/s}{4s}

a = \dfrac{-40m/s}{4s}

a = -10\ m/s^{2}

Like you see, the aceleration applicate by superman is of <u>-10 m/s^2.</u>

If the aceleration is negattive, means the velocity will decrease.

<em>b.) What is the magnitud of the force wich superman exerts on the train?</em>

For calculate the force applicate for superman, lets applicate the second law of Newton:

\boxed{F=ma}

Lets replace and resolve it:

F = 8x10^3 kg * (-10 m/s^2)

F = 8000 kg * (-10 m/s^2)

F = -80 000 N

The force applicated is of <u>-80000 Newtons.</u>

When the force is negative means the force applicated in the another direction of the object what is traveling.

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum spee dof 32.0 m/s. With what maximum sp
Dvinal [7]

Answer

Maximum speed at 75 m radius will be 22.625 m /sec

Explanation:              

We have given radius of the curve r = 150 m

Maximum speed v_{max}=32m/sec

Coefficient of friction \mu =\frac{v_{max}^2}{rg}=\frac{32^2}{150\times 9.8}=0.6965

Now new radius r = 75 m

So maximum speed at new radius v_{max}=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6965\times 75\times 9.8}=22.625m/sec

Why is the nucleus of an atom dense​
Inessa [10]

Explanation:

The nucleus of an atom is dense because it contains more of particles in a very little space.

The nucleus is the center of an atom made up of the protons and neutrons.

Atomic nucleus is very small compared to the size of the atom.

 Density is function of mass and volume.

Mass is the amount of matter in a substance.

Volume is the space occupied by a substance.

    The more the mass the more the density.

Since protons and neutron are massive bodies occupying a small space, they make the nucleus very dense.
