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.

xenn [34]

Answer: The electric field is: a) r<a , E0=; b) a<r<b E=ρ (r-a)/εo;

c) r>b E=ρ b (b-a)/r*εo

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Gaussian law in diffrengios regions.

As we know,

∫E.dr= Qinside/εo

For r<a --->Qinside=0 then E=0

for a<r<b er have

E*2π*r*L= Q inside/εo       in this case Qinside= ρ.Vol=ρ*2*π*r*(r-a)*L

E*2π*r*L =ρ*2*π*r* (r-a)*L/εo

E=ρ*(r-a)/εo

Finally for r>b

E*2π*r*L =ρ*2*π*b* (b-a)*L/εo

E=ρ*b* (b-a)*/r*εo

A 7.00-kg object undergoes an acceleration given by ax=3.00 and ay= 9.00 m/s2. Find (a) the components of the force acting on th
lord [1]

Answer:

66.4 N

Explanation:

From Newton's second law, <em>F </em>=<em> ma</em>

where <em>F</em> is the force, <em>m</em> is the mass and <em>a</em> is the acceleration.

Because the object has acceleration in two directions and the mass is constant, the force will be in two directions. The component of the forces are:

F_x = ma_x = (7.00\text{ kg})(3.00 \text{ m/s}^2) = 21.0\text{ N}

F_y = ma_y = (7.00\text{ kg})(9.00 \text{ m/s}^2) = 63.0\text{ N}

The magnitude of the resultant force is given by

F = \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

F = \sqrt{(21.0\text{ N})^2+(63.0\text{ N})^2} = \sqrt{(441.0\text{ N}^2)+(3969.0\text{ N}^2)} = \sqrt{(4410\text{ N}^2)} = 66.4 \text{ N}

A bird uses 10 N of force to pull a worm out of the ground a distance of 3 inches. How much work did the bird do?
pochemuha

Answer:

The work done by the bird is 0.762 J

Explanation:

Given;

force applied by the bird, f = 10 N

distance the bird moved the worm, d = 3 inches = 0.0762 m

The work done by the bird is given by;

W = F x d

where;

W is the work done by the bird

d is the distance the bird moved the load

Substitute the given values and estimate the work done by the bird;

W = 10 x 0.0762

W = 0.762 J

Therefore, the work done by the bird is 0.762 J
