For free falling bodies, the final velocity may be calculated through the equation,
                                   Vf = gt
Where g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²) and t is the time elapsed. Substituting the known values,
                                   Vf = (9.8 m/s²) x (4 s) = 39.2 m/s
Therefore, the object's velocity is approximately 39.2 m/s.

If the capacity of the lungs of an adult were 3.8 L, how many moles of air would the lungs contain at body temperature and atmos
Ahat [919]

Answer:

  • 0.14955  mol

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the ideal gas law

P \ V = \ n \ R \ T

where P is the pressure, V the volume, n the number of moles, R the ideal gas constant and T the temperature.

We can use the atmospheric pressure as 1 atm, and the body temperature as 36.5 °C, in Kelvin this is:

T_{body} = 36.5 \° C = (36.5 + 273.15) K = 309.65 \ K

The ideal gas constant is:

R = 0.082057 \frac{L \ atm}{ K \ mol}

taking all this in consideration, the number of moles will be:

n = \frac{P \ V}{  R \ T }

n = \frac{1 \ atm * 3.8 \ L  }{ 0.082057 \frac{L \ atm}{ K \ mol} *  309.65 \ K } [/tex]

n = 0.14955 \ mol

The temperature of the cosmic background radiation is measured to be 2.7 k. What is the wavelength of the peak in the spectral d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of the spectral distribution can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the cosmic background radiation, the temperature is

T = 2.7 K

So, the corresponding peak wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K}{2.7 K}=1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Which of the following has the lowest U value?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

c. expanded polyurethane

Explanation:

Thermal performance of a building fabric is measured in terms of heat loss and is expressed as U-value or R-value. U-value is the rate of heat transferred through a structure divided by the difference in temperature across the structure with a unit of measurement of W/m²K.You can calculate the U-value of a by getting the reciprocal of the sum of thermal resistances , R, making the building material.

If you have the value of R, then U=1/R

Material                         size            R                      U

plywood                          1"              1.25                0.8

Poured concrete            2"              0.99               1.010

Expanded polyurethane  1"            6.5                   0.1538

Asbestos shingles            1"             0.03                33.33

The material with lowest U-value is expanded polyurethane
