Answer:

The absolute pressure of air inside the tank is 164.7 psi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure = 14.7 Psi

Gauge pressure = 150 psi

We need to calculate the absolute pressure of air inside the tank

Using formula of absolute pressure

P_{ab}=P_{g}+P_{atm}

Where, P_{g} = gauge pressure

P_{atm} =atmospheric pressure

Put the value into the formula

P_{ab}=150+14.7

P_{ab}=164.7\ psi

Hence, The absolute pressure of air inside the tank is 164.7 psi.

After a laser bean passes through two thin parallel slits, thefirst completely dark fringes occur at ± 15.00with the original di
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

143 °

Explanation:

a ) If d be the distance between slits , λ be wavelength of light used and at angle θ nth dark fringe is formed then

d sinθ = ( 2n+1) λ/2

for first dark fringe

d sinθ = λ/2

d /λ = 1/ 2 sinθ

1 / 2 sin15

= 1.93

b )

For intensity of fringe at angle θ,  the relation is

I = I₀ cos²θ

I / I₀  = cos²θ/2

Given I / I₀ =0. 1

0.1 = cos²θ/2

θ/2 = 71.5

θ = 143 °

A descent vehicle landing on the moon has a vertical velocity toward the surface of the moon of 29.6 m/s. At the same time, it h
inessss [21]

If the vertical component is 29.6 m/s down, and the horizontal component
is 54.8 m/s parallel to the surface, then the magnitude of the slanty vector is

   √(29.6² + 54.8²) = √(876.16 + 3003.04) = √3879.2  =  62.28 m/s .

That's 139 mph !  Wow !

What are the parts of a wedge and their function?​
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

A wedge is a machine that consists of two inclined planes, giving it a thin end and thick end. A wedge is used to cut or split apart objects. Force is applied to the thick end of the wedge, and the wedge applies force to the object along both of its sloping sides. This force causes the object to split apart

1) A ball is dropped from the Eiffel Tower (300 m), how long would it take for the ball to reach a velocity of 65 m/s? How far d
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

If you drop a ball from

the top of a building it

gains speed as it falls.

• Every second, its

speed increases by

10 m/s.

• Also it does not fall

equal distances in

equal time intervals

• If the acceleration = 0 then the velocity is

constant. [remember that acceleration is

the rate of change of velocity]

• In this case the distance an object will

travel in a certain amount of time is given

by distance = velocity x time

• For example, if you drive at 60 mph for

one hour you go 60 mph x 1 hr = 60 mi.
