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.

The current in a single-loop circuit with one resistance R is 6.3 A. When an additional resistance of 3.4 Ω is inserted in serie
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

10.15Ω

Explanation:

From ohm's law,

V = IR...................... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.

Assume the voltage across the resistance = V,

Given: I = 6.3 A

Substitute into equation 1

V = 6.3R.................. Equation 2

When an additional resistance of 3.4 Ω is inserted in series with R,

The voltage remain the same, but the current changes

Total Resistance(Rt) = (R+3.4)Ω, I' = 4.72 A

Also from ohm' law,

V = I'Rt............... Equation 3

Substitute the value of I'  and Rt into equation 3

V = 4.72(R+3.4)............... Equation 5.

Divide equation 2 by equation 5

V/V = 6.3R/4.72(R+3.4)

1 = 1.335R/(R+3.4)

1 = 1.335R/(R+3.4)

R+3.4 = 1.335R

3.4 = 1.335R-R

3.4 = 0.335R

R = 3.4/0.335

R = 10.15Ω

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of kinematic equations of motion and the work done by a body.

In the case of work, we know that it is defined by,

W = F * d

Where,

F= Force

d = Distance

The distance in this case is a composition between number of steps and the height. Then,

d=h*N, for h as the height of each step and N number of steps.

On the other hand we have the speed changes, depending on the displacement and acceleration (omitting time)

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

Where,

V_f = Final velocity

V_i = Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

\Delta X = Displacement

PART A) For the particular case of work we know then that,

W = F*d

W = m*g*(h*N)

W = 50*9.8*(0.3*30)

W = 4.41kJ

Therefore the Work to do that activity is 4.41kJ

PART B) To find the acceleration (from which we can later find the time) we start from the previously given equation,

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

Here,

V_i = \frac{0.3*3}{1} = 0.90m/s\rightarrow3 steps in one second

v_f = 0

Replacing,

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

0-0.9^2=2a(30*0.3)

Re-arrange for a,

a = -\frac{0.9^2}{2*30*0.3}

a = -45*10^{-3}m/s^2

At this point we can calculate the time, which is,

t = \frac{\Delta V}{a}

t = \frac{0-0.9}{-45*10^{-3}}

t = 20s

With time and work we can finally calculate the power

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{4.41}{20}

P = 0.2205kW

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se
Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km
