A closed system consisting of 2 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pVn = c

onstant. The process begins with p1 = 15 lbf/in.2, ν1 = 1.25 ft3/lb and ends with p2 = 60 lbf/in.2, ν2 = 0.5 ft3/lb. Determine (a) the volume, in ft3, occupied by the gas at states 1 and 2 and (b) the value of n.

Answer:

V1=<u>2.5ft3</u>

<u>V2=1ft3</u>

n=1.51

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=2lb*1.25ft3/lb=<u>2.5ft3</u>

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=2lb*0.5ft3/lb=  <u> 1ft3</u>

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/60)/ ln (1/2.5)

n=1.51

Optics of the eye: the closest object that a typical young person with normal vision can focus on clearly is closest to:______.
Natali [406]

The human eye is one of the most valuable sense organ. The closest object that a typical young person with normal vision can focus closest to is 25 cm

The lens in the eye forms the image on the retina. The image formed is real and inverted. The retina is a very delicate membrane containing numerous light sensitive cells.

This light sensitive cells gets activated when light falls on it and generates electric signals. These electric signals are sent to the brain via the optic nerves present in the eye. The brain finally processes these signals and thus we see the object clearly.

The ability of the lens of the eye to adjust its focal length accordingly is called the power of accommodation,

The minimum distance, at which the object can be seen clearly without any strain is called the least distance of distinct vision.

To see an object clearly without any strain is when we place it at about 25 cm from the eye.

If 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg, and Megan Progress weighs 130 lbs, what is her weight in newtons?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Force = 2802.8 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 130 lbs

But, 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg

130 lbs to kg = 130 * 2.2 = 286 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

To find the force in Newton;

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Force = 286 * 9.8

Force = 2802.8 Newton
