Explain why the boiling point of a liquid varies with atmospheric pressure

Physics

The boiling point of water, or any liquid, varies according to the surrounding atmospheric pressure. A liquid boils, or begins turning to vapor, when its internal vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.

To push a 26.0 kg crate up a frictionless incline, angled at 25.0° to the horizontal, a worker exerts a force of 209 N parallel
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

(a) W = +397.1 J

(b) W = -204.6 J

(c) W = 0

(d) W= + 192.5 J

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the product of force (F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force. :

W= F*d Formula ( 1)

The forces that perform work on an object must be parallel to its displacement.

The forces perpendicular to the displacement of an object do not perform work on it.

The work is positive (W+) if the force has the same direction of movement of the object.  

The work is negative (W-) if the force has the opposite direction of the movement of the object.

Problem development

(a) Work performed by the worker's applied force on the box .

W= 209 N * 1.9 m = +397.1 J

(b) Work performed by the gravitational force on the crate

We calculate the weight component parallel to the displacement of the box:

We define the x-axis in the direction of the inclined plane ,25.0° to the horizontal.

We define the y-axis and in the direction of the plane perpendicular to the inclined plane.

W= m*g=26*9.8= 254.8N : total box weight

Wx= W*sen25.0°= 254.8*sen25.0°= 107.68 N

W = -Wx *d =107.68 N *1.9 m= -204.6 J

(c) Work performed by normal force (N) exerted by the incline on the crate

The force N is perpendicular to the displacement, then:

W=0

(d) Total work done on the crate

W = 397.1 J -204.6 J

W = 192.5 J

the magnitude of the magnetic field at point p for a certain electromagnetic wave is 2.21. What is the magnitude of the elctic f
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

6.63\times 10^8\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

The magnitude of magnetic field, B = 2.21

We need to find the magnitude of the electric field. Let it is E. So,

\dfrac{E}{B}=c\\\\E=Bc

Put all the values,

E=2.21\times 3\times 10^8\\\\=6.63\times 10^8\ N/C

So, the magnitude of the electric field is equal to 6.63\times 10^8\ N/C.

An archer fires an arrow at a castle 230 m away. The arrow is in flight for 6 seconds, then hits the wall of the castle and stic
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal distance = 230 m

Time t = 6 sec

Vertical distance = 16 m

We need to calculate the horizontal component

Using formula of horizontal component

R =u\cos\theta t

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{230}{6} = u\cos\theta

u\cos\theta=38.33.....(I)

We need to calculate the height

Using vertical component

H=u\sin\theta t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value in the equation

16 =u\sin\theta\times6-\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times6^2

u\sin\theta=\dfrac{16+9.8\times18}{6}

u\sin\theta=32.06.....(II)

Dividing equation (II) and (I)

\dfrac{u\sin\theta}{u\cos\theta}=\dfrac{32.06}{38.33}

\tan\theta=0.8364

\theta=\tan^{-1}0.8364

\theta=39.90^{\circ}

(a). We need to calculate the initial speed

Using equation (I)

u\cos\theta\times t=38.33

Put the value into the formula

u =\dfrac{230}{6\times\cos39.90}

u=49.96\ m/s

(b). We have already calculate the angle.

Hence, (a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.
