Answer:

Explanation:

Heat capacity = mass x specific heat

heat capacity ∝ mass

∝ volume

heat capacity ∝ volume

H₁ / H₂ = V₁ / V₂

H₁ and H₂ are heat capacity corresponding to volume V₁ and V₂.

312 / 100000  = 1 / V₂

V₂ = 100000 / 312

= 320.51 cubic foot.

You adjust the temperature so that a sound wave travels more quickly through the air. You increase the temperature from 30°C to
earnstyle [38]

The correct answer to the question is : D) 352.6 m/s.

CALCULATION :

As per the question, the temperature is increased from 30 degree celsius to 36 degree celsius.

We are asked to calculate the velocity of sound at 36 degree celsius.

Velocity of sound is dependent on temperature. More is the temperature, more is velocity of sound.

The velocity at this temperature is calculated as -

                            V = 331  + 0.6T m/s

                               = 331 + 0.6 × 36 m/s

                               = 331 + 21.6 m/s

                               = 352.6 m/s.

Here, T denotes the temperature of the surrounding.

Hence, velocity of the sound will be 352.6 m/s.

Skater begins to spend with arms held out at shoulder height. The skater wants to match the speed of the spin to the beat of the
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

the moment of inertia with the arms extended is Io and when the arms are lowered the moment

I₀/I > 1    ⇒   w > w₀

Explanation:

The angular momentum is conserved if the external torques in the system are zero, this is achieved because the friction with the ice is very small,

           L₀ = L_f

           I₀ w₀ = I w

          w =\frac{I_o}{I} w₀

where we see that the angular velocity changes according to the relation of the angular moments, if we approximate the body as a cylinder with two point charges, weight of the arms

          I₀ = I_cylinder + 2 m r²

where r is the distance from the center of mass of the arms to the axis of rotation, the moment of inertia of the cylinder does not change, therefore changing the distance of the arms changes the moment of inertia.

If we say that the moment of inertia with the arms extended is Io and when the arms are lowered the moment will be

        I <I₀

        I₀/I > 1    ⇒   w > w₀

therefore the angular velocity (rotations) must increase

in this way the skater can adjust his spin speed to the musician.
