Answer:

From the Bernoulli energy principle,

ΔP + 1/2ρΔv² = 0 -------------------------- eqn 1

where

ΔP = pressure drop = P2 - P1 = (1 - 0.25)x10⁵ N/m =7.5 x 10⁴N/m

Δv²= velocity change = v₂² - v₁²

ρ = water density = 1kg/m3

Recall volumetric flow rate, Q=A v = constant

A = cross sectional area = πr²=πd²/4

d=pipe diameter at point 2 = 2.5cm = 0.025m and Q =0.20m³/min = 0.00333m³/s

So A= 0.000491m²

we can get v2 = Q/A = 6.79m/s

From eqn 1, v₁² = 2(P2 - P1)/ρ + v₂²

v₁² = (2 x 7.5 x 10⁴)/1000 + 6.79²

v₁² = 196

v₁ = 14m/s

we can now get the area of the constriction point 2, A₁ = Q/v₁

A₁ = 0.000238m² and the diameter now will be d₁

d₁² = 4 x A₁ / π

= 4 x 0.000238/3.14 = 0.000303m²

d₁ = √0.000303 = 0.0174m

Therefore, the diameter of a constriction in the pipe at the new pressure = 0.0174m = 1.74cm

Neon has 3 naturally occurring isotopes, Neon-20, Neon-21, and Neon-22. Neon's average atomic mass on the periodic table is 20.1

Dmitry [639]

Neon - 20 is the most abundant. Abundance matters as the average atomic mass has to take into account the amount of one isotope. The more abundance the more mass, the closed the average atomic mass is to the mass of that one isotope

A quantum system has three states, with energies 0, 1.6 × 10-21, and 1.6 × 10-21, in Joules. It is coupled to an environment wit

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply two concepts, the first is related to the calculation of average data and the second is the Boltzmann distribution.

Boltzmann distribution is a probability distribution or probability measure that gives the probability that a system will be in a certain state as a function of that state's energy and the temperature of the system. It is given by

$z = \sum\limit_i e^{-\frac{\epsilon_i}{K_0T}}$

Where,

$\epsilon_i =$ energy of that state

k = Boltzmann's constant

T = Temperature

With our values we have that

T= 250K

$k = 1.381*10^{23} m^2 kg s^{-2} K^{-1}$

$\epsilon_1=0J$

$\epsilon_2=1.6*10^{-21}J$

$\epsilon_3=1.6*10^{-21}J$

To make the calculations easier we can assume that the temperature and Boltzmann constant can be summarized as

$\beta = \frac{1}{kT}$

$\beta = \frac{1}{(1.381*10^{23} m^2)(250)}$

$\beta = 2.9*10^{20}J$

Therefore the average energy would be,

$\bar{\epsilon} =\frac{\sum \epsilon_i e^{-\beta \epsilon_i}}{\sum e^{-\beta \epsilon_i}}$

Replacing with our values we have

$\bar{\epsilon} = \frac{0e^{-0}+1.6*10^{-21}*e^{-\Beta(1.6*10^{-21})}+1.6*10^{-2-1}*e^{-(2.9*10^{20})(1.6*10^{-21})}}{1+2e^{-2.9*10^{20}*1.6*10^{-21}}}$

$\bar{\epsilon} = 0.9*10^{-22}J$

Therefore the average internal energy is $\bar{\epsilon} = 0.9*10^{-22}J$

Mass of a body is 210g and its density is 7.981g/cm^3 what will be its volume with regard to significant figures

aleksandrvk [35]

Density is mass per unit volume,

$\rho=\dfrac mV$

so to get the volume, divide the mass by the density,

$V=\dfrac m\rho$

So the volume is

$\dfrac{210\,\mathrm g}{7.981\frac{\rm g}{\mathrm{cm}^3}}\approx26.312\,\mathrm{cm}^3\approx\boxed{26\,\mathrm{cm}^3}$

Calculate ΔH∘f (in kilojoules per mole) for benzene, C6H6, from the following data:

Dahasolnce [82]

ΔH<span> for the reaction = [sum of heat of formation for products] - [sum of heat of formation for reactants]

-6534 = [(12)(-393.5) + (6)(-285.8)] - (2X)

-6534 = [(-4722) + (-1714.8)] - 2X

-6534 = -6436.8 - 2X

-6534 + 6436.8 = -2X

-</span>97.2 = -2X<span>

then, divide each side by two to cancel out the numerical coefficient.

x = +48.6 kJ, which is the heat of formation for benzene.</span>
