Answer:

515.22 m/s

Explanation:

Formula for root mean square velocity is SQRT (3RT/M)

Where,

R = Rydberg's constant = 8.314 Kg. m²/ s². K. mol

T = Temperature in Kelvin

M = Molar mass in Kg/mol

First calculate molar mass,

As nitrogen is diatomic molecule,

Its molar mass is

M = 2(14) = 28 g/mol

Convert unit into Kg/mol

28 g/mol x 1 Kg/1000g = 2.8x10¯² Kg/mol

Convert temperature into kelvin

T = 25 + 273 = 298K

Put all values in formula

Vrms = SQRT (3RT/M)

Vrms = SQRT (3x8.314x298/2.8x10¯²)

Vrms = SQRT (265454. 14)

Vrms = 515.22 m/s

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 730 m/h at a heading of 65.3 ◦ . The velo

Answer:

Plane will 741.6959 m apart after 1.7 hour

Explanation:

We have given time = 1.7 hr

So if we draw the vectors of a 2d graph we see that the difference in angles is = $102^{\circ}-65.3^{\circ}=36.7^{\circ}$

Speed of first plane = 730 m/h

So distance traveled by first plane = 730×1.7 = 1241 m

Speed of second plane = 590 m/hr

So distance traveled by second plane = 590×1.7 = 1003 m

We represent these distances as two sides of the triangle, and the distance between the planes as the side opposing the angle 58.6.

Using the law of cosine, $r^2$ representing the distance between the planes, we see that:

$r^2=1241^2+1003^2-2\times 1003\times 1241cos(36.7)=550112.8295$

r = 741.6959 m

Help me please I can't get the final step

inna [77]

Answer:

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}$

Explanation:

<u>Dimensional Analysis</u>

It's given the relation between quantities A, B, and C as follows:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{3}{2}B^mC^n$

and the dimensions of each variable is:

$A=L^2T^2$

$B=LT^{-1}$

$C=LT^2$

Substituting the dimensions into the relation (the coefficient is not important in dimension analysis):

$\displaystyle L^2T^2=\left(LT^{-1}\right)^m\left(LT^2\right)^n$

Operating:

$L^2T^2=\left(L^mT^{-m}\right)\left(L^nT^{2n}\right)$

$L^2T^2=L^{m+m}T^{-m+2n}$

Equating the exponents:

$m+n=2$

$-m+2n=2$

Adding both equations:

$3n=4$

Solving:

$n=4/3$

$m=2-4/3=2/3$

Answer:

$\mathbf{\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}}$

25% part (c) assume that d is the distance the cheetah is away from the gazelle when it reaches full speed. Derive an expression

levacccp [35]

maximum speed of cheetah is

$v_1 = v_{max}$

speed of gazelle is given as

$v_2 = v_{g}$

Now the relative speed of Cheetah with respect to Gazelle

$v_{12} = v_1 - v_2$

$v_{12} = v_{max} - v_g$

now the relative distance between Cheetah and Gazelle is given initially as "d"

now the time taken by Cheetah to catch the Gazelle is given as

$d = v_{12}* t$

so by rearranging the terms we can say

$t = \frac{d}{v_{12}}$

$t = \frac{d}{v_{max} - v_g}$

so above is the relation between all given variable

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______

Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules
