In an internal combustion engine, air at atmostpheric

Physics
1 answer:
notsponge [240]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1302 K or 1029 C

Explanation:

Air at atmospheric pressure has pressure of 1 atm

20 C = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Assume ideal gas, according to the ideal gas law:

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

Where P1, V1 and T1 are the pressure, volume and temperature of the gas before the compression and P2, V2 and T2 are the pressure, volume and temperature of the gas after the compression

T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2V_2}{P_1V_1}

Since the gas is compressed to 1/9 of its original volume, V2/V1 = 1/9:

T_2 = 293\frac{40}{9} = 1302 K or 1029 C

Suppose that the acceleration of a model rocket is proportional to the difference between 160 ft/sec and the rocket's velocity.
Levart [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given ,

dv / dt = k ( 160 - v )

dv / ( 160 - v ) = kdt

ln ( 160 - v ) = kt + c , where c is a constant

when t = 0 , v = 0

Putting the values , we have

c = ln 160

ln ( 160 - v ) = kt + ln 160

ln ( 160 - v / 160 ) = kt

(160 - v ) / 160 = e^{kt}

1 - v / 160 = e^{kt }

v / 160 = 1 - e^{kt }

v = 160 ( 1 - e^{kt } )

differentiating ,

dv / dt = - 160k e^{kt }

acceleration a   = - 160k e^{kt }

given when t = 0 , a = 280

280 = - 160 k

k = - 175

a = - 160 x - 175 e^{kt}

a = 28000 e^{kt}

when a = 128  t = ?

128 = 28000 e^{kt}

e^{kt } = .00457

Does wavelength affect the energy of a wave?
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Not quite

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. That means that waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength, while waves with a low frequency have a longer wavelength

What determines the strength of a wave?

Wave height is affected by wind speed, wind duration (or how long the wind blows), and fetch, which is the distance over water that the wind blows in a single direction. If wind speed is slow, only small waves result, regardless of wind duration or fetch.

So,

As Wavelength increases, The energy of the wave spreads and it decreases

Name two things radio waves have in common with visible light
kondaur [170]
Radio waves and visible light, as we perceive it, are both part of the EM spectrum. The only difference between them in terms of our perception is that we don't have receptors to 'see' radio waves. That's where radio receivers come into the picture*, to convert radio waves into sound impulses that we can hear.
