If feathers have a density of 0.500 lbs/ft^3, what volume in ft^3 will 8.0 lbs of feathers occupy?

OleMash [197]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>The volume of the feathers in ft³ = 16 ft³</em>

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of mass of a body to the corresponding volume of that body. The S.I unit of Density is kg/m³

Mathematically it can be expressed as,

D = m/v ................................... Equation 1

making v the subject of the equation above,

v = m/D ............................. Equation 2

Where D = Density of the feathers, m = mass of the feathers, v = volume of the feathers.

Given: D = 0.50 lbs/ft³, m = 8.0 lbs.

Substituting into equation 2

v = 8/0.5

v = 16 ft³

<em>Thus the volume of the feathers in ft³ = 16 ft³</em>

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given mass of piston \left ( m\right )

no. of moles =n

Given Pressure remains same

Temperature changes from T_1 to T_2

Work done\left ( W\right ) is given by=\int_{V_1}^{V_2}PdV

W=P\left ( V_2-V_1\right )

also PV_1=nRT_1

PV_2=nRT_2

W=nR\left ( T_2-T_1\right )

Match the scenario to the type of potential energy represented.
Phantasy [73]

Explanation:

A battery sits in an iPod before the iPod is turned on      Chemical

A man at a carnival lifts a hammer high over his head

before swinging it down onto a pad.                                 Gravitational

A positively charged particle is slowly moved away

from a strong, negatively charged plate                               Electric

The string of a bow and arrow is pulled tight.                      Elastic

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. There are two main forms of energy which are:

  • Potential energy
  • Kinetic energy

Chemical energy energy is a form of potential energy produced through chemical reactions. A car battery is an electrochemical that converts chemical energy into electrical energy for use in the iPod. The battery is made up of electrodes through which electron flows in one direction and current is generated by the potential difference set up

Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy that tends to pull all bodies to the center of the earth. It is an attractive force.

Electrical energy is a form of energy produced through the flow of electric current in a body. As the positive charge moves away from the strong negative plate, an electric current is produced.

Elastic energy is a potential energy stored in elastic bodies that can be stretched and are not plastic.

Assume that the polymer material has a constant refractive index of 1.5. For light of 600nm wavelength at normal incidence, what
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Minimum thickness will be 100 nm

Explanation:

We have given refractive index is n = 1.5

Wavelength of the light incidence \lambda= 600 nm

We have to find the smallest thickness of the film so that there will be minimum light reflect

For minimum thickness of non reflecting film

t=\frac{\lambda }{4n} , here t is thickness, \lambda is wavelength and n is refractive index

Putting all values t=\frac{600}{4\times 1.5}=100nm

So minimum thickness will be 100 nm
