Answer: Option (B)

Explanation: A stream transports its materials in different ways-

Dissolved load- Here, the materials gets dissolved when mixed with water and flows along with the stream.
Suspended load- Here, the materials are not fully dissolved in the water but they can be carried from one place to another in suspension mode, by the river.
Bed load- Bed load are transported in three different ways such as-

Sliding- here, the materials slides down along a curved surface under the water and carried away.
Rolling- here, the materials are solid and due to force exerted by water, it can roll and move to distant places.

Saltation- here, the materials are carried away in a series of jumps.

Thus, the most appropriate answer is option (B) i.e bedload.

Two containers (A and B) are in thermal contact with an environment at temperature T = 280 K. The two containers are connected b

Answer:

The maximum amount of work is $W = 1563.289 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The temperature of the environment is $T = 280\ K$

The volume of container A is $V_A = 2 m^3$

Initially the number of moles is $n = 1.2 \ moles$

The volume of container B is $V_B = 3.5 \ m^3$

At equilibrium of the gas the maximum work that can be done on the turbine is mathematically represented as

$W = P_A V_A ln[ \frac{V_B}{V_A} ]$

Now from the Ideal gas law

$P_A V_A = nRT$

So substituting for $P_A V_A$ in the equation above

$W = nRT ln [\frac{V_B}{V_A} ]$

Where R is the gas constant with a values of $R = 8.314 \ J/mol$

Substituting values we have that

$W = 1.2 * (8.314) * (280) * ln [\frac{3.5}{2} ]$

$W = 1563.289 \ J$

A 52 kg and a 95 kg skydiver jump from an airplane at an altitude of 4750 m, both falling in the pike position. Assume all value

Scilla [17]

Answer: 52 kg skydiver: 9.09 m/s and 522.55 s

95 kg skydiver: 12.3 m/s and 386.2 s

Explanation: Drag Force is an opposite force when an object is moving in a fluid.

For skydivers, when falling through the air, the forces acting on it are gravitational and drag forces. At a certain point, drag force equals gravitational force, which is constant on any part of the planet, producing a net force that is zero. Since there is no net force, there is no acceleration and, consequently, velocity is constant. When that happens, the person reached the Terminal Velocity.

Drag Force and Velocity are proportional to the squared speed. So, terminal velocity is given by:

$F_{G}=F_{D}$
