Answer: The work done in lifting something is W=mgh where m is the mass of the objet, g is the gravity acceleration and h is the height, this work is done because you are "fighting" against the force of gravity.

so in this case we have W = 20kg*9.8m/s*1m= 196N

An architect is redesigning a rectangular room on the blueprints of a house. She decides to double the width of the room, increa
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:3.6

Explanation:

Given

Architect decide to double the width

length increases by 50 percent

height increases by 20 percent

Let L,B,H be length,height and width of rectangular room

L'=1.5L

B'=2B

H'=1.2H

therefore new volume V'=L'\times B'\times H'

V'=1.5L\times 2B\times 1.2H

V'=3.6LBH

new volume is 3.6 times the original

At 80 degrees celsius the vapor pressure of benzene is 753 torr and that of toluene is 290 torr. What is the total pressure and
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The total pressure of the solution is 598.66 torr

while the vapor pressure of the components is vapor pressure of benzene is =502 torr and that of toluene = 96.6 tor

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to look at the known variables, the unknown variables, and then we select the appropriate relations between the known variables and the unknown

Here we have the temperature of the gases t = 80°C

the pressures of benzene = 753 torr

the pressures of toluene = 290 torr

mole fraction of benzene in solution = 2/3

mole fraction of toluene in solution = 1/3

the unknown variables = composition of the solution  and the total pressure of the solution

From here given the known variables and the required variables, the appropriate relation bstween the known and unknown variables is Route's Law

Raoult's relates the vapor pressure of a mixture of gases to the mole fraction of solute gases introduced in the  gas solution. Raoult's Law is expressed by the formula: Psolution = Χsolvent1×Psolvent1 + Χsolvent2×Psolvent2+ ... .

where. Psolution = vapor pressure of the solution and

Χsolvent1 = mole fraction of solvent 1

Psolvent1 = vapor pressure of solvent1

Thus we have by Raoult's Law

P_{solution} = X_{benzene} × P_{benzene}+ X_{toluene}×P_{toluene}

which is =2/3×753 + 1/3×290 = 502 + 96.6 = 598.66 torr

and composition vapor pressure of benzene is 502 torr

while the composition vapor pressure of toluene is 96.6 torr

Which light is most sensitive to the eyes?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Our eyes are most sensitive to the wavelengths corresponding to the yellow and green colors of the spectrum. Flashy signs and some fire engines are painted in a yellowish-green color to attract our attention.

The air in a car tire la compressed when the car rolls over a rock. If the air
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

the signs of heat and work are; -Q and -W

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics is given by; ΔU = Q − W

where;

ΔU is the change in internal energy of a system,

Q is the net heat transfer (the sum of all heat transfer into and out of the system)

W is the net work done (the sum of all work done on or by the system).

Now, The system in this case is the tire and since the air gets warmer, heat must have left the system. Therefore Q is negative (-Q).

Since work is done by the system, W remains negative.

Thus, the signs of heat and work are; -Q and - W

A cylinder 0.170 m in diameter rotates in a lathe at 530 rpm . what is the tangential speed of the surface of the cylinder?
Ad libitum [116K]
Diameter = 0.170 meter
Circumference = 0.170 π meters

530 rpm = 530 circumferences / minute

               =  (530 x 0.170 π meters) / minute

               =      283.06 meter.minute

               =        4.72 meters/second
