Answer:

Explanation:

submerged volume of pump = 40 x 12⁻³ ft³

density of oil = .9 x 62.4 lb ft⁻³ ( specific gravity x density of water )

mass of displaced oil = 40 x 12⁻³ x  .9 x 62.4 lb

= 1.3 lb

buoyant force = 1.3 lb

weight of pump = 14.6 lb

extra force needed for balancing pump by spring

= 14.6 - 1.3

= 13.3 lb .

Helium gas is compressed by an adiabatic compressor from an initial state of 14 psia and 50°F to a final temperature of 320°F in
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The value is  P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The initial pressure is  P_1 = 14\  psla

  The initial temperature is  T_1 =  50 \ F = (50 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 = 283  \  K

   The final temperature is  T_2 =  320 \ F = (320 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 =433  \  K

Generally the equation for adiabatic process is mathematically represented as

         PT^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  Constant

=>      P_1T_1^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  P_2T_2^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} }

Generally for a monoatomic gas  \gamma =  \frac{5}{3}

So

           14 * 283^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} } =P_2 * 433^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} }

=>       14 * 283^{-2.5} =P_2 * 433^{-2.5}

=>       P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

How fast is a wave traveling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{77 \: m/s}}}}

☯ Question :

  • How fast is a wave travelling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

☯ \underbrace{ \sf{Required \: Answer  :  }}

☥ Given :

  • Wavelength ( λ ) = 7 meters
  • Frequency ( f ) = 11 Hz

☥ To find :

  • Speed of sound ( v ) = ?

☄ We know ,

\boxed{ \sf{v = f \times λ}}

where ,

  • v = speed of sound
  • f = frequency
  • λ = wavelength

Now, substitute the values and solve for v.

➺ \sf{v = 11 \times 7}

➺ \boxed{ \sf{v = 77 \: m/s}}

-------------------------------------------------------------------

✑ Additional Info :

  • Frequency : The number of complete vibrations made by a particle of a body in one second is called it's frequency. It is denoted by the letter f . The SI unit of frequency is hertz ( Hz ).

  • Wavelength : The distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a sound wave is called wavelength of that wave. It is denoted by λ ( lambda ) and it's SI unit is m.

  • Speed of a sound wave : The distance covered by a sound wave in one second is called speed of sound wave. It depends on the product of wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Have a wonderful time! ツ

Your mom is making lunch which forces are acting on your mom
N76 [4]

The forces acting on your mom while cooking is Air resistance and the force of friction

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>1. Air resistance:</u>

  • In simple words, Air resistance can be stated as the type of friction  between the air and the other materials.
  • In this scenario, there will be an air resistance and the air hits the mom while cooking via the doors or windows

<u>2. The force of friction:</u>

  • In simple words, friction can be stated as, the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.
  • While cooking the food mom would experience the friction since friction is the transfer of heat, and cooking is the process of receiving that heat.
