Answer:

8.19m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Pressure, P= 11.6 psi = 79979.185 Pa

Gauge pressure is given as:

P = h*d*g

=> h = P/(d*g)

Where

h = height of tank

d = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

Density of water = 997 kg/m³

Therefore, the height of the tank is:

h = 79979.185/(997 * 9.8)

h = 8.19m

From fastest to slowest, rank the speeds of the balls 1 s after being thrown. Rank the speeds of the balls from fastest to slowe
Rus_ich [418]

Explanation:

From the given figure,

Mass of ball A is 4.9 kg and its initial speed is 8 m/s.

Mass of ball B is 1.9 kg and its initial speed is 14 m/s.

Mass of ball C is 0.7 kg and its initial speed is 2 m/s.

We need to find the final speed of the balls 1 s after being thrown. They all are thrown upward under the action of gravity. The equation of motion is : v = u -gt, g = 10 m/s²

For ball A,

v = 8-10(1) = = -2 m/s (downward)

For B,

v = 14-10(1) = 4 m/s (upward)

For C,

v = 2-10(1) = -8 m/s (downward)

It means the ranking is B>A>C i.e. the speed of ball B is the most and that of C is least.

All the balls are moving under the action of gravity. It would mean that the acceleration for all balls is same i.e. 10 m/s²

Define limitations in the operation conditions of a pn junction<br>​
suter [353]

Answer:

Such limitations are given below.

Explanation:

  • Each pn junction provides limited measurements of maximum forwarding current, highest possible inversion voltage as well as the maximum output level.
  • If controlled within certain adsorption conditions, the pn junction could very well offer satisfying performance.
  • In connector operation, the maximum inversion voltage seems to be of significant importance.
