To solve this problem we will apply the definition of the ideal gas equation, where we will clear the density variable. In turn, the specific volume is the inverse of the density, so once the first term has been completed, we will simply proceed to divide it by 1. According to the definition of 1 atmosphere, this is equivalent in the English system to

1atm = 2116lb/ft^2

The ideal gas equation said us that,

PV = nRT

Here,

P = pressure

V = Volume

R = Gas ideal constant

T = Temperature

n = Amount of substance (at this case the mass)

Then

\frac{n}{V} = \frac{P}{RT}

The amount of substance per volume is the density, then

\rho = \frac{P}{RT}

Replacing with our values,

\rho = \frac{5.6*2116}{1716*850}

\rho = 0.00812slug/ft^3

Finally the specific volume would be

v = \frac{1}{\rho}

v = 123ft^3/slug

Which among the following statement/s is correct?
seropon [69]

Answer:

(D) None

Explanation:

The force of gravity is the force pulling every element of matter together. The more the matter the higher the force of gravity.

Examples of this force at work are;

  • The force that causes an apple to fall from the tree
  • The force that causes a rock to roll downside a hill
  • The force causing people to walk on the earth surface instead of floating

The force that facilitates a pen on your hand to write on a paper is friction force between the pen and the paper. Gravitational force acts downwards thus force applied on an object beside you is not the force of gravity.

if you run off the pavement, you should: turn the steering wheel quickly toward the road steer straight and slow down before att
omeli [17]

pavement is defined as the surface of Road or sidewalk.

for example, the surface of Expressway.

There are two types of pavement.

rigid pavement which consists of one layer.

flexible pavement which consist of multiple layers.

While driving on roads of rural areas, if our right wheel moves off the pavement, we should always hold the steering wheel firmly and then take our foot off the pedal, then apply brake lightly until we are moving at a low speed.

if you run off the pavement, you should: turn the steering wheel quickly toward the road steer straight and slow down before attempting to return to the pavement steer straight ahead and speed up apply the brakes hard

The water in the plumbing in a house is at a gauge pressure of 300,000 pa. What force does this cause on the top of the tank ins
liraira [26]

Answer:

60 000 N

Explanation:

1 pa = 1 N/m^2

you have 300 000 of these   = 300 000 N /m^2

    but only an area of .2 m^2

                    300 000 N / m^2  * .2 m^2 = 60 000 N

When an unbalanced force acts on an object,
Gwar [14]
When balanced forces follow up on an object, the object won't move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.
