A gas is placed in a storage tank at a pressure of 49.2 atm at 39.0C . As a safety device, a small metal plug in the tank is mad

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

$P_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$P_1=49.2 atm\\T_1=39.0^oC = 312.15 K\\P_2=?\\T_2=198^oC=471.15 K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{49.2atm }{312.15 K}=\frac{P_2}{471.15 K}\\\\P_2=74.26 atm$

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Two canoeists in identical canoes exert the same effort paddling and hence maintain the same speed relative to the water. One pa

Serga [27]

Answer:

Speed of river is 0.45 m/s

Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s

Explanation:

$v_r$ = Speed of river

$v_c$ = Speed of canoe

$v_r+v_c=2.8\ m/s$

$v_r-v_c=-1.9\ m/s$

Adding the equations we get

$2v_r=0.9\\\Rightarrow v_r=\frac{0.9}{2}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.45\ m/s$

$0.42+v_c=2.8\ m/s\\\Rightarrow v_c=2.8-0.45\\\Rightarrow v_c=2.65\ m/s$

Speed of river is 0.45 m/s

Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s

What is the current in a 160V circuit if the resistance is 2Ω? V= I= R =

sveta [45]

Answer:

80 amperes

Explanation:

Current in the circuit = ?

Voltage in the circuit = 160 Volts

Resistance = 2 Ω

Voltage = Current x Resistance

V = IR

160V = I x 2 Ω

I = 160V / 2 Ω

I = 80 Amperes

Therefore the current in the circuit is 80 amperes :)

A 1.5m wire carries a 7 A current when a potential difference of 68 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Working...

length of wire L = 1.5 m

current I = 7 A

potential difference V = 68 Volt

According to Ohm's Law

V = IR

R = V/I

R = 68/7

R = 9.7 Ω
