P14.003A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.1 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressur
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank is 0.0189 m

Explanation:

Given data:

d = inside diameter = 8.1 m

P = internal pressure = 1.26 MPa

σ = 270 MPa

factor of safety = 2

Question: Determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank, tmin = ?

The allow factor of safety:

\sigma _{a}  =\frac{\sigma }{factor-of-safety} =\frac{270}{2} =135MPa

The minimun wall thickness:

t=\frac{Pd}{4\sigma _{a} } =\frac{1.26*8.1}{4*135} =0.0189m

a)Show that whennbecomes very large, the energy levels of the hydrogen atom are getting closer to energy.b)Are the rays of these
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

Energy of electron in  hydrogen atom is given by

E_n= \frac{13.6}{n^2}

now as becomes large

ΔE= E_n+1 - E_n= 18.6 eV(1/n^2- 1/(n+1)^2)

now, as n increases ΔE_n decreases

in the limit n→∞ ,  ΔE_n→0. Thus with increase in n, energy level come close to each other.

b) Since, the wavelength of the rays depends upon the energy level hence they too come closer.

c)Near the ionization threshold the energy level of the atoms come closer and the total energy of the electron becomes almost so that it can be easily removed from the orbit.

Energy can be changed from one form to another. Which terms can be used to describe these changes? Select all that apply.
aliya0001 [1]

Energy is the capacity to do work. Energy exists in various forms in the entire universe.

It  may be light,sound,electric,magnetic,kinetic,potential,thermal energy etc.

As per the law of conservation of energy, it is neither created not destroyed. It can change from one form to another form.The total energy of the universe is always constant.

The process in which energy will change from one form to another form is called energy conversion.

There is also another terminology for energy conversion called energy transformation.

Energy transference is the process in which energy will be transferred from one body to another body.

Hence the correct answer to this question will be conversion and transformation

A 2000 kg car is moving at 15 m/sec when it collides with a 1200 kg car sitting still. Briefly compare the impulse imparted on t
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The 1200 kg car.

Explanation:

The 1200 kg car had bo momentum at the initial stage of the journey because it wasn't on motion. But after collision with the 2000 kg car it gained alot of momentum.
