Observe yourself breathing and count the number of times you inhale per second. During each breath you probably inhale 0.66 L of

air. Assume the pressure is 1 atm and the temperature is 20∘C. Only about 21% of air is O2. 1. How many oxygen molecules do you inhale if you are at sea level?

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Robert Boyle's law where:

PV=nRT

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

n = amount of substance

R = Ideal gas constant

We start by calculating the volume of inhaled O_2 for it:

V = 21\% * 0.66L

V = 0.1386L

Our values are given as

P = 1atm

T=293K R = 0.083145kJ*mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Using the equation to find n, we have:

PV=nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{(1)(0.1386)}{(0.0821)(293)}

n = 5.761*10^{-3}mol

Number of molecules would be found through Avogadro number, then

\#Molecules = 5.761*10^{-3}*6.022*10^{23}

\#Molecules = 3.469*10^{21} molecules

A horizontal disk with a radius of 10 cm rotates about a vertical axis through its center. The disk starts from rest at t = 0 an
Tom [10]

Answer:

0.69s

Explanation:

10 cm = 0.1 m

Let t be the time that radial and tangential components of the linear acceleration of a point on the rim be equal in magnitude. At that time we have the angular velocity would be

\omega = \alpha t = 2.1 t

And so the radial acceleration is

a_r = \omega^2 r = (2.1t)^2 r = 2.1^2 t^2 * 0.1= 0.441 t^2 m/s^2

The tangential acceleration is always the same since angular acceleration is constant:

a_t = \alpha * r = 2.1 * 0.1 = 0.21 m/s^2

For these 2 quantities to be the same

a_r = a_t

0.441 t^2 = 0.21

t^2 = 0.21/0.441 = 0.4762

t = \sqrt{0.4762} = 0.69 s

A man supports himself and the uniform horizontal beam pulling the rope with a force T.The weights of men and the beam are 883 N
artcher [175]

Answer:

T=502.5N

Ax=171.8N

Explanation:

The computation of the tension T in the rope and the forces exerted by the pin at A is shown below:

vertical forces sum = Ay + Tsin20 + T - 245 - 883 = 0

Now  

horizontal forces sum = Ax - Tcos70

Now Moment about B

-Ay × 4.8 + 245 × 2.4 + 883 × 1.8=0

Ay=453.6N

Now substitute in sum of vertical forces T=502.5N

Ax=171.8N

A compressed spring has elastic potential energy. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: True

Explanation:

As the spring is compressed, it acumulates energy, and the spring "wants to release that energy". This acumulated energy, (potential energy) is called "elastic potential energy" because of the elastical nature of the spring, that when compressed it wants to return to the original shape. So the sentence is true

There is a current of 0.83 A through a lightbulb in a 120 V circuit. What is the resistance of this lightbulb?
Lemur [1.5K]

Considering the Ohm's law, the resistance of the lightbulb is 144.58 Ω.

<h3>Definition of current</h3>

The flow of electricity through an object, such as a wire, is known as current (I). Its unit of measure is amps (A). So the current is a measure of the speed at which the charge passes a given reference point in a specified direction.

<h3>Definition of voltage</h3>

The driving force (electrical pressure) behind the flow of a current is known as voltage and is measured in volts (V) (voltage can also be referred to as the potential difference or electromotive force). That is, voltage is a measure of the work required to move a charge from one point to another.

<h3>Definition of resistance</h3>

Resistance (R) is the difficulty that a circuit opposes to the flow of a current and it is measured in ohms (Ω).

<h3>Ohm's law</h3>

Ohm's law establishes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance in an electrical circuit.

This law establishes that the intensity of the current that passes through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the same and inversely proportional to the resistance that it presents.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is expressed as:

I=\frac{V}{R}

Where:

  • I is the current measured in amps (A).
  • V the voltage measured in volts (V).
  • R the resistance that is measured in ohms (Ω).

<h3>Resistance of the lightbulb</h3>

In this case, you know that the voltage between two points in a circuit is 120 V and there is a current of 0.83 A.

Replacing in the Ohm's Law:

0.83A=\frac{120 V}{R}

Solving:

0.83 A× R=  120 V

R=\frac{120 V}{0.83A}

<u><em>R= 144.58 Ω</em></u>

Finally, the resistance of the lightbulb is 144.58 Ω.
