Answer: 20 newtons

Explanation:

Given that:

Force applied by Samantha = 10 newtons

Force applied by Emily = 10 newtons

Direction of both forces = same

Net force of their efforts = ?

Since net force of forces applied in the same direction is obtained by adding up the seperate forces applied, then

Net force = (10 newtons + 10 newtons)

Net force = 20 newtons

Thus, the net force of their efforts is 20 newtons.

.1 An 8-ft 3 tank contains air at an initial temperature of 808F and initial pressure of 100 lbf/in. 2 The tank develops a small
Alina [70]

Correct temperature is 80°F

Answer:

T_f = 38.83°F

Explanation:

We are given;

Volume; V = 8 ft³

Initial Pressure; P_i = 100 lbf/in² = 100 × 12² lbf/ft²

Initial temperature; T_i = 80°F = 539.67 °R

Time for outlet flow; t_o = 90 s

Mass flow rate at outlet; m'_o = 0.03 lb/s

Final pressure; P_f = 30 lbf/in² = 30 × 12² lbf/ft²

Now, from ideal gas equation,

Pv = RT

Where v is initial specific volume

R is ideal gas constant = 53.33 ft.lbf/°R

Thus;

v = RT/P

v_i = 53.33 × 539.67/(100 × 12²)

v_i = 2 ft³/lb

Formula for initial mass is;

m_i = V/v_i

m_i = 8/2

m_i = 4 lb

Now change in mass is given as;

Δm = m'_o × t_o

Δm = 0.03 × 90

Δm = 2.7 lb

Now,

m_f = m_i - Δm

Thus; m_f = 4 - 2.7

m_f = 1.3 lb

Similarly in above;

v_f = V/m_f

v_f = 8/1.3

v_f = 6.154 ft³/lb

Again;

Pv = RT

Thus;

T_f = P_f•v_f/R

T_f = (30 × 12² × 6.154)/53.33

T_f = 498.5°R

Converting to °F gives;

T_f = 38.83°F

What are the wavelength ranges for the following? (a) the AM radio band (540–1600 kHz) maximum wavelength m minimum wavelength m
Pie

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) AM radio band (540–1600 kHz)

frequency = 540 kHz = 540 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 540 x 10³

= 555.55 m

frequency = 1600 kHz = 1600 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 1600 x 10³

= 187.5  m

maximum wavelength  =   555.55 m

minimum wavelength =  187.5 m

b )

AM radio band (88 - 108 MHz)

frequency = 88 MHz = 88 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 88 x 10⁶

= 3.41 m

frequency = 108 MHz = 108 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 108 x 10⁶

= 2.78  m

maximum wavelength  =   3.41 m

minimum wavelength =  2.78 m

A laser pulse of duration 25 ms has a total energy of 1.4 J. The wavelength of this radiation is
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the energy of one photon in the radiation:

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\

where,

E = Energy of one photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of radiation = 567 nm = 5.67 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(6.625\ x\ 10^{-34}\ J.s)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{5.67\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}

E = 3.505 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now, the number of photons to make up the total energy can be calculated as follows:

Total\ Energy = nE\\1.4\ J = n(3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J)\\n = \frac{1.4\ J}{3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J}\\

<u>n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons</u>
