Answer:

(a)  0.72 lbm· ft/s²

(b)  20.3 kPa,  2.94 lbf / in²

(c)  98.6 ºF,  310 K

(d)  1.5 x 10⁻² J,  6.1 x 10⁻² cal

Explanation:

Our strategy here will be to find the conversion factors for the quantities we are asked in each part, and perform the calculations.

(a) 10,000 dynes to lbm ·ft/s²

here we are asked to convert  the  force of 10,000 dynes to lbm ·ft/s². Recall that F= ma ( m= mass, a = acceleration), thus

10,000 dynes = 10 g cm/s²

converting the force

10,000 g cm/s² x (1 lbm/454 g) x (1 ft / 30.48 cm ) /s² = 0.72 lbm· ft/s²

(b)

1 atm = 101.33 pa

0.2 atm x ( 101.33 kPa ) = 20.3 kPa

1 atm = 14.7 lbf / in²

0.2 atm x ( 14.7 lbf / in² /atm ) = 2.94 lbf / in²

(c) The formula for the conversion from ºC to ºF is:

ºF = 9/5 ºC +32

ºF = 9/5 ( 37ºC) + 32 = 98.6 ºF

K = ºC + 273

K = (37 + 273) K = 310 K

(d) 50 in²·lbm/s² to joules and calories

Since the unit in² ·lbm/s² is not that common, lets convert it using their definition.

These are energy units, and we know the energy is the force times distance. In turn force is mass times acceleration so that the units of energy are mass time distance per time squared.

Joules is the unit of energy  in the metric system.

50 in² lbm/s² = 50 in²x ( 2.54 cm/in x 1m /100cm)² x (1lbm x 0.454 Kg/lbm)/s²

= 1.5 x 10⁻² Kg m²/² =  1.5 x 10⁻² J

To convert to cal it wilñl be easier to use the value in joules just calculated:

1.5 x 10⁻² J x  (4.184 cal/J) = 6.1 x 10⁻² cal

Which to which! Ahhhh.

Answer:

1.a

2. b

Explanation:

Distillation is a process whereby a mixture of liquids having different vapor pressures is separated into its components. At first one might think that this would be quite simple: if you have a solution consisting of liquid A that boils at 50°C and liquid B with a boiling point of 90°C, all that would be necessary would be to heat the mixture to some temperature between these two values; this would boil off all the A (whose vapor could then be condensed back into pure liquid A), leaving pure liquid B in the pot. But that overlooks that fact that these liquids will have substantial vapor pressures at all temperatures, not only at their boiling points.

What problem could happen if deep sea divers used pure oxygen in their tanks?
AysviL [449]
Hi there!

Deep sea divers CANNOT use pure oxygen in their tanks. Pure oxygen is deadly, and can kill them. This would be called Oxygen toxicity

Hope this helps you!

Which direction does air circulate into low pressure zones in the northern and southern hemisphere
Yuri [45]
<span>Now consider a low pressure area on a disk as shown below.A parcel of air at point A would move toward the center of the low pressure area. That movement would take it farther away from the center of the disk and therefore it would move to the west. A parcel of air at B would move toward the center of the low pressure area which would also take it closer to the center of the spinning disk where its speed is greater than the surrounding points. It would appear to move to the east. With A moving to the west and B moving to the east the line from A to B is rotating counterclockwise.</span>
