7 0

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours.  In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians.  So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

Consider an insulated tank with a volume V = 2 L is separated into two equal-volume parts by a thin wall. On the left is an idea
steposvetlana [31]

Answer

given,

V = 2 L

the left is an ideal gas at  P = 100 k Pa and T = 500 K

mass is constant

 m_1 = m_2

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}

Pressure is same because it's not changing due to process

\dfrac{V}{500} = \dfrac{2 V}{T_2}

T_2 = 1000\ K

\Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + (\Delta S)_{surr}

\Delta S_{univ} =m(C_v ln (\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}))+ R ln (\dfrac{V_2}{V_1})

m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}

m = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}}{287\times 500}

m = 1.39 x 10⁻³ Kg

\Delta S_{univ} =1.39\times 10^{-3}(0.718 ln\ 2+ 0.287 ln (2)

\Delta S_{univ} =0.968\times 10^{-3}\ kJ/K

A car is stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, the car starts
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

This happens because the coffee was at rest, at the time when the car accelerates to move forward the container containing the coffee also accelerates in the same direction, the liquid when moving suddenly spills. The same will happen if the car slows down, any sudden movement changes will cause the coffee to spill, understood by sudden movements when it accelerates or slows down.

There are competitions in which pilots fly small planes low over the ground and drop weights, trying to hit a target. Part A A p
tamaranim1 [39]

Explanation:

A pilot flying a weight; it takes t = 3.4 s to hit the ground, during which it travels a horizontal distance d = 120 m  

h = g/2*t^2

h= 4.903*3.4^2

h=56.701 m

V = d/t

V= 120/3.4

V=35.3 m/sec  

Now the pilot does a run at the same height but twice the speed.  

How much time (t1) does it take the weight to hit the ground?

t1 = t = 3.4 sec (depending just upon height)
