Answer:

x = 93.8 m.

Explanation:

During the entire the reaction time interval, the vehicle continues moving at the same speed that it was moving, i.e., 60 mi/hr.

In order to calculate the distance in meters, travelled at that speed, it is advisable first to convert the 60 mi/hr to m/seg, as follows:

60 mi/hr = 60*\frac{1hr}{3,600s}*\frac{1,605m}{1mi} = 26.8 m/s

Applying the definition of average velocity, we can solve for Δx, as follows:

Δx = 26.8 m/s* 3.5 s = 93.8 m

Why are Gas cars Bad?(cons) pls help me its part of project thx<br>:) thx if u do help​

Answer:

  • Depletes Fossil Fuels
  • Polution

Explanation:

Fossil Fuels take millions of years to be made. Gasoline is made up of primarily petroleum (a fossil fuel) which is easily refined into gasoline or kerosene. This means that once you run out of a fossil fuel...you're out of it.

Gas cars are also very big polutants. If you've ever heard of an emmisions test for a car, it is a test that sees how much pollution a car puts out into the air. It meassures how safe those levels are. This is a big indicator of how much cars pollute becasue there is a need to test your car every year. The gases that can be put into the air are harmful not only to humans and animals but to the climate and atmosphere.

Air fl ows isentropically through a duct. At section 1, the pressure and temperature are 250 kPa and 1258C, and the velocity is
abruzzese [7]

The correct temperature is 125°C

Answer:

A) M_a1 = 0.5

B) T2 = 232.17 K

C) V2 = 611 m/s

D) m' = 187 kg/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Pressure; P1 = 250 kPa

Temperature; T1 = 125°C = 398 K

Speed; v1 = 200 m/s

Area; A2 = 0.25 m²

M_a2 = 2

A) Formula for M_a1 is given by;

M_a1 = v/a1

Where;

v is speed

a1 = √kRT

k is specific heat capacity ratio of air = 1.4

R is a gas constant with a value of R = 287 J/kg·K

T is temperature

Thus;

M_a1 = 200/√(1.4 × 287 × 398)

M_a1 = 200/399.895

M_a1 = 0.5

B) To find T2, let's first find the Stagnation pressure T0

Thus;

T0/T1 = 1 + ((k - 1)/2) × (M_a1)²

T0 = T1(1 + ((k - 1)/2) × (M_a1)²)

T0 = 398(1 + ((1.4 - 1)/2) × (0.5)²)

T0 = 398(1 + (0.2 × 0.5²))

T0 = 398 × 1.05

T0 = 417.9 K

Now,similarly;

T0/T2 = 1 + ((k - 1)/2) × (M_a2)²

T2 = T0/[(1 + ((k - 1)/2) × (M_a2)²)]

T2 = 417.9/(1 + (0.2 × 2²))

T2 = 417.9/1.8

T2 = 232.17 K

C) V2 is gotten from the formula;

T0 = T2 + (V2)²/(2C_p)

Cp of air = 1005 J/Kg.K

Thus;

V2 = √(2C_p)[T0 - T2]

V2 = √((2 × 1005) × (417.9 - 232.17))

V2 =√373317.3

V2 = 611 m/s

D) mass flow is given by the formula;

m' = ρA2•V2

Where;

ρ is Density of air with an average value of 1.225 kg/m³

m' = 1.225 × 0.25 × 611

m' = 187 kg/s

Convert 850 nm wavelength into frequency, eV, wavenumber, joules and ergs.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.5294×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Wavenumber = 1.1765×10⁶ m⁻¹

Energy = 2.3365x 10⁻¹⁹ J , 1.4579 eV , 2.3365x 10⁻¹² erg

Explanation:

Given the wavelength = 850 nm

1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

So, wavelength is  850×10⁻⁹ m

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

c = frequency × Wavelength

Where, c is the speed of light having value = 3×10⁸ m/s

So, Frequency is:

Frequency = c / Wavelength

Frequency=\frac {3\times 10^8\ m/s}{850\times 10^{-9}\ m}

Frequency = 3.5294×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Wavenumber is the reciprocal of wavelength.

So,

Wavenumber = 1 / Wavelength  = 1 / 850×10⁻⁹ m

Wavenumber = 1.1765×10⁶ m⁻¹

Also,

Energy=h\times frequency

where, h is Plank's constant having value as 6.62x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

So,

Energy = 6.62x 10⁻³⁴ J.s × 3.5294×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Energy = 2.3365x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Also,

1 J = 6.24×10¹⁸ eV

So,

Energy = 2.3365x 10⁻¹⁹ × 6.24×10¹⁸ eV

Energy = 1.4579 eV

Also,

1 J = 10⁷ erg

So,

Energy = 2.3365x 10⁻¹⁹ × 10⁷ erg

Energy = 2.3365x 10⁻¹² erg
