Answer:

The pressure produced on the air in the pump is 37.209 pounds per square inch.

Explanation:

By definition, the pressure is the force exerted on the piston divided by its area. Given that, force is distributed uniformly on the piston area, the formula to determine the pressure is:

p = \frac{F}{A}

Where:

p - Pressure, measured in pounds per square inch.

F - Force exerted on the piston, measured in pounds.

A - Piston area, measured in square inches.

If F = 16\,lb and A = 0.43\,in^{2}, the pressure produced on the air in the pump is:

p = \frac{16\,lb}{0.43\,in^{2}}

p = 37.209\,psi

The pressure produced on the air in the pump is 37.209 pounds per square inch.

You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 72 km/h and the other half at 98 km/h. On the way back
zimovet [89]

Answer: a. 85km/hr b.82.3km/hr

c. 84km/hr

Explanation: first let take the total time from San Antonio to Houston to be 2hr.

Half time 1hr was covered with speed of 72km/hr

Distance = speed*time=72km/hr *1hr

=72km

So too with the second half of 1hr covered with speed of 98km/hr

Distance = 98km

Total distance from Houston to San Antonio is 98+72 =170km

a. Average speed from San Antonio to Houston is

S1 =170/2

=85km/hr

b.half distance from Houston to San Antonio which is 170km/2

= 85km was covered with speed of 72km/hr first half, so time

t = dist/speed

t = 85/72 = 1hr 12 mins

Remaining 85 km covered with a speed of 98km/hr

Time = 85/98 = 0.88*60min

= 52 mins

Total time = 1hr +12mins +52mins

=2hr4mins= 124/60 hr

So average speed = distance/time

=170/124/60

Using reciprocal law

Average speed S2= 170*60/124

= 82.3km/hr

C. Average speed to and fro(entire tripe)

= (85+82.3)/2

=84km/hr

A flashlight contains a battery of two cells in series, with a bulb of resistance 12 Ohms. The internal resistance of each cell
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

1.5024

Explanation:

Draw a diagram. Put the two cells in series. Now draw 3 resistors. Two of them equal 0.26 ohms each. The third one is the lightbulb which is 12 ohms.

R = 0.26 + 0.26 + 12 = 12.52

The bulb has a voltage of 2.88 volts across it. You can get the current from that.

i = E / R

i = 2.88 / 12 =

i = 0.24 amps.

Now you can get the voltage drop across the two cells.

E = ?

R = 0.26

i = 0.24 amps

E = 0.26 * 0.24

E = 0. 0624

Finally divide the 2.88 by 2 to get 1.44

Each cell has an emf of 1.44 + 0.0624 = 1.5024

Un proyectil es lanzado horizontalmente desde una altura de 12 metro con una velocidad de 80 m/sg. a.Calcular el tiempo de vuelo
Naily [24]

Answer:

t= 1,56 s ,   x= 124,8 m , v = (80 i^ - 15,288 j ) m/s

Explanation:

Este es un ejercicio de lanzamiento proyectiles, comencemos por encontrar el tiempo que tarda en llegar al piso

        y = y₀ + v_{oy} t – ½ g t²

en este caso la altura inicial es y₀= 12 m y llega a y=0 , como es lanzado horizontalmente la velocidad vertical es cero (v_{oy}=0)

       0 = y₀ – ½ g t²

       t= √ (2 y₀/g)

calculemos

       t= √ ( 2 12 / 9,8)

       t= 1,56 s

El alcance del proyectil es la distancia horizontal recorrida  

        x = v₀ₓ t

        x = 80 1,56

        x= 124,8 m

La velocidad de impacto cuando toca el suelo

        vx = v₀ₓ = 80 ms

        v_{y} = v_{oy} – gt

        v_{y} = - 9,8 1,56

        v_{y} = - 15,288 m/s

la velocidad es

       v = (80 i^ - 15,288 j ) m/s

Traducttion  

This is a projectile launching exercise, let's start by finding the time it takes to reach the ground

        y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

in this case the initial height is i = 12 m and it reaches y = 0, as it is thrown horizontally the vertical speed is zero (v_{oy} = 0)

       0 =y₀I - ½ g t²

       t = √ (2y₀ / g)

let's calculate

       t = √ (2 12 / 9.8)

       t = 1.56 s

Projectile range is the horizontal distance traveled

        x = v₀ₓ t

        x = 80 1.56

        x = 124.8 m

Impact speed when it hits the ground

        vₓ = v₀ₓ = 80 ms

        v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

        v_{y} = - 9.8 1.56

        v_{y} = - 15,288 m / s

the speed is

       v = (80 i ^ - 15,288 j) m / s
