cestrela7 [59]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

This is how I figured it out:

  1. 215.5 rounded to one significant figure is 200
  2. 101.02555 rounded to one significant figure is 100.
  3. 200 + 100 = 300.

Hope this helps!

Sound level B in decibels is defined as
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The approximate combined sound  intensity is I_{T}=1.1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}

Explanation:

The decibel  scale intensity for busy traffic is 80 dB. so intensity will be

10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{0}} )=80, therefore I_{1}=1\times10^{8}I_{0}=1\times10^{8} * 1\times10^{-12}W/m^{2}=1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}

In the same way for the loud conversation having a decibel intensity of 70 dB.

10log(\frac{I_{2}}{I_{0}} )=70, therefore I_{2}=1\times10^{7}I_{0}=1\times10^{7} * 1\times10^{-12}W/m^{2}=1\times10^{-5}W/m^{2}

Finally we add both of them I_{T}=I_{1}+I_{2}=1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}+1\times10^{-5}W/m^{2}=1.1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}, is the approximate combined sound  intensity.

A man pushes a heavy cart with a force exerted of 250 Newtons to keep it moving at a constant velocity. What is the kinetic fric
miv72 [106K]

It can't be less than 250 N or the cart wouldn't move at all. That means there is only 1 answer. It's between not enough info or 250 N. The answer is 250 N. If it was any more, there would be acceleration.

The Assignment: A fixed quantity of an ideal gas (R 0.28 kJ/kgK; Cv-0.71kJ/kgK) is expanded from an initial condition of 35 bar,
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Index of expansion: 4.93

Δu = -340.8 kJ/kg

q = 232.2 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The index of expansion is the relationship of pressures:

pi/pf

The ideal gas equation:

p1*v1/T1 = p2*v2/T2

p2 = p1*v1*T2/(T2*v2)

500 C = 773 K

20 C = 293 K

p2 = 35*0.1*773/(293*1.3) = 7.1 bar

The index of expansion then is 35/7.1 = 4.93

The variation of specific internal energy is:

Δu = Cv * Δt

Δu = 0.71 * (20 - 500) = -340.8 kJ/kg

The first law of thermodynamics

q = l + Δu

The work will be the expansion work

l = p2*v2 - p1*v1

35 bar = 3500000 Pa

7.1 bar = 710000 Pa

q = p2*v2 - p1*v1 + Δu

q = 710000*1.3 - 3500000*0.1 - 340800 = 232200 J/kg = 232.2 kJ/kg

A 740-kg boulder is raised from a quarry 119 m deep by a long uniform chain having a mass of 550 kg . This chain is of uniform s
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A) the maximum acceleration the boulder can have and still get out of the quarry

B) how long does it take to be lifted out at maximum acceleration if it started from rest

Explanation:

A)

let +y is upward. look below at the free body diagram. the mass M refers to the combined mass of the boulder and chain.

the weight of the chain is:   w_{c} =m_{c} g   and maximum tension is T=2.50 m_{c} g=1.41*10^4N

total mass and weight is :

M =m_{c}+ m_{b} =740kg+550kg=1290 kg

w_{M} =1.2650*10^4N

∑F_{y} =ma_{y}

T-M_{g} =Ma_{y}

a_{y} =(t-M_{g} )/M=(2.50m_{c} -M_{g} )/M=(2.50.550kg-1290kg)(9.8m/s^2)/1290kg

=0.645m/s^2

B)

maximum acceleration

a_{y} =0.645m/s^2\\\\y-y_{0} =119m\\v_{0y} =0

using y-y_{0} =v_{oy} t+1/2(a_{y} )t^2

to solve for t

t=\sqrt{2(y-y_{0} )/a_{y} }

t=\sqrt{2(119m)/0.645m/s^2} =19.20s
