Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 h because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen into

the bloodstream. Without allowing the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends, which can be painful and even fatal. Military special operation forces are especially at risk. What is the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of 16 m in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of 8.1 km the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is 0.87 kg/m3.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let pressure at surface of earth be P Pa.  

pressure at height of 8.1 km in air can be calculated as follows .

pressure due to column of air of 8.1 km height

= h d g , h is height , d is density of air and g is acceleration due to gravity

= 8.1 x 1000 x .87 x 9.8 = 6.9 x 10⁴ Pa .

pressure at the height of 8.1 km

= P - 6.9 x 10⁴ Pa

Pressure due to  column  of 16 m in the sea

= h d g

16 x 1000 x 9.8

= 15.68 x 10⁴ Pa .

Pressure at depth of 16m

= P + 15.68 x 10⁴

pressure difference between points at height of 8.1 km and pressure at point 16 m deep

=  P + 15.68 x 10⁴ -  P +  6.9 x 10⁴ Pa

= 22.58 x 10⁴ Pa .

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
sdas [7]

Answer:

0.34 m

Explanation:

From the question,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound, f = frequency, λ = Wave length

Make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f............... Equation 2

Given: v = 340 m/s, f = 500 Hz.

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = 340/500

λ = 0.68 m

But,  the distance between a point of rarefaction and the next compression point, in the resulting sound is half wave length

Therefore,

λ/2 = 0.68/2

λ/2 = 0.34 m

Hence, the distance between a point of rarefaction and the next compression point, in the resulting sound is 0.34 m

What is the frequency in hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute? What is its period?
Harman [31]

1333.3 is the frequency in the hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute. 0.00075 is its period.

The frequency of a repeated event is its number of instances per unit of time. In some cases, it is also referred to as temporal frequency or ordinary frequency to underline differences with spatial and angular frequencies, respectively.

The length of time it takes for a particle in a medium to complete one full vibrational cycle is the period of a wave. Being a time, a period is measured in time units like seconds, hours, days, or years. The Earth's orbit around the Sun has a duration of around 365 days, and one cycle of the Earth lasts 365 days.

frequency = cycle /second

frequency = 80000 / 60

frequency = 1333.3 hertz

Period = 1 / frequency

Period = 1 / 1,333.3

Period = 0.00075
