Two pounds of water vapor at 30 psia fill the 4-ft3 left chamber of a partitioned system. The right chamber has twice the volume

of the left and is initially evacuated. Determine the pressure of the water after the partition has been removed and enough heat has been transferred so that the temperature of the water is 40oF.

Answer:

3.38atm

Explanation:

Using data from the steam table we have that

Moles of water vapour = 907.19 / 18

= 50.4 moles

So

p1 = 30 psi = 30 x 0.68 = 2.04 atm

v1 = 4ft³= 113.2 L

Then from

PV= nRT

Then to find T we use

T1 = p1 V1 / n R

= 2.04 x 113.2 / 50.4 x 0.0821

= 55.8 K

Then to find volume two

v2 = 2v1 + v1

So

3 v1 = 339.6 K

The pressure two we use

P2 = n R T2 / V2

= 50.4 x 0.0821 x 277.6 / 339.6

So we have

= 3.38 atm =

Estimate the mass of the Great Pyramid of Giza, in tons. You make may use of the following information: the Great Pyramid is in
postnew [5]

Answer:

6005803.83105 short tons

Explanation:

The definition of density is \rho = \frac{m}{V}, and the volume of a pyramid is (confusingly written on the proposal) V=\frac{1}{3} Ah, so we can write:

m=\rho V=\rho V \frac{1}{3} Ah=\rho V \frac{1}{3} s^2h

Where s is the side of the base, being s^2 the area of that square.

We will write everything in S.I., and the best way to convert units is using conversion factors, for example, since 1m=100cm, we know that \frac{1m}{100cm}=1, and we can use this factor to convert anything written in cm to anything written in m. Example:

500cm=500cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=5m

Here we just multiplied 500cm by something that is equal to 1 (as every conversion factor must), so <em>it's not doing anything but changing the units</em>.

We can use this tool like this:

2.1\frac{g}{cm^3}=2.1\frac{g}{cm^3}(\frac{1Kg}{1000g})(\frac{100cm}{1m})^3=2100Kg/m^3

Where we have used the fact that 1^3=1 (<u>we can elevate any conversion factor to any number and they still will be 1</u>) and where we have placed strategically what is the numerator and what in the denominator so the units we don't want cancel out and the units we want appear.

Substituting then our values:

m=\rho V \frac{1}{3} s^2h=(2100Kg/m^3)\frac{1}{3} (230.34m)^2(146.7m)=5448373586.96Kg

And now we will convert to short tons using two conversion factors at the same time:

m=5448373586.96\ Kg(\frac{1\ lb}{0.45359237\ Kg})(\frac{1\ short\ ton}{2000\ lb} )=6005803.83105\ short \ tons

Remember, their value is 1, and we place the units to cancel the ones we don't want and keep the ones we want, here Kg cancel out, and lb cancel out, leaving the short tones.

A piece of driftwood moves up and down as water waves pass beneath it. However, it does not move toward the shore with the waves
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

As the waves progress through the medium, the particles they are made of move perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. The particles do not move with the wave. So waves transmit energy but not matter as they progress through a medium.

Suppose you observe two stars and you know they have the same luminosity. If one star is twice as far away as the other, the mor
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The farther star will appear 4 times fainter than the star that is near to the observer.

Explanation:

Since it is given that the luminosity of the 2 stars is same thus they radiate the same energy per unit time

Consider a spherical wave front of energy 'E' that leaves both the stars (Both radiate 'E' as they have same luminosity)

This Energy is spread over the whole surface area of sphere Thus when the wave front is at a distance 'r' the energy per unit surface area is given by

e_{1}=\frac{E}{4\pi r^{2}}

For the star that is twice away from the earth the distance is '2r' thus we will receive an energy given by

e_{2}=\frac{E}{4\pi (2r)^{2}}=\frac{E}{8\pi r^{2}}=\frac{e_{1}}{4}

Hence we sense it as 4 times fainter than the nearer star.
