Answer:

There would be a pressure drop in the direction of the higher opening. This will force air to move in from the lower opening and force it to leave through the higher opening. This will create a convectional movement of air, cooling and ventilating the tunnel.

Explanation:

This is in accordance with bernoulli's law of fluid flow which states that the pressure exerted by a moving fluid is lesser than it would exert if it were at rest.

An object of mass m = 5.0 kg hangs from a cord around a light pulley: The length of the cord between the oscillator and the pull
puteri [66]

Answer:

\mu=0.0049Kg/m

Explanation:

When a standing wave is formed with six loops means the normal mode of the wave is n=6, the frequency of the normal mode is given by the expression:

f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}

Where L is the length of the string and v the velocity of propagation. Use this expression to find the value of v.

f_6=\frac{6v}{2L}\\(150)=\frac{6v}{2(2)} \\150=\frac{3v}{2} \\3v=150(2)\\ v=\frac{300}{3} \\v=100m/s

The velocity of propagation is given by the expression:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }

Where \mu is the desirable variable of the problem, the linear mass density, and T is the tension of the cord. The tension is equal to the weight of the mass hanging from the cord:

T=W=mg=(5)(9.81)=49.05N

With the value of the tension and the velocity you can find the mass density:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}

v^2=\frac{T}{\mu}\\ \mu=\frac{T}{v^2} =\frac{49.05}{(100)^2} =\frac{49.05}{10000} =0.0049Kg/m

Assume that at sea-level the air pressure is 1.0 atm and the air density is 1.3 kg/m3.
scoundrel [369]

Answer

Pressure, P = 1 atm

air density, ρ = 1.3 kg/m³

a) height of the atmosphere when the density is constant

   Pressure at sea level = 1 atm = 101300 Pa

   we know

   P = ρ g h

   h = \dfrac{P}{\rho\ g}

   h = \dfrac{101300}{1.3\times 9.8}

          h = 7951.33 m

height of the atmosphere will be equal to 7951.33 m

b) when air density decreased linearly to zero.

  at x = 0  air density = 0

  at x= h   ρ_l = ρ_sl

 assuming density is zero at x - distance

 \rho_x = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x

now, Pressure at depth x

dP = \rho_x g dx

dP = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x g dx

integrating both side

P = g\dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times \int_0^h x dx

P =\dfrac{\rho_{sl}\times g h}{2}

 now,

h=\dfrac{2P}{\rho_{sl}\times g}

h=\dfrac{2\times 101300}{1.3\times 9.8}

  h = 15902.67 m

height of the atmosphere is equal to 15902.67 m.
