Answer:

a) dh_HG = 6.72 mm

b) dz' = 173 m @8000 m

Explanation:

Given:

Original height h_o = 3000 m

Descent = 100 m

Find:

what is the pressure change that your ears "pop" at, in millimeters of mercury?

If the airplane now rises to  8000 m and again begins descending, how far will the airplane descend before your ears "pop" again?

Solution:

- Assuming density of air remains constant from 3000 m to 2900 m. From Table A3:

                 p_air = 0.7423*p_SL = 0.7423*1.225 kg/m^3

                 p_air = 0.909 kg/m^3

- Manometer equation for air and mercury are as follows:

                dP = -p_air*g*descent                        dP = -p_HG*g*dh_HG

Combine the pressures dP:

               dh_HG = (p_air / p_HG)*descent

               dh_HG = 0.909*100 / 13.55*999

              dh_HG = 6.72 mm

- Assuming density of air remains constant from 8000 m to 7900 m. From Table A3:

                   p_air = 0.4292*p_SL = 0.4292*1.225 kg/m^3

                   p_air = 0.526 kg/m^3

- Manometer equation for air are as follows:

                       @8000m                                 @3000m

                dP = -p'_air*g*dz'                       dP = -p_air*g*dz

                                           

                                     dz' = p_air / p'_air * dz

                                     dz' = 0.909 / 0.526 * 100

                                     dz' = 173 m

Technician A says test lights are great for performing simple tests. Technician B says you can use a test light to check SRS cir
adoni [48]

The technician that is correct about either testing lights for simple tests or to check SRS Circuits is; Technician A.

<h3>Which Technician is Correct?</h3>

First of all it is pertinent to note that test lights are generally small bulbs that are turned on by the voltage and current flowing through the circuit in analog circuits.

Now, the  two values ​​of voltage and current are high and sufficient to light up the bulb. However, in digital circuits, the current is very small in the order of milliamps, and as a result there is not enough power to turn on the lights.

Thus, we can conclude that Technician A is correct.

What is thermodynamics system? Briefly explain (i) control mass system (ii) control volume system. Comment briefly on control ma
olga2289 [7]

Explanation:

Thermodynamics system :

 Thermodynamics system is a region or space in which study of matters can be done.The system is separated from surroundings by a boundary this boundary maybe flexible or fixed it depends on situations.The out side the system is called surroundings.

Generally thermodynamics systems are of three types

1.Closed system(control mass system)

  Only energy transfer take place ,no mass transfer take place.

2.Open system(control volume system)

 Both mass as well as energy transfer take place.

3.Isolated system

   Neither mass or nor energy transfer take place.

At steady state ,property is did not changes with respect to time.
