Answer:

it would take 3.26 seg for the stone to fall to the water

Explanation:

If we ignore air friction then:

h=h₀ + v₀*t -1/2*g*t²

where

h= coordinates of the stone in the y axis ( height of the stone relative to the surface of the water )

h₀ = initial coordinates of the stone ( height of the cliff relative to the surface of the water = 52 m )

v₀ = initial <u>vertical </u>velocity = 0 ( since the ball is kicked horizontally , has only initial horizontal velocity , and has 0 vertical velocity )

t = time to reach a height h

g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

since v₀ =0

h= h₀ - 1/2*g*t²

h₀ - h =  1/2*g*t²

t= √[2(h₀ - h)/g]

when the stone hits the ground h=0 ( height=0) , then replacing values

t=√[2(h₀ - h)/g]=√[2(52 m- 0 m )/(9.8m/s²)] = 3.26 seg

t= 3.26 seg

it would take 3.26 seg for the stone to fall to the water

If the humidity in a room of volume 410 m3 at 25 ∘C is 70%, what mass of water can still evaporate from an open pan? Express you
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

m=1864.68\ g

Explanation:

Given:

volume of air in the room, V=410\ m^3

temperature of the room, T=25+273=298\ K

<u>Saturation water vapor pressure at any temperature T K is given as:</u>

<u />p_{sw}=\frac{e^{(77.3450 + 0.0057\times T - \frac{ 7235}{T}  )}}{T^{8.2}}<u />

putting T=298 K we have

p_{sw}=3130\ Pa

<u>The no. of moles of water molecules that this volume of air can hold is:</u>

Using Ideal gas law,

P.V=n.R.T

n=\frac{P_{sw}.V}{R.T}

n=\frac{3130\times 410}{8.314\times 298}

n=518\ moles is the maximum capacity of the given volume of air to hold the moisture.

Currently we have 80% of n, so the mass of 20% of n:

m=(20\%\ of\ n)\times M}

where;

M= molecular mass of water

m=0.2\times 518\times 18

m=1864.68\ g is the mass of water that can vaporize further.
