Answer:

W = 650 [kJ]

Explanation:

The definition of work is denoted by the product of force by the distance traveled by the body, this distance traveled corresponds to the direction of the force.

In this case we have:

d = distance = 2.6[km] = 2600 [m]

F = force = 250 [N]

W = F*d = 250 * 2600 = 650000 [J] or 650 [kJ]

A beam of light has a wavelength of 650 nm in vacuum. (a) What is the speed of this light in a liquid whose index of refraction

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 650 nm

Index refraction = 1.47

(a). We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

$n = \dfrac{c}{v}$

Where, n = refraction index

c = speed of light in vacuum

v = speed of light in medium

Put the value into the formula

$1.47=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{v}$

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.47}$

$v= 2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{n}$

Where, $\lambda_{0}$ = wavelength in vacuum

$\lambda$ = wavelength in medium

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}}{1.47}$

$\lambda=442\times10^{-9}\ m$

Hence, The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

12345 [234]

Answer:0.0704 kg

Explanation:

Given

initial Absolute pressure $(P_1)$ =210+101.325=311.325

$T_1=25^{\circ}\approx 298 K$

$V=0.025 m^3$

$T_2=50^{\circ}\approx 323 K$

as the volume remains constant therefore

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{311.325}{298}=\frac{P_2}{323}$

$P_2=337.44 KPa$

therefore Gauge pressure is 337.44-101.325=236.117 KPa

Initial mass $m_1=\frac{P_1V}{RT_1}=\frac{311.325\times 0.025}{0.0287\times 298}$

$m_1=0.91 kg$

Final mass $m_2=\frac{P_2V}{RT_2}=\frac{311.325\times 0.025}{0.0287\times 323}$

$m_2=0.839$

Therefore $m_1-m_2$ =0.91-0.839=0.0704 kg of air needs to be removed to get initial pressure back
