Answer:

b is the correct option.

Explanation:

Steam distillation is a distillation in which water is added to the mixture being distilled so that water and the organic compounds vaporize, condense and are collected together. This process is applied for the purification of those materials specially the organic materials which are temperature sensitive. The normal boiling method can not be implemented as these materials starts to decompose on high temperatures. This method has got a lot of applications in industries like petrolium refineries and the oil extraction from some plants etc.

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is $a=2,800m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Known Data

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, $v_{i}=-30m/s$ , final speed has a positive direction, $v_{f}=26m/s$ , $\Delta t=20ms=0.020s$ and mass $m_{b}$ .

Initial momentum

$p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s$

final momentum

$p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s$

Impulse

$I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s$

Average Force

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}$

Average acceleration

$F=ma$ , so $a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}$ .

Therefore, $a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}$

A meteorologist plans to release a weather balloon from ground level, to be used for high-altitude atmospheric measurements. The

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

563.86 N

Explanation:

We know the buoyant force F = weight of air displaced by the balloon.

F = ρgV where ρ = density of air = 1.29 kg/m³, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and V = volume of balloon = 4πr/3 (since it is a sphere) where r = radius of balloon = 2.20 m

So, F = ρgV = ρg4πr³/3

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

F = 1.29 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 4π × (2.20 m)³/3

= 1691.58 N/3

= 563.86 N

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero

Neporo4naja [7]

If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

A. 0.199 J

B. 0.0663 C

C = 0.0221 F

D. 12.68 ohms

Explanation:

From the question:

time duration, t = 0.28 seconds

Average power, P = 0.71 W

Average voltage, V = 3 V

A) Energy is given as:

E = P * t

=> E = 0.71 * 0.28 = 0.199 J

B) Electrical energy is also given as:

E = qV

where q = charge

=> q = E / V

∴ q = 0.199 / 3 = 0.0663 C

C) Capacitance is given as charge over voltage:

C = q / V

=> C = 0.0663 / 3 = 0.0221 F

D) Electrical power, P, can also be given as:

P = $V^2 / R$

where R = resistance

=> R = $V^2 / P$

R = $3^2 / 0.71 = 9 / 0.71 = 12.68 ohms$
