Answer:

10 atm

Explanation:

Assuming the gas is kept at constant temperature, we can apply the following law (Boyle's law):

"For a gas kept at a constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume"

Mathematically,

$pV=const.$

where p is the pressure of the gas and V its volume.

The equation can also be rewritten as

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

Where for the gas in the problem, we have:

$p_1 = 2 atm$ is the initial pressure

$V_1 = 0.5 m^3$ is the initial volume

$p_2$ is the final pressure

$V_2 = 0.1 m^3$ is the final volume

Solving for p2,

$p_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{V_2}=\frac{(2)(0.5)}{0.1}=10 atm$

A 75.0 kg person is on a Ferris Wheel that has a radius R = 16 m. The tangential velocity of the Ferris Wheel is 8.25 m/s. Calcu

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The period of rotation is

T=8.025s

Explanation:

The person is undergoing simple harmonic motion on the wheel

Given data

mass of the person =75kg

Radius of wheel r=16m

Velocity =8.25m/s

The oscillating period of simple harmonic motion is given as

T=(2*pi)/2=2*pi √r/g

Assuming that g=9.81m/s

Substituting our data into the expression we have

T=2*3.142 √ 16/9.81

T=6.284*1.277

T=8.025s

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g

mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

$n_{r}=1.572$

$n_{b}=1.587$

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}$

$\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}$

$\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

$\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0$

$\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}$

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Electric charge is distributed over the disk x2 + y2 ≤ 4 so that the charge density at (x, y) is rho(x, y) = 4x + 4y + 4x2 + 4y2

maw [93]

Answer:

Q=185.84C

Explanation:

We have to take into account the integral

$Q=\int \rho dV$

In this case we have a superficial density in coordinate system.

Hence, we have for R: x2 + y2 ≤ 4

$Q=\int_{-2}^2\int_{-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}\rho dydx$

but, for symmetry:

$Q=4\int_0^2\int_0^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}\rho dydx\\\\Q=4\int_0^2\int_0^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}(4x+4y+4x^2+4y^2) dydx\\\\Q=4\int_0^{2}[4x\sqrt{4-x^2}+2(4-x^2)+4x^2\sqrt{4-x^2}+\frac{4}{3}(4-x^2)^{3/2}]dx\\\\Q=4[46.46]=185.84C$

HOPE THIS HELPS!!
