A 2.31-kg rope is stretched between supports that are 10.4 m apart, and has a tension in it of 49.2 N. If one end of the rope is

slightly tweaked, how long will it take for the resulting disturbance to reach the other end?

Answer:

The resulting disturbance takes approximately 0.70 seconds to reach the other end.

Explanation:

The velocity of a disturbance on a rope depends on the physical properties of the material and the tension exerted to it, the equation is:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}  (1)

With v the velocity of the disturbance, T the tension of the rope and μ the linear density of the rope. The linear density of the rope is the relation between mass M and length L so we have:

\frac{M}{L} (2)

Using (2) on (1):

v=\sqrt{\frac{TL}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{49.2*10.4}{2.31}}\simeq14.9\frac{m}{s} (3)

If we assume the velocity of the disturbance is constant, it will take for the resulting disturbance to reach the other ends a time t:

t=\frac{L}{v}=\frac{10.4}{14.9}\simeq0.70\,s (4)

Fill in the blanks for the following:
storchak [24]

Answer:

<em>a. 4.21 moles</em>

<em>b. 478.6 m/s</em>

<em>c. 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>

Explanation:

Volume of container = 100.0 L

Temperature = 293 K

pressure = 1 atm = 1.01325 bar

number of moles n = ?

using the gas equation PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

R = 0.08206 L-atm-mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Therefore,

n = (1.01325 x 100)/(0.08206 x 293)

n = 101.325/24.04 = <em>4.21 moles</em>

The equation for root mean square velocity is

Vrms = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }

R = 8.314 J/mol-K

where M is the molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9 g/mol = 0.0319 kg/mol

Vrms = \sqrt{\frac{3*8.314*293}{0.0319} }= <em>478.6 m/s</em>

<em>For Nitrogen in thermal equilibrium with the oxygen, the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen will be proportional to the root mean square velocity of the oxygen by the relationship</em>

\frac{Voxy}{Vnit} = \sqrt{\frac{Mnit}{Moxy} }

where

Voxy = root mean square velocity of oxygen = 478.6 m/s

Vnit = root mean square velocity of nitrogen = ?

Moxy = Molar mass of oxygen = 31.9 g/mol

Mnit = Molar mass of nitrogen = 14.00 g/mol

\frac{478.6}{Vnit} = \sqrt{\frac{14.0}{31.9} }

\frac{478.6}{Vnit} = 0.66

Vnit = 0.66 x 478.6 = <em>315.876 m/s</em>

<em>the root mean square velocity of the oxygen gas is </em>

<em>478.6/315.876 = 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>

A cannon is fired straight up into the air. If the cannon ball comes back down to the launch point in 5 seconds, what was the ma
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

30.63 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Maximum height (h) =.?

Next, we shall determine the time taken to reach the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height =.?

T = 2t

5 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 5/2

t = 2.5 s

Thus, the time (t) taken to reach the maximum height is 2.5 s

Finally, we shall determine the maximum height reached by the ball as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 2.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =.?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 2.5²

h = 4.9 × 6.25

h = 30.625 ≈ 30.63 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the cannon ball is 30.63 m

Infer the direction of the net force acting on a car as it slows down and turns right.
Kobotan [32]
Net force would be towards the right and back (opposite direction of motion) since it's slowing down (decelerating) and turning right.

A traves de una manguera de 1 in de diámetro fluye gasolina con una velocidad media de 5ft/s ¿cuál es el gasto?
jonny [76]

Answer:

El gasto de gasto es de aproximadamente 0.0273 pies cúbicos por segundo.

Explanation:

El gasto es el flujo volumétrico de gasolina (Q), medido en pies cúbicos por segundo, que sale de la manguera. Asumiendo que la velocidad de salida es constante, tenemos que el gasto a través de la manguera es:

Q = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}\cdot v (1)

Donde:

D - Diámetro de la manguera, medido en pies.

v - Velocidad medida de salida, medida en pies por segundo.

Si sabemos que D = \frac{1}{12}\,ft y v = 5\,\frac{ft}{s }, entonces el gasto de gasolina es:

Q = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{12}\,ft \right)^{2} \cdot \left(5\,\frac{ft}{s} \right)

Q \approx 0.0273\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s}

El gasto de gasto es de aproximadamente 0.0273 pies cúbicos por segundo.
