Answer:C

Explanation:

Given

Overload mass =90 Pounds

and 1 Pound=0.453 kg

90 Pounds=40.823 kg

Density of Gasoline $\rho =748.9 kg/m^3$

Volume of Gasoline for this mass $V=\frac{40.823}{748.9}=0.05451 m^3$

and $1 m^3$ is equal to 264.172 Gallon

therefore 0.05451 m^3 is equal to 14.40 Gallons which is approximately equals to 15 Gallon

A rigid, insulated tank whose volume is 10 L is initially evacuated. A pinhole leak develops and air from the surroundings at 1

balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer is " $143.74^{\circ} \ C , 8.36\ g, and \ 2.77\ \frac{K}{J}$ "

Explanation:

For point a:

Energy balance equation:

$\frac{dU}{dt}= Q-Wm_ih_i-m_eh_e\\\\$

$W=0\\\\Q=0\\\\m_e=0$

From the above equation:

$\frac{dU}{dt}=0-0+m_ih_i-0\\\\\Delta U=\int^{2}_{1}m_ih_idt\\\\$

because the rate of air entering the tank that is $h_i$ constant.

$\Delta U = h_i \int^{2}_{1} m_i dt \\\\= h_i(m_2 -m_1)\\\\m_2u_2-m_1u_2=h_i(M_2-m_1)\\\\$

Since the tank was initially empty and the inlet is constant hence, $m_2u-0=h_1(m_2-0)\\\\m_2u_2=h_1m_2\\\\u_2=h_1\\\\$

Interpolate the enthalpy between $T = 300 \ K \ and\ T=295\ K$ . The surrounding air

temperature:

$T_1= 25^{\circ}\ C\ (298.15 \ K)\\\\\frac{h_{300 \ K}-h_{295\ K}}{300-295}= \frac{h_{300 \ K}-h_{1}}{300-295.15}$

Substituting the value from ideal gas:

$\frac{300.19-295.17}{300-295}=\frac{300.19-h_{i}}{300-298.15}\\\\h_i= 298.332 \ \frac{kJ}{kg}\\\\Now,\\\\h_i=u_2\\\\u_2=h_i=298.33\ \frac{kJ}{kg}$

Follow the ideal gas table.

The $u_2= 298.33\ \frac{kJ}{kg}$ and between temperature $T =410 \ K \ and\ T=240\ K.$

Interpolate

$\frac{420-410}{u_{240\ k} -u_{410\ k}}=\frac{420-T_2}{u_{420 k}-u_2}$

Substitute values from the table.

$\frac{420-410}{300.69-293.43}=\frac{420-T_2}{{u_{420 k}-u_2}}\\\\T_2=416.74\ K\\\\=143.74^{\circ} \ C\\\\$

For point b:

Consider the ideal gas equation. therefore, p is pressure, V is the volume, m is mass of gas. $\bar{R} \ is\ \frac{R}{M}$ (M is the molar mass of the gas that is $28.97 \ \frac{kg}{mol}$ and R is gas constant), and T is the temperature.

$n=\frac{pV}{TR}\\\\$

$=\frac{(1.01 \times 10^5 \ Pa) \times (10\ L) (\frac{10^{-3} \ m^3}{1\ L})}{(416.74 K) (\frac{8.314 \frac{J}{mol.k} }{2897\ \frac{kg}{mol})}}\\\\=8.36\ g\\\\$

For point c:

Entropy is given by the following formula:

$\Delta S = mC_v \In \frac{T_2}{T_1}\\\\=0.00836 \ kg \times 1.005 \times 10^{3} \In (\frac{416.74\ K}{298.15\ K})\\\\=2.77 \ \frac{J}{K}$

The density of gold is 19.3 g cm³. What is the mass of a bar of gold in Kg that measures 6 cm x 4 cmx to 2 cm ?

klemol [59]

Answer: 0.9264 kg

Explanation: [I'll use "cc" for cubic centimeter, instead of cm^3.

The volume is 6cm*4cm*2cm = 48 cm^3 (cc).

Density of Au is 19.3 g/cc

Mass of gold = (48 cc)*(9.3 g/cc) = 926.4 grams Au

1 kg = 1,000 g

(926.4 grams Au)*(1 kg/1,000 g) = 0.9264 kg, 0.93 kg to 2 sig figs

At gold's current price of $57,500/kg, this bar is worth $53,268. Keep it hidden from your lab partner (and instructor).

Vanyuwa [196]

Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick’s discovered the DNA's Double Helix.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid and it can be defined as the molecules that are found within cells, and they are saddled with the responsibility of storing genetic information in living organisms.

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick's used other scientists' work to create a model of DNA in that they used Rosalind Franklin's photo to help them determine that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was a double helix.

Furthermore, the discovery of DNA's Double Helix by Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick led to modern molecular biology, which has helped many scientists and researcher to understand how genes control the chemical processes in the body of a living organism.

erica [24]

Answer:

Fuel oil is mixed with a proper portion of compressed air

Explanation:

A gas turbine has three main part, which are

combustion chamber
air compressor
power turbine

The combustion chamber is responsible for mixing fuel with a proper portion of compressed air.

The air compressor supplies air in sufficient quantity to satisfy the requirements of the combustion chamber

The power turbine produces the power to drive the air compressor.
