Answer:

When an object moves its length contracts in the direction of motion. The faster it moves the shorter it gets in the direction of motion. The object in this question moves and then stops moving. So it's length first contracts and then expands to its original length when the motion stops. The speed doesn't have to be anywhere near the speed of light. When the object moves its length contracts no matter how fast or slow it's moving.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
Sloan [31]

Answer:

77.88 lbm/ft³

Explanation:

Given,

Specific gravity, SG = 1.25

Density of water, ρ = 62.30 lbm/ft³

density of the fluid =

   = S.G x ρ_{water}

   = 62.30 x 1.25

   = 77.88 lbm/ft³

Density of the fluid is equal to 77.88 lbm/ft³

Consider as a system the Sun with Saturn in a circular orbit around it. Find the magnitude of the change in the velocity of the
Doss [256]

Answer:

v_{su} = 19.44 m/s

Explanation:

m_{su}=5.68x10^{29}kg\\m_{sa}=5.68x10^{26}kg

T=9.29x10^8\\r_{o}=1.43x10^{12}

If the sun considered as x=0 on the axis to put the center of the mass as a:

m_{su}*r_{o}=(m_{sa}+m_{su})*r_{1}

solve to r1

r_1=\frac{m_{sa}*r_{o}}{m_{sa}+m_{su}}=\frac{5.68x10^{26}*1.43x10^{12}}{5.68x10^{26}+5.68x10^{26}}

r_1=1.428x10^9m

Now convert to coordinates centered on the center of mass.  call the new coordinates x' and y' (we won't need y').  Now since in the sun centered coordinates the angular momentum was  

L = \frac{m_{sa}*2*pi*r_1^2}{T}

where T = orbital period

then L'(x',y') = L(x) by conservation of angular momentum.  So that means

L_{sun}=\frac{m_{sa}*2*\pi *( 2r_{o}*r_1 -r_1^2)}{T}

Since

L_{su}= m_{su}*v_{su}*r_1

then

v_{su}=\frac{m_{sa}*2*pi*(2r_{o}*r_{1}-r_{1}^2)}{T*m_{sa}*r_1}

v_{su} = 19.44 m/s

Does the lattice energy of an ionic solid increase or decrease as the charges or sizes of the ions increase?
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lattice energy is the energy required to separate one mole of an ionic solid compound into its components gaseous cations and anions.

Due to increase in size of the ions, the lattice energy decreases while the lattice energy increases as the charge of the ions increases.

When the size increase, the distance between the nuclei also increase leading a decrease the force of attraction between the nuclei
