Given the following choices, determine which best suits as a characteristic of a hurricane.
Answer Choices:
A. Hurricanes occur mostly inland
B. Hurricanes create widespread damage
C. Hurricanes can only last for a short amount of time
D. Hurricanes gain strength after passing overland
Best Answer: B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage.
Reason: A would not be correct since it is more of a variable, due to the fact that hurricanes usually begin near the coastlines, hurricanes are in fact capable of moving inland for atleast 100 miles before it dies down to a tropical storm or depression.
C is not correct since hurricanes can last up to a whole week which is approximately 168 hours.
D is not correct since it is another variable in which hurricanes can decrease in strength if it comes into contact with cool and dry air which is the opposite of warm and moist which it needs in order to occur.
Therefore, the best choice is B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage, hurricanes can unleash a staggering arsenal of mother nature's strength and the most damage a hurricane has caused can go up to 125 billion USD in damages.
The answer is A. you sre correct!
– liquids, solids or gases – are made up of atoms and molecules that are in constant motion.<span> The theory also states that collisions between atoms and molecules are elastic</span>
<span>You can answer this question by getting the atomic number and atomic mass of Oxygen from a periodic table. There you will find that the atomic number is 8, that means, by definition, that it has 8 protons. This is, because atomic number is defined as the number of protons of an element. Given that the atom is neutral, that implies that the atoms have the same number of electrons than protons. So you already know that the oxygen atoms has 8 protons and 8 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, which is what defines the isotopes. Given that the atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999, that means that most atoms of oxygen has 8 neutrons (8 protons +8 neutrons = 16 atomic mass). But you can not be sure that a specific atom of oxygen has 8 neutrons, nevertheless, given that the other options are discarded (because they do not have 8 protons and 8 electrons), the only correct answer is the option A. 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons.</span>
Answer:
There are 3 steps of this problem.
Explanation:
Step 1.
Wet steam at 1100 kPa expands at constant enthalpy to 101.33 kPa, where its temperature is 105°C.
Step 2.
Enthalpy of saturated liquid Haq = 781.124 J/g
Enthalpy of saturated vapour Hvap = 2779.7 J/g
Enthalpy of steam at 101.33 kPa and 105°C is H2= 2686.1 J/g
Step 3.
In constant enthalpy process, H1=H2 which means inlet enthalpy is equal to outlet enthalpy
So, H1=H2
H2= (1-x)Haq+XHvap.........1
Putting the values in 1
2686.1(J/g) = {(1-x)x 781.124(J/g)} + {X x 2779.7 (J/g)}
= 781.124 (J/g) - x781.124 (J/g) = x2779.7 (J/g)
1904.976 (J/g) = x1998.576 (J/g)
x = 1904.976 (J/g)/1998.576 (J/g)
x = 0.953
So, the quality of the wet steam is 0.953
