A cylinder of compressed gas has a pressure of 488.2 kPa. The next day the cylinder of gas has a

Luda [366]

Answer:

20 °C

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Rearranging:

P / T = nR / V

Since n, R, and V are constant:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

488.2 kPa / T = 468 kPa / 281.15 K

T = 293.29 K

T = 20.1 °C

Rounded, the temperature was 20 °C.

Consider a situation of simple harmonic motion in which the distance between the endpoints is 2.39 m and exactly 8 cycles are co

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

1.195 m

2.8375 s

2.21433 rad/s

Explanation:

d = Distance = 2.39 m

N = Number of cycles = 8

t = Time to complete 8 cycles = 22.7 s

Radius would be equal to the distance divided by 2

$r=\frac{d}{2}\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{2.39}{2}\\\Rightarrow r=1.195\ m$

The radius is 1.195 m

Time period would be given by

$T=\frac{t}{N}\\\Rightarrow T=\frac{22.7}{8}\\\Rightarrow T=2.8375\ s$

Time period of the motion is 2.8375 s

Angular speed is given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{2\pi}{2.8375}\\\Rightarrow \omega=2.21433\ rad/s$

The angular speed of the motion is 2.21433 rad/s

The weight of a body of certain mass becomes zero in space.why?write with reasons

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Weight is what you get when a certain amount of gravity is acting on that mass, and something, like the surface of a planet, is resisting that action. In space, when falling freely, there's nothing resisting the pull of gravity so weight disappears. Mass however stays.

A student pushes on a crate with a force of 100 Newtons directed to the right.

romanna [79]

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Therefore 100N of force is exerted by the crate on student as a reaction to his action

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.

kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy $w = mg$ [m is the mass of the body]

we have m = 50 kg.

Hence w = 50 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

=490 N kg m/s^2

= 490 N

Here newton [N] is the unit of force.
