In 1923, the United States Army (there was no U.S. Air Force at that time) set a record for in-flight refueling of airplanes. Us

ing two refueling planes, an Airco DH-4B biplane was able to remain in flight for 37 hours. During the flight, the refueling planes were able to air-transfer a total of 687 gallons of fuel to the plane in 9 refueling transfers. Assume that the refueling nozzle had a diameter of 1.45 inches and each refueling took 2.31 minutes to perform. Calculate the velocity of the fuel through the nozzle. Assume that the fuel filled the entire cross-sectional area of the nozzle..

Answer:

1.95m/s

Explanation:

Please view the attached file for the detailed solution.

The following were the conversion factors used in order to express all quatities in SI units:

$1 gallon=0.00378541m^3\\1 inch=0.0254m\\1 minute=60s$

Answer:

The range of powers is $- 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\ D$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The far point of the left eye is $n_f = 20 cm$

The near point of the left eye is $n = 15cm$

The near point with the glasses on is $n_g =25 \ cm$

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for near point the

Object distance would be $u = -25 \ cm$

Image distance would be $v = -15 \ cm$

To obtain the focal length we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u}$

substituting values

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{-15} - \frac{1}{-25}$

$f = - \frac{75}{2} cm$

converting to meters

$f = - \frac{75}{2} * \frac{1}{100}$

$f = - \frac{75}{200} \ m$

Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

$P = \frac{1}{f}$

Substituting values

$P = - \frac{200}{75} m$

$P = - 2.667 \ D$

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for far point the

Object distance would be $u_f = - \infty \ cm$

Image distance would be $v_f = -20 \ cm$

To obtain the focal length of the lens we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

$\frac{1}{f_f} = \frac{1}{v_f} - \frac{1}{u_f}$

substituting values

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{-20} - \frac{1}{- \infty}$

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{-20} - 0$

$f_f = \frac{20}{1} \ cm$

converting to meters

$f_f = - \frac{20}{1} * \frac{1}{100}$

Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

$P = \frac{1}{f_f}$

Substituting values

$P = - \frac{100}{20} m$

$P = - 5 \ D$

This implies that the range of powers of the lens in his glass is

$- 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\ D$

How do you think that changing the mass of the pendulum bob will affect the period of the pendulum swing?

myrzilka [38]

(Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.)

Answer:

Implicit memory

Explanation:

Implicit memory stores skill-related data by repeating an activity that always follows the same pattern. It includes all motor, sensory, and intellectual skills, as well as every form of conditioning. The capacity thus acquired does not depend on consciousness. We are able to perform sometimes complex tasks with our thinking turned to something completely different. This explains why Adam types so fast without even remembering the exact location of the letters on the keyboard.
