The potential difference between two points in a circuit is
sometimes called the 'voltage' because its unit of measure
is the volt.  This is a big part of the reason why a voltmeter
is the device that's used to measure it.

A 72 kg skydiver can be modeled as a rectangular "box" with dimensions 21 cm × 41 cm × 170 cm . if he falls feet first, his drag
LuckyWell [14K]

Formula for terminal velocity is:


Vt = √(2mg/ρACd) 
<span>Vt = terminal velocity = ?
<span>m = mass of the falling object = 72 kg
<span>g = gravitational acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2
<span>Cd = drag coefficient = 0.80
<span>ρ = density of the fluid/gas = 1.2 kg/m^3</span>
<span>A = projected area of the object (feet first) = 0.21 m * 0.41 m = 0.0861 m^2

Therefore:</span></span></span></span></span>

Vt =  √(2 * 72 * 9.81 / 1.2 * 0.0861 * 0.80) 

<span>Vt = 130.73 m/s</span>

A cylinder containing an ideal gas has a volume of 2.6 m3 and a pressure of 1.5 × 105 Pa at a temperature of 300 K. The cylinder
frozen [14]
<h2>Answer:13.5\times 10^{8} joules</h2>

Explanation:

From the first law of thermodynamics,

ΔQ=ΔU+W

Where Q is the heat given to the gas,

U is the internal energy of the gas,

W is the workdone by the gas.

When pressure is constant,

\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}

V_{2}=\frac{2.6\times 900}{300}=7.8m^{3}

When pressure is constant,W=PΔV

Where P is pressure and V is the volume of the gas.

Given P=1.5\times 10^{5}Pa

ΔV=7.8-2.6=5.2m^{3}

So,W=1.5\times 10^{5}\times 5.2=7.8\times 10^{5}J

Given that ΔU=6\times 10^{5}

So,ΔQ=6\times 10^{5}+7.8\times 10^{5}=13.8\times 10^{5}J

A formant is _________.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Our final answer is option (c) that is :

A resonant mode of your vocal tract.

Explanation:

Lets understand pitch of a sound first:

Pitch: Is the rate of vibrations produced and also the degree of lowness and highness of a tone.

Pitch formant:

When we take air  inside our vocal tract it oscillates at different pitches depending upon the cast and capacity of the opening of the vocal tract.

Formant comes from the vocal tract and also at a resonance of our vocal tract.

So basically the vocal tract play a vital role for the formant.

Final answer is : A formant is a resonant mode of our vocal tract.
