Answer:

No we cannot carry 1 cubic meter of liquid water.

Explanation:

As we know that density of water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter of water hence we infer that 1 cubic meter of water will have a weight of 1000 kilograms of 1 metric tonnes which is beyond the lifting capability of strongest man on earth let alone a normal human being who can just lift a weight of 100 kilograms thus we conclude that we cannot lift 1 cubic meter of liquid water.

A copper-nickel alloy of composition 60 wt% Ni-40 wt% Cu is slowly heated from a temperature of 1250°C (2280 °F). (a) At what te

makkiz [27]

Answer:

a. The very first liquid process, when heated from 1250 degree Celsius, is expected to form at the temperature by which the vertical line crosses the phase boundary (a -(a + L)) which is about 1310 degree Celsius. 

b. The structure of that first liquid is identified by the intersection with ((a+ L)-L) phase boundary; 47wt %of Ni is of a tie line formed across the (a+ L) phase area at 1310 degrees.

c. To find the alloy's full melting, it is determined that the intersection of the same vertical line at 60 wt percent Ni with (a -(a+L)) phase boundary is around 1350 degrees.

c. The structure of the last remaining solid before full melting correlates to the intersection with the phase boundary (a -(a + L), of the tie line built at 1350 degrees across the (a + L) phase area, being 72wt % of Ni.

A vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.2 m3 of air at 20°C. The mass of the piston is such that it maintains a c

Ann [662]

Answer:

Amount of air left in the cylinder=m $_{2}$ =0.357 Kg

The amount of heat transfer=Q=0

Explanation:

Given

Initial pressure=P1=300 KPa

Initial volume=V1=0.2 $m^{3}$

Initial temperature=T $_{1}$ =20 C

Final Volume= $V_{2}$ =0.1 $m^{3}$

Using gas equation

$m_{1}=((P_{1}*V_{1})/(R*T_{1}))$

m1==(300*0.2)/(.287*293)

m1=0.714 Kg

Similarly

m2=(P2*V2)/R*T2

m2=(300*0.1)/(0.287*293)

m2=0.357 Kg

Now calculate mass of air left,where me is the mass of air left.

me=m2-m1

me=0.715-0.357

mass of air left=me=0.357 Kg

To find heat transfer we need to apply energy balance equation.

$Q=(m_{e}*h_{e})+(m_{2}*h_{2})-(m_{1}*h_{1})$

Where me=m1-m2

And as the temperature remains constant,hence the enthalpy also remains constant.

h1=h2=he=h

Q=(me-(m1-m2))*h

me=m1-me

Thus heat transfer=Q=0

What’s the number of gold atoms in a nanogram? a picogram?

zvonat [6]

Answer :

The number of gold atoms in nanogram is, $3.057\times 10^{12}$

The number of gold atoms in picogram is, $3.057\times 10^{9}$

Explanation :

As we know that the molar mass of gold is, 196.97 g/mole. That means, 1 mole of gold has 196.97 grams of mass of gold.

As we know that,

1 mole contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms.

First we have to determine the number of gold atoms in a nanogram.

As, 196.97 grams of gold contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of gold atoms

And, 1 grams of gold contains $\frac{1g}{196.97g}\times (6.022\times 10^{23})$ number of gold atoms

So, $10^{-9}$ nanograms of gold contains $\frac{1g}{196.97g}\times (10^{-9})\times (6.022\times 10^{23})=3.057\times 10^{12}$ number of gold atoms

The number of gold atoms in nanogram is, $3.057\times 10^{12}$

Now we have to determine the number of gold atoms in a picogram.

As, 196.97 grams of gold contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of gold atoms

And, 1 grams of gold contains $\frac{1g}{196.97g}\times (6.022\times 10^{23})$ number of gold atoms

So, $10^{-12}$ picograms of gold contains $\frac{1g}{196.97g}\times (10^{-12})\times (6.022\times 10^{23})=3.057\times 10^{9}$ number of gold atoms

The number of gold atoms in picogram is, $3.057\times 10^{9}$

With a very precise volumetric measuring device, the volume of a liquid sample is determined to be 6.321 L (liters). Three stude

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Solution:-

- Three students measure the volume of a liquid sample which is 6.321 L.

- Each student measured the liquid sample 4 times. The data is provided for each measurement taken by each student as follows:

Students

Trial A B C

1 6.35 6.31 6.38

2 6.32 6.31 6.32

3 6.33 6.32 6.36

4 6.36 6.35 6.36

- We will define the two terms stated in the question " precision " and "accuracy"

- Precision refers to how close the values are to the sample mean. The dense cluster of data is termed to be more precise. We will use the knowledge of statistics and determine the sample standard deviation for each student.

- The mean measurement taken by each student would be as follows:

$E ( A ) = \frac{6.35 +6.32+6.33+6.36}{4} \\\\E ( A ) = 6.34\\\\E ( B ) = \frac{6.31 +6.31+6.32+6.35}{4} \\\\E ( B ) = 6.3225\\\\E ( C ) = \frac{6.38 +6.32+6.36+6.36}{4} \\\\E ( C ) = 6.355\\$

- The precision can be quantize in terms of variance or standard deviation of data. Therefore, we will calculate the variance of each data:

$Var ( A ) = \frac{6.35^2+6.32^2+6.33^2+6.36^2}{4} - 6.34^2\\\\Var ( A ) = 0.00025\\\\Var ( B ) = \frac{6.31^2+6.31^2+6.32^2+6.35^2}{4} - 6.3225^2\\\\Var ( B ) = 0.00026875\\\\Var ( C ) = \frac{6.38^2+6.32^2+6.36^2+6.36^2}{4} - 6.355^2\\\\Var ( C ) = 0.000475\\$

- We will rank each student sample data in term sof precision by using the values of variance. The smallest spread or variance corresponds to highest precision. So we have:

Var ( A ) < Var ( B ) < Var ( C )

most precise Least precise

- Accuracy refers to how close the sample mean is to the actual data value. Where the actual volume of the liquid specimen was given to be 6.321 L. We will evaluate the percentage difference of sample values obtained by each student .

$P ( A ) = \frac{6.34-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.30058\\\\P ( B ) = \frac{6.3225-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.02373\\\\P ( C ) = \frac{6.355-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.53788\\$

- Now we will rank the sample means values obtained by each student relative to the actual value of the volume of liquid specimen with the help of percentage difference calculated above. The least percentage difference corresponds to the highest accuracy as follows:

P ( B ) < P ( A ) < P ( C )

most accurate least accurate

The gradual and uniform cooling of glass that has been heated in order to relieve random internal stresses is... Group of answer

kirill115 [55]

Answer: Annealing

Explanation:

In the manufacturing of glass, Processes such as expansion when glass heats and cooling when it contracts are involved. These build up random internal stresses which can cause cracks and breakage when finally cooled at room temperature. To relieve these stresses, Annealing is carried out on glass during the manufacturing process.

Annealing is the process whereby the temperature during the process of the manufacturing of glass is reduced and maintained at a uniform rate so that it undergoes a gradual cooling process. so as to make the glass tough and reduce internal stress.
