A teacher wants to demonstrate that unheated water can boil at room temperature in a beaker within a bell jar connected to a vac

-uum pump. However, the vacuum pump is faulty and can reduce pressures only to 15 kPa. Can the teacher use this pump to perform the demonstra-tion successfully? Explain your answer.

Answer:

No .

Explanation:

The vapor pressure of water at room temperature is .0313 atom  or 3.13 kPa.

To make a liquid boil, its vapor pressure must be  equal to pressure around it.

So pump must create pressure of 3.13 k Pa or less to make water attain its stage of boiling at room temperature. As the motor  can not produce pressure lesser than 15 k Pa , pump will not be able to make water boil at room temperature.

A 800hz tuning fork is vibrating, producing a sound wave in the air.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The frequency of the sound wave is 800Hz

The speed of sound in a is about 340m/s.

Velocity = frequency x wavelength

making wavelength the subject formula

wavelength = Velocity/frequency.

wavelength = 340/800

wavelength = 0.425m.

If y = 0.02 sin (30x – 200t) (SI units), the frequency of the wave is
leva [86]

Answer:

31.831 Hz.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • \rm y = 0.02\sin(30x-200 t).

The vertical displacement of a wave is given in generalized form as

\rm y = A\sin(kx -\omega t).

<em>where</em>,

  • A = amplitude of the displacement of the wave.
  • k = wave number of the wave = \dfrac{2\pi }{\lambda}.
  • \lambda = wavelength of the wave.
  • x = horizontal displacement of the wave.
  • \omega = angular frequency of the wave = \rm 2\pi f.
  • f = frequency of the wave.
  • t = time at which the displacement is calculated.

On comparing the generalized equation with the given equation of the displacement of the wave, we get,

\rm A=0.02.\\k=30.\\\omega =200.\\

therefore,

\rm 2\pi f=200\\\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{200}{2\pi}=31.831\ Hz.

It is the required frequency of the wave.

Where does current flows maximum in? series connection or parallel connection?
notsponge [240]
Current flow depends on other things in addition to the circuit configuration. If the SAME voltage is applied to some arrangement of the SAME components, the greatest current will occur when they are all in parallel.
