Answer:

The value is $S_g_2 = 3.128$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The specific gravity of the first fluid is $S_g_1 = 14.5$

The pressure of air is $P_a = 81kPa = 81*10^{3} \ Pa$

The atmospheric pressure is $P_A = 100 kPa = 100 *10^{3} Pa$

Generally the specific gravity of the second fluid is mathematically represented as

$S_g_2 = S_g_1 * \frac{h_1}{ h_2 } + \frac{P_a - P_A}{\rho_w * g * h_2 }$

Here $\rho_w$ is the density of water with value $\rho_w = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

=> $S_g_2 = [14.5 * \frac{0.22}{0.4} ] + [\frac{81*10^{3}-100*10^{3}}{ 1000 * 9.8 * 0.4} ]$

=> $S_g_2 = 3.128$

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

$f=3\times 10^8\times 64.90=19.4\times 10^9 s^{-1}$

$f=3\times 10^8\times39.9537=119.8613\times 10^8\ /sec$

Explanation:

for the transition from 148th orbit to 138th orbit

we know the formula

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=R\times \left ( \frac{1}{n^2_{final}}-\frac{1}{n^2_{initial}} \right )$

where R is Rydberg constant whose value is $1.0974\times 10^7 /m$

putting this value in equation

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=1.0974\times 10^7 \left ( \frac{1}{139^2}-\frac{1}{148^2} \right )$

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=64.9075$

$f=c\lambda$

$f=3\times 10^8\times 64.90=19.4\times 10^9 s^{-1}$

for the transition from 165th to 174th orbit

we know the formula

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=R\times \left ( \frac{1}{n^2_{final}}-\frac{1}{n^2_{initial}} \right )$

where R is Rydberg constant whose value is $1.0974\times 10^7 /m$

putting this value in equation

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=1.0974\times 10^7 \left ( \frac{1}{165^2}-\frac{1}{174^2} \right )$

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=39.95377$

$f=c\lambda$

$f=3\times 10^8\times39.9537=119.8613\times 10^8\ /sec$

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

1.53 s

Explanation:

Initially vertical component of velocity of the ball, uy = 7.5 m/s

Net displacement is vertical direction is zero, Δy =0

Use second equation of motion:

Δy = uy t + 0.5 a t²

Here, acceleration a = -g (g =9.8 m/s²)

Substitute all the values and solve for g

0 = 7.5 t -0.5 (9.8)t²

7.5 t = 4.9 t²

t = 1.53 s

A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 425 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed

Alja [10]

Answer:

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is, ∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

Explanation:

We can represent east direction by i and north direction by j.

The jet has a relative speed of 425 mi/h relative to the air.

The wind is blowing due north with a speed of 35 mi/h = 35 j

425 mi/h is the relative speed with respect to wind that is

Velocity of jet wrt wind= $V_{jw}$ = $V_{j}-V_{w}$

425 i = $V_{j}$ - 35 j

$V_{j}$ = 425 i + 35 j

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is,

∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

The diagram shows the movement of air as a result of convection currents. At which point is the air at its highest density?

stellarik [79]

When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object. The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal. We say that heat flows from the hotter to the cooler object. Heat is energy on the move.

Units of heat are units of energy. The SI unit of energy is Joule. Other often encountered units of energy are 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J, 1 cal = 4.186 J, 1 Btu = 1054 J.

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object. Two objects of different temperature always interact. There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another. They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.
