Trava [24]3 years ago
6 0

The answer is:


1. Cure disease

2. Improve livelihoods

3. Understand nature and themselves.


1. Disease has plagued humans since the first man. Therefore, man has always used science to seek a cure for any emerging disease such as cancer today

2. Humans use science to improve livelihoods such as means of faster traveling and increasing yields in the fields

3. Science has been used to understand humans and the environment in which they live. This is evident with the numerous scientific probes that explore the earth and space collecting and analyzing data.

Two containers (A and B) are in thermal contact with an environment at temperature T = 280 K. The two containers are connected b
zmey [24]

Answer:

The maximum amount of work is  W = 1563.289 \ J

Explanation:

From  the question we are told that

   The temperature of the environment is  T = 280\ K

    The volume of container A is  V_A = 2 m^3

    Initially the number of moles  is  n = 1.2 \ moles

     The volume of container B is V_B = 3.5 \ m^3

     

At equilibrium of the gas the maximum work that can be done on the turbine is mathematically represented as

             W =  P_A V_A  ln[ \frac{V_B}{V_A} ]

Now from the Ideal gas law

          P_A V_A =  nRT

So substituting for P_A V_A in the equation above

          W =  nRT ln [\frac{V_B}{V_A} ]

Where R is the gas constant with a values of  R =  8.314 \  J/mol

Substituting values we have that

            W = 1.2 * (8.314) * (280) * ln [\frac{3.5}{2} ]

          W = 1563.289 \ J

A semicircular plate with radius 6 m is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 2 m above the surface. Express the hydr
dalvyx [7]

Answer: 313920

Explanation:First, we’re going to assume that the top of the circular plate surface is 2 meters under the water. Next, we will set up the axis system so that the origin of the axis system is at the center of the plate.

Finally, we will again split up the plate into n horizontal strips each of width Δy and we’ll choose a point y∗ from each strip. Attached to this is a sketch of the set up.

The water’s surface is shown at the top of the sketch. Below the water’s surface is the circular plate and a standard xy-axis system is superimposed on the circle with the center of the circle at the origin of the axis system. It is shown that the distance from the water’s surface and the top of the plate is 6 meters and the distance from the water’s surface to the x-axis (and hence the center of the plate) is 8 meters.

The depth below the water surface of each strip is,

di = 8 − yi

and that in turn gives us the pressure on the strip,

Pi =ρgdi = 9810 (8−yi)

The area of each strip is,

Ai = 2√4− (yi) 2Δy

The hydrostatic force on each strip is,

Fi = Pi Ai=9810 (8−yi) (2) √4−(yi)² Δy

The total force on the plate is found on the attached image.
