Answer:

The pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) equals 14.50 psi.

Explanation:

Since psi stands for 'pounds per square inch' and Pascals stands for 'Newtons per square meters'

We can write the given pressure as

$Pressure=100kPa\\\\Pressure=100\times 10^{3}N/m^{2}$

Now since 1 Newton of force equals 0.22481 Pound force also

since 1 meter equals 39.37 inches

Using the above values we get

$Pressure=100\times 10^{3}\times \frac{0.22481lb}{(39.37)^{2}inch^{2}}$

thus the pressure becomes

$Pressure=100\times 10^{3}\times \frac{0.22481}{(39.31)^{2}}pounds/inch^{2}\\\\Pressure=14.50psi$

The van der Waals equation is a modification of the ideal gas equation. What two factors does this equation account for? A. (1)

Liula [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The vander waals equation

$(P+n^2a/V^2)(V-nb)$ =nRT

The factor n^2a/V^2 accounts for the attractive forces between the gases molecules whereas nb accounts for the decrease in volume occupied by the gas. Therefore, correct option would be E. None of the above have BOTH of the two factors accurately stated

The viscosity of the water was 2.3×10^−5lb⋅⋅s/ft^2 and the water density was 1.94 slugs/ft^3. Estimate the drag on an 88-ft diam

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer : Drag force = 1.3 Ib

Explanation:

we have to represent the dimensions of the drag force in terms of FLT

i.e : D = f( <em>d,v,p,u </em>) represented in terms of FLT

D = F , V = LT^-1, d = L, p = FL^-4 T^2

u = FL^-2 T, Number of independent terms = 5

attached below is the detailed solution

A satellite orbits the Earth every 2 hours at an average distance from the Earth's centre of 8000km. (i) What is the average ang

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

i)ω=3600 rad/s

ii)V=7059.44 m/s

iii)F=1245.8 N

Explanation:

We know that angular speed given as

$\omega =\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}$

We know that for one revolution

θ=2π

Given that time t= 2 hr

ω=θ/t

ω=2π/2 = π rad/hr

ω=3600 rad/s

ii)

Average speed V

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}$

Where M is the mass of earth.

R is the distance

G is the constant.

Now by putting the values

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}$

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{8000\times 10^3}}$

V=7059.44 m/s

iii)

We know that centripetal fore given as

$F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}$

Here given that m= 200 kg

R= 8000 km

so now by putting the values

$F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}$

$F=\dfrac{200\times 7059.44^2}{8000\times 10^3}$

F=1245.8 N
