Answer: b)Its ability to penetrate skin quickly due to its very small diameter

Explanation: Carbon nano tubes(CNT) are the material widely used in the medical field due to the atomic structure of it ans also have small size. Toxicity in the carbon nano tubes is because their small sized atomic particles which can enter the skin by penetration or inhalation. But are still preferred in the medicine because having unique properties like mechanical property, chemical property,surface property etc.

A cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 0.05 m3 of air at 60kPa. The linear spring holding the piston is in tension. The
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

18 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of air = 0.05 m³

Initial pressure = 60 kPa

Final volume = 0.2 m³

Final pressure = 180 kPa

Now,

the Work done by air will be calculated as:

Work Done = Average pressure × Change in volume

thus,

Average pressure = \frac{60+180}{2}  = 120 kPa

and,

Change in volume = Final volume - Initial Volume = 0.2 - 0.05 = 0.15 m³

Therefore,

the work done = 120 × 0.15 = 18 kJ

A sinusoidal wave of frequency 420 Hz has a speed of 310 m/s. (a) How far apart are two points that differ in phase by π/8 rad?
Olin [163]

Answer:

a) Two points that differ in phase by π/8 rad are 0.0461 m apart.

b) The phase difference between two displacements at a certain point at times 1.6 ms apart is 4π/3.

Explanation:

f = 420 Hz, v = 310 m/s, λ = wavelength = ?

v = fλ

λ = v/f = 310/420 = 0.738 m

T = periodic time of the wave = 1/420 = 0.00238 s = 0.0024 s = 2.4 ms

a) Two points that differ in phase by π/8 rad

In terms of the wavelength of the wave, this is equivalent to [(π/8)/2π] fraction of a wavelength,

[(π/8)/2π] = 1/16 of a wavelength = (1/16) × 0.738 = 0.0461 m

b) two displacements at times 1.6 ms apart.

In terms of periodic time, 1.6ms is (1.6/2.4) fraction of the periodic time.

1.6/2.4 = 2/3.

This means those two points are 2/3 fraction of a periodic time away from each other.

1 complete wave = 2π rad

Points 2/3 fraction of a wave from each other will have a phase difference of 2/3 × 2π = 4π/3.

Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range whilebeing stirred by a paddle wheel. During the process 30kJ of heat is
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

38 kJ

Explanation:

The solution is obtained using the energy balance:  

ΔE=E_in-E_out

U_2-U_1=Q_in+W_in-Q_out

U_2=U_1+Q_in+W_in-Q_out

      =38 kJ

A train starts from rest at station A and accelerates at 0.6 m/s^2 for 60 s. Afterwards it travels with a constant velocity for
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The distance between the station A and B will be:

x_{A-B}=55.620\: km  

Explanation:

Let's find the distance that the train traveled during 60 seconds.

x_{1}=x_{0}+v_{0}t+0.5at^{2}

We know that starts from rest (v(0)=0) and the acceleration is 0.6 m/s², so the distance will be:

x_{1}=\frac{1}{2}(0.6)(60)^{2}

x_{1}=1080\: m

Now, we need to find the distance after 25 min at a constant speed. To get it, we need to find the speed at the end of the first distance.

v_{1}=v_{0}+at

v_{1}=(0.6)(60)=36\: m/s

Then the second distance will be:

x_{2}=v_{1}*1500

x_{2}=(36)(1500)=54000\: m        

The final distance is calculated whit the decelerate value:

v_{f}^{2}=v_{1}^{2}-2ax_{3}

The final velocity is zero because it rests at station B. The initial velocity will be v(1).

0=36^{2}-2(1.2)x_{3}

x_{3}=\frac{36^{2}}{2(1.2)}  

x_{3}=540\: m

Therefore, the distance between the station A and B will be:

x_{A-B}=x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}  

x_{A-B}=1080+54000+540=55.620\: km  

I hope it helps you!
