The weight of the specimen in SSD condition is 373.3 cc

<u>Explanation</u>:

a) Apparent specific gravity = \frac{A}{A-C}

Where,

A = mass of oven dried test sample in air = 1034 g

B = saturated surface test sample in air = 1048.9 g

C = apparent mass of saturated test sample in water = 975.6 g

apparent specific gravity = \frac{A}{A-C}

                                         = \frac{1034}{1034-675 \cdot 6}

Apparent specific gravity = 2.88

b) Bulk specific gravity G_{B}^{O D}=\frac{A}{B-C}

G_{B}^{O D}=\frac{1034}{1048.9-675 \cdot 6}

       =  2.76

c) Bulk specific gravity (SSD):

G_{B}^{S S D}=\frac{B}{B-C}

=\frac{1048 \cdot 9}{1048 \cdot 9-675 \cdot 6}

G_{B}^{S S D} = 2.80

d) Absorption% :

=\frac{B-A}{A} \times 100 \%

=\frac{1048 \cdot 9-1034}{1034} \times 100

Absorption = 1.44 %

e) Bulk Volume :

v_{b}=\frac{\text { weight of dispaced water }}{P \omega t}

=\frac{1048 \cdot 9-675 \cdot 6}{1}

= 373.3 cc

A charge of +2.00 μC is at the origin and a charge of –3.00 μC is on the y axis at y = 40.0 cm . (a) What is the potential at po
Nimfa-mama [501]

a) Potential in A: -2700 V

b) Potential difference: -26,800 V

c) Work: 4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J

Explanation:

a)

The electric potential at a distance r from a single-point charge is given by:

V(r)=\frac{kq}{r}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have a system of two charges, so the total potential at a certain point will be given by the algebraic sum of the two potentials.

Charge 1 is

q_1=+2.00\mu C=+2.00\cdot 10^{-6}C

and is located at the origin (x=0, y=0)

Charge 2 is

q_2=-3.00 \mu C=-3.00\cdot 10^{-6}C

and is located at (x=0, y = 0.40 m)

Point A is located at (x = 0.40 m, y = 0)

The distance of point A from charge 1 is

r_{1A}=0.40 m

So the potential due to charge 2 is

V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.40}=+4.50\cdot 10^4 V

The distance of point A from charge 2 is

r_{2A}=\sqrt{0.40^2+0.40^2}=0.566 m

So the potential due to charge 1 is

V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.566}=-4.77\cdot 10^4 V

Therefore, the net potential at point A is

V_A=V_1+V_2=+4.50\cdot 10^4 - 4.77\cdot 10^4=-2700 V

b)

Here we have to calculate the net potential at point B, located at

(x = 0.40 m, y = 0.30 m)

The distance of charge 1 from point B is

r_{1B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.30)^2}=0.50 m

So the potential due to charge 1 at point B is

V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.50}=+3.60\cdot 10^4 V

The distance of charge 2 from point B is

r_{2B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.40-0.30)^2}=0.412 m

So the potential due to charge 2 at point B is

V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.412}=-6.55\cdot 10^4 V

Therefore, the net potential at point B is

V_B=V_1+V_2=+3.60\cdot 10^4 -6.55\cdot 10^4 = -29,500 V

So the potential difference is

V_B-V_A=-29,500 V-(-2700 V)=-26,800 V

c)

The work required to move a charged particle across a potential difference is equal to its change of electric potential energy, and it is given by

W=q\Delta V

where

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference

In this problem, we have:

q=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the charge of the electron

\Delta V=-26,800 V is the potential difference

Therefore, the work required on the electron is

W=(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-26,800)=4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J

What are the factors of production in business? Land, labor, and capital land, capital, and interest land, labor, and customer b
kozerog [31]

Answer:

  • <em><u> Land, labor, and capital </u></em>

Explanation:

The <em>factors of production </em>are the resources that are used to produce goods and services.

By definition resources are scarce.

<em>Land</em> includes everything that comes from the land, that can be used as raw material to produce other materials; for instance, water, minerals, wood.

<em>Labor</em>  is the work done by anybody, not just at a factory but at any enterpise that produce a good or a service. For instance, the work done by a person in a bank or a restaurant.

<em>Capital</em> is the facilites (buildings), machinery, equipments, tools that the persons use to produce goods or services. For instance, a computer, a chemical reactor, or a pencil.

Nowadays, also entrepreneurship is included as a <em>factor of production</em>, since it is the innovative skill of the entrepeneurs to combine land, labor and capital what permit the production of good and services.

telo118 [61]

Answer: the half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone = 30⁰

Explanation:

To calculate the  half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone.

we say ;

Sin∝ = 1 / Ma

given that Ma = 2

now we substitute

Sin∝ = 1 / 2

Sin∝ = 0.5

∝ = Sin⁻¹ 0.5

∝ = 30⁰

Therefore, the half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone is 30⁰
