Answer:

If the ship speed is doubled, then the power developed is 8 times the initial value.

Explanation:

ship power is roughly proportional to the cube of the speed, so

P ∝ v³

If the speed is doubled, then the power developed becomes

P  ∝ (2)³ = 8 times

Therefore, if the ship speed is doubled, then the power developed is 8 times the initial value.

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.1 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.4 x 10-8 m.
ziro4ka [17]

a) The charge on the outer surface is 1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

b) The number of ions is 7.5\cdot 10^6

Explanation:

a)

The membrane behaves as a parallel plate capacitor, whose capacity is given by the equation

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

k = 4.3 is the dielectric constant

\epsilon_0 =8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A=5.1\cdot 10^{-9} m^2 is the surface area

d=1.4\cdot 10^{-8} m is the distance between the two plates

Substituting,

C=\frac{(4.3)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(5.1\cdot 10^{-9})}{1.4\cdot 10^{-8}}=1.4\cdot 10^{-11} F

The capacity of the membrane is related to the potential difference between the two surfaces by

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta V}

where here we have

Q = excess charge on one surface

\Delta V = 85.5 mV = 0.0855 V is the potential difference between the two surfaces

Solving for Q, we find

Q=C\Delta V=(1.4\cdot 10^{-11})(0.0855)=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

b)

We said that the net charge on the outer surface is

Q=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

The charge of one K+ ions is equal to the electron charge

+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Therefore, the number of ions on the outer surface can be found by dividing the total charge by the charge of a single ion:

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^{-12}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=7.5\cdot 10^6

What water pressure must a pump that is located on the first floor supply to have water on the thirteenth of a building with a p
irga5000 [103]

The water pressure on the first floor must be 455 PSI in order to push the water to the 13th floor at the given pressure.

The given parameters;

  • <em>Pressure on the 13 th floor, P₁ = 35 PSI</em>
  • <em>Distance between each floor, d = 10 ft</em>

The vertical pressure of the water is calculated as follows;

P = \rho gh\\\\\frac{P}{h} = \rho g\\\\\frac{P}{h} = k\\\\\frac{P_1}{h_1} = \frac{P_2}{h_2} \\\\

The vertical height of the first floor from the 13th floor = 130 ft

The vertical height of the 13 ft floor = 10  ft

P_1 = \frac{P_2 h_1}{h_2} \\\\P_1 = \frac{35 \times 130}{10} \\\\P_1 = 455 \ PSI

Thus, the water pressure on the first floor must be 455 PSI in order to push the water to the 13th floor at the given pressure.

A flexible balloon contains 0.400 molmol of an unknown polyatomic gas. Initially the balloon containing the gas has a volume of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Mass released = 8.6 g

Given data:

Initial number of moles nitrogen= 0.950 mol

Initial volume = 25.5 L

Final mass of nitrogen released  = ?

Final volume = 17.3 L

Formula:

V₁/n₁  = V₂/n₂

25.5 L / 0.950 mol = 17.3 L/n₂

n₂ =  17.3 L× 0.950 mol/25.5 L

n₂ = 16.435 L.mol /25.5 L

n₂ = 0.644 mol

Initial mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.950 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 26.6 g

Final mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.644 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 18.0 g

Mass released = initial mass - final mass

Mass released = 26.6 g - 18.0 g

Mass released = 8.6 g
