The storage coefficient of a confined aquifer is 6.8x10-4 determined by a pumping test. The thickness of the aquifer is 50 m and

the porosity is 25%. Determine the fractions of the storage attributable to the expansibility of water and compressibility of the aquifer skeleton in terms of percentages of the storage coefficient of the aquifer.

Answer

given,

storage coefficient, S = 6.8 x 10⁻⁴

thickness of aquifer, t = 50 m

porosity of the aquifer, n = 25 % = 0.25

Density of the water, γ = 9810 N/m³

Compressibilty  of water,β = 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰ m²/N

We know,

   S = γ t(nβ + α)

where, α is the compressibility of the aquifer

   6.8 x 10⁻⁴  =9810 x 50 x (0.25 x 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰+ α)

     α = 1.269 x 10⁻⁹ m²/N

Expansability of water

            = n t β γ

            = 0.25 x 50 x 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰ x 9810

            = 5.73 x 10⁻⁵

A 1 kg object can be accelerated at 10 m/s^2. If you apply this same force to a 4kg object, what will its acceleration be?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

a2 = 2.5~m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force F exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = m.a

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

Assume we apply some given force F to an object of m1=1 Kg that produces an acceleration a1=10 m/s^2, then:

F = m1.a1

The same force F is now applied to a second object m2=4 Kg that produces an acceleration a2, then:

F = m2.a2

Dividing both equations:

\displaystyle 1=\frac{m1.a1}{m2.a2}

Solving for a2:

\displaystyle a2=\frac{m1.a1}{m2}

Substituting values:

\displaystyle a2=\frac{1*10}{4}

a2 = 2.5~m/s^2

Atoms in a solid are not stationary, but vibrate about their equilibrium positions. Typically, the frequency of vibration is abo
hoa [83]

To develop this problem it is necessary to use the equations of description of the simple harmonic movement in which the acceleration and angular velocity are expressed as a function of the Amplitude.

Our values are given as

f = 4.11 *10^{12} Hz

A = 1.23 * 10^{-11}m

The angular velocity of a body can be described as a function of frequency as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi 4.11 *10^{12}

\omega=2.582*10^{13} rad/s

PART A) The expression for the maximum angular velocity is given by the amplitude so that

V = A\omega

V =( 1.23 * 10^{-11})(2.582*10^{13})

V =  = 317.586m/s

PART B) The maximum acceleration on your part would be given by the expression

a = A \omega^2

a =( 1.23 * 10^{-11})(2.582*10^{13})^2

a= 8.2*10^{15}m/s^2

A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope=.2\frac{kg}{m}

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as,W_{1}=Force \times displacement

=\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx ..............(1)

=.1\times 15^2

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as,W_{2}=Force \times displacement

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx.................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m=\frac{20-18}{15-0}

m=.133

Therefore,

F=.133x+2

Put value of F in equation 2

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx

W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,W=W_{1}+W_{2}

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm

Which property of gases allows them to be stored at high concentrations in a bottle of air freshener?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

the ability for gases to compress is extremely helpful it allows tanks of oxygen to hold enough air for up to two hours and the strange thing about compression is that it allows some liquids to stay liquid at their boiling point allowing liquid nitrogen to stay liquid at room temperature
