Answer:
υ = 345.82 m/s
Explanation:
The formula used to find the speed of sound in air, at different temperatures is given as follows:
where,
υ = speed of sound at given temperature = ?
υ₀ = speed of sound at 0°C = 331 m/s
T = temperature in K = 15°C + 273 = 298 k
Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:
<u>υ = 345.82 m/s</u>
Answer:
2 more neutrons
Explanation:
To obtain the answer to the question, let us calculate the number of neutrons in carbon–14 and standard carbon (i.e carbon–12). This can be obtained as follow:
For carbon–14:
Mass number = 14
Proton number = 6
Neutron number =?
Mass number = Proton + Neutron
14 = 6 + Neutron
Collect like terms
14 – 6 = Neutron
8 = Neutron
Neutron number = 8
For carbon–12:
Mass number = 12
Proton number = 6
Neutron number =?
Mass number = Proton + Neutron
12 = 6 + Neutron
Collect like terms
12 – 6 = Neutron
6 = Neutron
Neutron number = 6
SUMMARY:
Neutron number of carbon–14 = 8
Neutron number of carbon–12 = 6
Finally, we shall determine the difference in the neutron number. This can be obtained as follow:
Neutron number of carbon–14 = 8
Neutron number of carbon–12 = 6
Difference =?
Difference = (Neutron number of carbon–14) – (Neutron number of carbon–12)
Difference = 8 – 6
Difference = 2
Therefore, carbon–14 has 2 more neutrons than standard carbon (i.e carbon–12)
From gas equations
PV/T = Constant
Then
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, but V1 = V2
Therefore,
P1/T1 = P2/T2
P2 = (P1T2)/T1
P1 = 40 psi
T1 = 60°F = 288.706 K
T2 = 90°F = 305.372 K
Substituting;
P2 = (40*305.372)/288.706 = 42.31 psi
Then, gauge pressure would read 42.31 psi.
