The main water line enters a house on the first floor. The line has a gauge pressure of 1.94 x 105 Pa. (a) A faucet on the secon

d floor, 4.90 m above the first floor, is turned off. What is the gauge pressure at this faucet? (b) How high could a faucet be before no water would flow from it, even if the faucet were open?

Answer

given,

gauge pressure =   1.94 x 10⁵ Pa

Pressure due to 4.90 m column of water

= ρ g h

= (4.90) x  (1000)  x (9.8) Pa

= 48020 Pa

Gauge pressure of second floor faucet

= 1.94 x 10⁵Pa - 48020 Pa

P_g= 145980 Pa

( b )

Let h = height of faucet from which no water can flow even if open

P = ρ g h

1.94 x 10⁵  = h x(1000) x (9.8)

h = 19.79 m

State the relation between acceleration and momentum​
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. Momentum is the mass times the velocity. So if you multiply the mass times the acceleration, you get the of change of momentum.

What is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon-carbon bonds?
iogann1982 [59]

The longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds is 344 nm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The longest wavelength of radiation can also be stated as the minimum radiation frequency required to cut carbon-carbon bond should be equal to the threshold energy of the carbon-carbon bonds.

The threshold energy will be equal to the binding energy of the carbon-carbon bonds. As it is known that carbon-carbon bonds exhibit a binding energy of 348 kJ/mole, the threshold energy to break it, is determined as followed.

First, we have to convert the energy from kJ/mol to J, i.e., energy for the carbon-carbon molecules,

\text { Energy } = \frac{348 \mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{mol}}{6.023 \times 10^{23} \text { photons }} \times 1 \text { mole } \times 1000 = 57.77 \times 10^{-20} = 5.78 \times 10^{-19} J

As,

         E=h v=\frac{h c}{\lambda}

So,

\lambda=\frac{h c}{E}=\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 * 10^{8}}{5.78 \times 10^{-19}}=3.44 \times 10^{-7}

Thus, \lambda=344 \mathrm{nm} is the longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds.

A truck covers 40.0 m in 7.10 s while uniformly slowing down to a final velocity of 2.05 m/s.
Alona [7]

Answer:

(A) Original speed= 9.22 m/s

(B) Acceleration= -1.0099 m\s^2

Explanation:

A truck covers 40m in 7.10 secs

The truck slows down at a uniform velocity of 2.05 m/s

(A) The original speed can be calculated as follows

Vo= 2(40)/7.10 - 2.05

= 80/7.10 - 2.05

= 11.2676 - 2.05

= 9.22m/s

(B) The acceleration can be calculated as follows

a= Vf-Vo/t

= 2.05-9.22/7.10

= -7.17/7.10

= -1.0099m/s^2
