Since it’s BELOW sea level it would be -8 or 8 units to the left of zero

Answer:

-8

Explanation:

sea level is another way of saying zero. If something is above or above sea level it is a positive integer. like a regular number. if something is below sea level it is a negative integer like negative numbers. They said 8 is the elevation but new orleans is BELOW sea level. that means the integer we are looking for is going to be a negative number. 8 is the number they told us and since it is below the sea level. The integer of new orleans that represents its elevation is -8.

Sapting Leng You have a string with a mass of 13.7 q. You stretch the string with a force of 8.39 N, giving it a length of 1.87

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

a) $\lambda=0.935\ \textup{m}$

b) $f=36.19\approx 36\ \textup{Hz}$

Explanation:

Given:

String vibrates transversely fourth dynamic, thus n = 4

mass of the string, m = 13.7 g = 13.7 × 10⁻¹³ kg

Tension in the string, T = 8.39 N

Length of the string, L = 1.87 m

a) we know

$L= n\frac{\lambda}{2}$

where,

$\lambda$ = wavelength

on substituting the values, we get

$1.87= 4\times \frac{\lambda}{2}$

or

$\lambda=0.935\ \textup{m}$

b) Speed of the wave (v) in the string is given as:

$v =f\lambda$

also,

$v=\sqrt\frac{T}{(\frac{m}{L})}$

equating both the formula for 'v' we get,

$f\lambda=\sqrt\frac{T}{(\frac{m}{L})}$

on substituting the values, we get

$f\times 0.935=\sqrt\frac{8.39}{(\frac{13.7\times 10^{3}}{1.87})}$

or

$f=\frac{33.84}{0.935}$

or

$f=36.19\approx 36\ \textup{Hz}$

A swimming pool has the shape of a right circular cylinder with radius 21 feet and height 10 feet. Suppose that the pool is full

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool is is 6061310.32 foot-pound.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 21 feet

Height = 10 feet

Weighing = 62.5 pounds/cubic

Work = 4329507.37572

Height = 2 feet

Let's look at a horizontal slice of water at a height of h from bottom of pool

We need to calculate the area of slice

Using formula of area

$A=\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$A=\pi\times21^2$

$A=441\pi\ feet^2$

Thickness of slice $t=\Delta h\ ft$

The volume is,

$V=(441\pi\times\Delta h)\ ft^3$

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

$F=W\times V$

Where, W = water weight

V = volume

Put the value into the formula

$F=62.5\times(441\pi\times\Delta h)$

$F=27562.5\pi\times\Delta h\ lbs$

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

$W=F\times d$

Put the value into the formula

$W=27562.5\pi\times\Delta h\times(10-h)\ ft\ lbs$

We do this by integrating from h = 0 to h = 10

We need to find the total work,

Using formula of work done

$W=\int_{0}^{h}{W}$

Put the value into the formula

$W=\int_{0}^{10}{27562.5\pi\\times(10-h)}dh$

$W=27562.5\pi(10h-\dfrac{h^2}{2})_{0}^{10}$

$W=27562.5\pi(10\times10-\dfrac{100}{2}-0)$

$W=4329507.37572$

To pump 2 feet above platform, then each slice has to be lifted an extra 2 feet,

So, the total distance to lift slice is (12-h) instead of of 10-h

We need to calculate the water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool

Using formula of work done

$W=\int_{0}^{h}{W}$

Put the value into the formula

$W=\int_{0}^{10}{27562.5\pi\\times(12-h)}dh$

$W=27562.5\pi(12h-\dfrac{h^2}{2})_{0}^{10}$

$W=27562.5\pi(12\times10-\dfrac{100}{2}-0)$

$W=1929375\pi$

$W=6061310.32\ foot- pound$

Hence, The water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool is is 6061310.32 foot-pound.

Answer:

PART A

In a solid

The attractive forces keep the particles together tightly enough so that the particles do not move past each other. ... In the solid the particles vibrate in place. Liquid – In a liquid, particles will flow or glide over one another, but stay toward the bottom of the container.

In a liquid

Particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles.

A gas

The particles move rapidly in all directions, frequently colliding with each other and the side of the container. With an increase in temperature, the particles gain kinetic energy and move faster.

PART B

The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert small force on the wall The pressure exerted by the gas is due to the sum of all these collision forces. The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the pressure.

What is the proper hand position when driving straight ahead

vekshin1

NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) now recommends the technique known as 9 and 3. Place your left hand on the left portion of the steering wheel in a location approximate to where the nine would be if the wheel was a clock. Your right hand should be placed on the right portion of the wheel where the three would be located.
