Answer:

The Reynolds number is 5600.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 1400 kg/m³

Viscosity = 0.5 Pa's

Length = 2 m

Speed = 1 m/s

We need to calculate the Reynolds number

Using formula of Reynolds number

R_{e}=\dfrac{\rho V\times L}{\mu}

Where, \rho = density of fluid

v = speed of syrup

l = length of a person

\mu=Viscosity

Put the all value into the formula

R_{e}=\dfrac{1400\times1\times2}{0.5}

R_{e}=5600

Hence, The Reynolds number is 5600.

Ultraviolet light from a distant star is traveling at 3.0 × 108 m/s. how long will it take for the light to reach earth if it mu
castortr0y [4]

Given speed and the distance that must be covered, the time it will take the ultraviolet light to reach the earth is 3.7 × 10⁴ hours.

<h3>What is Speed?</h3>

Speed is simply referred to as distance traveled per unit time.

Mathematically, Speed = Distance ÷ time.

Given the data in the question;

  • Speed of the Ultraviolet light c = 3.0 × 10⁸m/s = 1.08 × 10⁹km/h
  • Distance it must cover d = 4.0 × 10¹³km
  • Time elapsed t = ?

We substitute our given values into the expression above.

Speed = Distance ÷ time

1.08 × 10⁹km/h = 4.0 × 10¹³km ÷ t

t = 4.0 × 10¹³km ÷ 1.08 × 10⁹km/h

t = 3.7 × 10⁴ hrs

Therefore, given speed and the distance that must be covered, the time it will take the ultraviolet light to reach the earth is 3.7 × 10⁴ hours.

The Assignment: A fixed quantity of an ideal gas (R 0.28 kJ/kgK; Cv-0.71kJ/kgK) is expanded from an initial condition of 35 bar,
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Index of expansion: 4.93

Δu = -340.8 kJ/kg

q = 232.2 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The index of expansion is the relationship of pressures:

pi/pf

The ideal gas equation:

p1*v1/T1 = p2*v2/T2

p2 = p1*v1*T2/(T2*v2)

500 C = 773 K

20 C = 293 K

p2 = 35*0.1*773/(293*1.3) = 7.1 bar

The index of expansion then is 35/7.1 = 4.93

The variation of specific internal energy is:

Δu = Cv * Δt

Δu = 0.71 * (20 - 500) = -340.8 kJ/kg

The first law of thermodynamics

q = l + Δu

The work will be the expansion work

l = p2*v2 - p1*v1

35 bar = 3500000 Pa

7.1 bar = 710000 Pa

q = p2*v2 - p1*v1 + Δu

q = 710000*1.3 - 3500000*0.1 - 340800 = 232200 J/kg = 232.2 kJ/kg

vredina [299]

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s  is \omega = 1466.67s^{-1}.

Explanation:

The equation

I\alpha  = Fd

relates the moment of inertia I of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration \alpha, with the force applied F at a distance d from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is F = 22N, at a distance d = 6cm =0.06m, to a ring with the moment of inertia of I =mr^2; therefore, the angular acceleration is

$\alpha =\frac{Fd}{I} $

$\alpha =\frac{22N*0.06m}{(1.5kg)*(0.06)^2} $

\alpha  = 244.44\: s^{-2}

Therefore, the angular speed \omega which is

\omega  = \alpha t

after 6 seconds is

\omega = 244.44$\: s^{-2}* 6s

\boxed{\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}}
