A bicycle tire has a pressure of 7.00×105 N/m2 at a temperature of 18.0ºC and contains 2.00 L of gas. What will its pressure be
stepan [7]

Answer:

p_2 = 664081 N/m^{2}

Explanation:

from the ideal gas law we have

PV = mRT

P = \rho RT

\rho = \frac{P}{RT}

HERE  R is gas constant for dry air  =  287  J K^{-1} kg^{-1}

\rho = \frac{7.00 10^{5}}{287(18+273)}

\rho = 8.38 kg/m^{3}

We know by ideal gas law

\rho = \frac{m_1}{V_1}

m_1 = \rho V_1 = 8.38 *2*10^{-3}

m_1 = 0.0167 kg

for m_2

m_2 = \rho V_i - V_removed

m_2 = 8.38*(.002 - 10^{-4})

m_2 = 0.0159 kg

WE KNOW

PV = mRT

V, R and T are constant therefore we have

P is directly proportional to mass

\frac{p_2}{p_1}=\frac{m_2}{m_1}

p_2 = p_1 * \frac{m_2}{m_1}

p_2 =7*10^{5} * \frac {.0159}{0.0167}

p_2 = 664081 N/m^{2}

One of your delivery trucks traveled 1,200 miles on 55 gallons of gas. How many miles per gallon did the truck get? (Round off y
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The word "Per" means divide

"miles per gallon" is the same as "miles / gallon"

The truck went 1,200 miles
on 55 gallons

1,200 ÷ 55 = 21.81

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 222 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. if the current in each of the t
earnstyle [38]
1) Magnitude of the force:

The magnetic field generated by a current-carrying wire is
B= \frac{\mu_0I}{2 \pi r}
where
\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance at which the field is calculated

Using I=135 A, the current flowing in each wire, we can calculate the magnetic field generated by each wire at distance 
r=40.0 cm=0.40 m, 
which is the distance at which the other wire is located:
B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}= \frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7} N/A^2)(135 A) }{2 \pi (0.40 m)}=6.75 \cdot 10^{-5} T

Then we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on each wire by this magnetic field, which is given by:
F=ILB=(135 A)(222 m)(6.75 \cdot 10^{-5}T)=2.03 N

2) direction of the force: 
The two currents run in opposite direction: this means that the force between them is repulsive. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. Let's apply it to one of the two wires, assuming they are in the horizontal plane, and assuming that the current in the wire on the right is directed northwards:
- the magnetic field produced by the wire on the left at the location of the wire on the right is directed upward (the thumb of the right hand is directed as the current, due south, and the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field, upward)

Now let's apply the right-hand rule to the wire on the right:
- index finger: current --> northward
- middle finger: magnetic field --> upward
- thumb: force --> due east --> so the force is repulsive

A similar procedure can be used on the wire on the left, finding that the force exerted on it is directed westwards, so the force between the two wires is repulsive.

The linear momentum of a truck of mass 5000 kg that is moving at a velocity of +30 m/a is ___ kg m/s
miv72 [106K]

Linear momentum of a truck is 1,50,000 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Linear momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. It is a vector quantity, which have a magnitude and a direction.

Linear momentum is a property of an object which is in motion with respect to a reference point (i.e. any object changing its position with respect to the reference point).

It's SI units are kg.m/s

Linear momentum is a vector quantity.

Linear momentum formula (p) = mass × velocity

Given data mass = 5000 kg ; velocity = 30 m/s

P = 5000 × 30

Linear momentum p= 1,50,000 kg.m/s

Why is air considered a fluid
34kurt

Answer:

A fluids is any substance that flows. Air is made of stuff, air particles, that are loosely held together in a gas form. Although liquids are the most commonly recognized fluids, gasses are also fluids. Since air is a gas, it flows and takes the form of its container.
