An airplane cabin is pressurized to 570 mmhg. what is the pressure inside the cabin in atmospheres?

2 answers:

8 0

1 atm corresponds to 760 mmHg, so we can set up a simple proportion to find how many atmospheres correspond to 570 mmHg:
$1 atm: 760 mmHg = x: 570 mmHg$
and from this, we find
$x= \frac{1 atm \cdot 570 mmHg}{760 mmHg} =0.75 atm$

Answer:

0.75 atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

Pressure, P = 570 mm of Hg

We know that 1 atmospheric pressure = 760 mm of Hg

So, 760 mm of Hg pressure = 1 atmospheric pressure

1 mm of Hg = 1 / 760 atm pressure

570 mm of Hg = 570 / 760 atm

= 0.75 atm

Thus, 570 mm of Hg pressure is equal to 0.75 atmospheric pressure.

Answer:

$a= -2\ m/s^2$

$a=-12.5\ m/s^2$

x=2.17 m

x=8.4 m

Explanation:

Given that

$v=A+Bt^{-1}$

$v=2+0.25t^{-1}$

To find acceleration :

we know that

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-0.5t^{-2}$

$a=-0.5t^{-2}$

Acceleration at t= 2 s

$a=-0.5\times 2^{-2}$

$a= -2\ m/s^2$

Acceleration at t= 5 s

$a=-0.5\times 5^{-2}$

$a=-12.5\ m/s^2$

We know that

$v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$dx=\left(2+\dfrac{1}{4t}\right)dt$

Position at t= 2 s:

$\int_{0}^{x}dx=\int_{1}^{2} \left(2+0.25\dfrac{1}{t}\right)dt$

$x=\left [2t+0.25\ lnt \right ]_{1}^{2}$

x=2+0.25 ln2

x=2.17 m

Position at t= 5 s:

$\int_{0}^{x}dx=\int_{1}^{5} \left(2+0.25\dfrac{1}{t}\right)dt$

$x=\left [2t+0.25\ lnt \right ]_{1}^{5}$

x=8+0.25 ln5

x=8.4 m

An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move

lions [1.4K]

This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3

An observer stands on the side of the front of a stationary train. When the train starts moving with constant acceleration, the

Zarrin [17]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion description kinematic equations. We will proceed to analyze the general case by which the analysis is taken for the second car and the tenth. So we have to:

$x = v_0 t \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Where,

x= Displacement

$v_0$ = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

t = time

Since there is no initial velocity, the same equation can be transformed in terms of length and time as:

$L = \frac{1}{2} a t_1 ^2$

For the second cart

$2L \frac{1}{2} at_2^2$

When the tenth car is aligned the length will be 9 times the initial therefore:

$9L = \frac{1}{2} at_3^2$

When the tenth car has passed the length will be 10 times the initial therefore:

$10L = \frac{1}{2}at_4^2$

The difference in time taken from the second car to pass it is 5 seconds, therefore:

$t_2-t_1 = 5s$

From the first equation replacing it in the second one we will have that the relationship of the two times is equivalent to:

$\frac{1}{2} = (\frac{t_1}{t_2})^2$

$t_1 = \frac{t_2}{\sqrt{2}}$

From the relationship when the car has passed and the time difference we will have to:

$(t_2-\frac{t_2}{\sqrt{2}}) = 5$

$t_2 (\sqrt{2}-1) = 3\sqrt{2}$

$t_2= (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2$

Replacing the value found in the equation given for the second car equation we have to:

$\frac{L}{a} = \frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2$

Finally we will have the time when the cars are aligned is

$18 \frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2 = t_3^2$

$t_3 = 36.213s$

The time when you have passed it would be:

$20\frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2 = t_4^2$

$t_4 = 38.172$

The difference between the two times would be:

$t_4-t_3 = 38.172-36.213 \approx 2s$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

A magnet falls through a loop of wire with the south pole entering first. After it has fallen all the way through the wire loop

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The induced current direction as viewed is clockwise

Explanation:

Lenz's Law states that the induced e. m. f. causes current to be driven in the loop of wire in such a way as to generate magnetic field that are oppose the magnetic flux change which is the source of the induced current

Therefore, as the magnet approaches the coil with the south pole, the coil produces current equivalent to the upward movement of the south pole of a permanent magnet through it which according to Flemings Right Hand Rule is clockwise

Therefore;

The direction of the induced current in the loop (as viewed from above, looking down the magnet) is clockwise
