A bicycle racer inflates their tires to 7.1 atm on a warm autumn afternoon when temperatures reached 27 °C. By morning the tempe

rature has dropped to 5.0 °C. What is the pressure (in atm) in the tires if we assume that the volume of the tire does not change?

Answer:

The required pressure is 6.4866 atm.

Explanation:

The given data : -

In the afternoon.

Initial pressure of tire ( p₁ ) = 7 atm = 7 * 101.325 Kpa =  709.275 Kpa

Initial temperature ( T₁ ) = 27°C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K

In the morning .

Final temperature ( T₂ ) = 5°C = ( 5 + 273 ) K = 278 K

Given that volume remains constant.

To find final pressure ( p₂ ).

Applying the ideal gas equation.

p * v = m * R * T

\frac{p}{T}  = constant

\frac{p_{1} }{T_{1} }  = \frac{p_{2} }{T_{2} }

p_{2}  = \frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } *p_{1}  

p_{2}  = \frac{278}{300}  * 709.275  = 657.2615 Kpa = 6.486 atm

olga_2 [115]

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.

Tpy6a [65]
Hello
It is called lightning. Lightning in a storm occurs when there are two regions (it can be cloud-cloud or cloud-ground), one with a strong excess of positive charges and the other one with a strong excess of negative charges. The two types of charge attract each other, and then a sudden flow of charges from one region to the other occurs, which is called lightning.

To a good approximate, the only external force that does work on a cyclist moving on level ground is the force of air resistance
mart [117]

Answer:

a. 120 W

b. 28.8 N

Explanation:

To a good approximate, the only external force that does work on a cyclist moving on level ground is the force of air resistance. Suppose a cyclist is traveling at 15 km/h on level ground. Assume he is using 480 W of metabolic power.

a. Estimate the amount of power he uses for forward motion.

b. How much force must he exert to overcome the force of air resistance?

(a) He is 25% efficient, therefore the cyclist will be expending 25% of his power to drive the bicycle forward

Power = efficiency X metabolic power

= 0.25 X 480

= 120 W

(b)

power if force times the velocity

P = Fv

convert  15 km/h to m/s

v = 15 kmph = 4.166 m/s

F = P/v

= 120/4.166

= 28.8 N

definition of terms

power is the rate at which work is done

force is that which changes a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line

velocity is the change in displacement per unit time.

Fofino [41]
I would not agree with her since reflection and refraction happens only when waves hit an object. When, waves meet it is either it experiences constructive or destructive interference. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

R1=3 ohms
brilliants [131]

Answer: current I = 1.875A

Explanation:

If the resistors are connected in series,

Then the equivalent resistance will be

R = 6 + 18 + 15 + 9

R = 48 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

Make current I the subject of formula

I = V/R

I = 90/48

I = 1.875A

And if the resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be

1/R = 1/6 + 1/18 + 1/15 + 1/9

1/R = 0.166 + 0.055 + 0.066 + 0.111

R = 1/0.3999

R = 2.5 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

I = 90/2.5

Current I = 35.99A
