I believe it is the word is equilibrium because your body must kick on other systems if one is falling behind. Ex. You are cold so you shiver to keep warm.

Water evaporating from a pond does so as if it were diffusing across an air film 0.15 cm thick. The diffusion coefficient of wat
QveST [7]

Answer:

The water level will drop by about 1.24 cm in 1 day.

Explanation:

Here Mass flux of water vapour is given as

                               j_{H_2O}=\frac{D}{l} \bigtriangleup c

where

  • j_{H_2O} is the mass flux of the water which is to be calculated.
  • D is diffusion coefficient which is given as 0.25 cm^2/s
  • l is the thickness of the film which is 0.15 cm thick.
  • \bigtriangleup c is given as

                                \bigtriangleup c= \frac{P_{sat}-P_a}{RT}

In this

  • P_{sat} is the saturated water pressure, which is look up from the saturated water property at 20°C and 0.5 saturation given as 2.34 Pa
  • P_a is the air pressure which is given as 0.5 times of P_{sat}
  • R is the universal gas constant as 8.314 kJ/kmol-K
  • T is the temperature in Kelvin scale which is 20+273= 293K

By substituting values in the equation

                                    \bigtriangleup c= \frac{P_{sat}-P_a}{RT} \\ \bigtriangleup c= \frac{P_{sat}-0.5P_{sat}}{RT} \\ \bigtriangleup c= \frac{0.5P_{sat}}{RT} \\ \bigtriangleup c= \frac{0.5 \times 2.34}{8.314 \times 293} \\\bigtriangleup c= 0.48 mol/m^3

Converting \bigtriangleup c into cm^3/cm^3

As 1 mole of water 18 cm^3 so

                               \bigtriangleup c= 0.48 mol/m^3 \\ \bigtriangleup c= 0.48 \times 18 \times 10^{-6}  cm^3/cm^3 \\ \bigtriangleup c= 8.64 \times 10^{-6}  cm^3/cm^3

Putting this in the equation of mass flux equation gives

                            j_{H_2O}=\frac{D}{l} \bigtriangleup c \\ j_{H_2O}=\frac{0.25}{0.15} \times 8.64 \times 10^{-6} \\ j_{H_2O}=14.4 \times 10^{-6}  cm/s

For calculation of water level drop in a day, converting mass flux as

                     j_{H_2O}=14.4 \times 10^{-6}  \times 24 \times 3600  cm/day\\ j_{H_2O}=1.24  cm/day

So the water level will drop by about 1.24 cm in 1 day.

The height of a cone is increasing at a rate of 10 cm/sec and its radius is decreasing so that its volume remains constant. How
ki77a [65]

Answer:

dr/dt = -2 cm/s.

Explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by:

V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h (1)

  • r is the radius
  • h is the height

Let's take the derivative with respect to time in each side of (1).

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3} \pi \frac{d}{dt}(r^{2}h)=\frac{1}{3} \pi \left(2r\frac{dr}{dt}h+r^{2}\frac{dh}{dt} \right) (2)

We know that:

  • dh/dt = 10 cm / s (rate increasing of height)
  • dV/dt = 0 (constant volume means no variation with respect of time)
  • r = 4 cm
  • h = 10 cm

We can calculate how fast is the radius changing using the above information.

0=\frac{1}{3} \pi \left( 2\cdot 4\cdot \frac{dr}{dt} \cdot 10 + 4^{2}\cdot 10)\right  

Therefore dr/dt will be:

\frac{dr}{dt}=-\frac{160}{80}=-2 cm/s

The minus signs means that r is decreasing.

I hope it helps you!

How are velocity and acceleration related
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.  If an object is changing its velocity, its speed, or changing its direction, then it is said to be accelerating.

Explanation:

when you change directions or speed up you are accelerating (or decelerating)  and when you change directions or speed its called velocity.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

H = 1/2 g t^2      no original vertical velocity

t = (2 * 2000 / 9.8)^1/2 = 20.2 s

Sx = 100 m/s * 20.2 s = 2020 m
