Answer:

W = 289.70 kg

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure in tank = 23 atm

Altitude 1000 ft

Air temperature  in tank T = 700 F

Volume of tank = 800 ft^3 = 22.654 m^3

from ideal gas equation we have

PV =n RT

Therefore number of mole inside the tank is

\frac{1}{n} = \frac{RT}{PV}

              = \frac{8.206\times 10^{-5}} 644.261}{23\times 22.654}

               = 1.02\times 10^{-4}

               n = 10^4 mole

we know that 1 mole of air weight is 28.97 g

therefore, tank air weight is W = 10^4\times 28.91 g = 289700 g

               W = 289.70 kg

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

m = 15 kg

Explanation:

p = m × v

90 = m × 6

6m = 90

m = 90/6

m = 15 kg

Discuss the effects of breaking a food chain.
Tom [10]

Explanation:

Food chain is linear sequence of the organisms through which the nutrients and the energy pass as one organism eats the another.

<u>If one species in the food chain ceases to exist, the other members in rest of chain could cease to exist too or may increase in population which can affect other food chains. (Breaking of food chain).</u>

This is because the animals in the food chain are dependent on the nutrient present in the another.

For example in the food chain,

Grass ----  Deer ------ Lion

If all deer extinct, the lion will die as they will have nothing to feed on and the population of grass increases.

A 55 kg track and field athlete has an average power output of 5.4 kW during the 200 meter dash. How quickly did she finish the
olga_2 [115]

The time taken for the athlete to finish the race is 20 s (Option A)

<h3>What is power? </h3>

Power is simply defined as the rate at which work is done. It can be expressed mathematically as

Power (P) = work (W) / time (t)

But

Work = weight × distance

Therefore,

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

<h3>How to determine the time </h3>
  • Mass (m) = 55 Kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Weight = mg = 55 × 9.8 = 539 N
  • Power (P) = 5.4 KW = 5.4 × 1000 = 5400 W
  • Distance (d) = 200 m
  • Time (t) =?

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

5400 = (539 × 200) / t

5400 = 107800 / t

Cross multiply

5400 × t = 107800

Divide both side by 5400

t = 107800 / 5400

t = 20 s
