How is aperture measured? What do the measurements mean?

1 answer:

4 0

Aperture is measured in F-stops, in which the f-stops is the amount of light allowed to pass through the aperture, which simply put means that the smaller the aperture, the higher the f-stops. What it does is reduce the amount of light that reaches the film, so the higher the f-stops, the less light reaches the film.

At 80 degrees celsius the vapor pressure of benzene is 753 torr and that of toluene is 290 torr. What is the total pressure and

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The total pressure of the solution is 598.66 torr

while the vapor pressure of the components is vapor pressure of benzene is =502 torr and that of toluene = 96.6 tor

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to look at the known variables, the unknown variables, and then we select the appropriate relations between the known variables and the unknown

Here we have the temperature of the gases t = 80°C

the pressures of benzene = 753 torr

the pressures of toluene = 290 torr

mole fraction of benzene in solution = 2/3

mole fraction of toluene in solution = 1/3

the unknown variables = composition of the solution and the total pressure of the solution

From here given the known variables and the required variables, the appropriate relation bstween the known and unknown variables is Route's Law

Raoult's relates the vapor pressure of a mixture of gases to the mole fraction of solute gases introduced in the gas solution. Raoult's Law is expressed by the formula: Psolution = Χsolvent1×Psolvent1 + Χsolvent2×Psolvent2+ ... .

where. Psolution = vapor pressure of the solution and

Χsolvent1 = mole fraction of solvent 1

Psolvent1 = vapor pressure of solvent1

Thus we have by Raoult's Law

$P_{solution}$ = $X_{benzene}$ × $P_{benzene}$ + $X_{toluene}$ × $P_{toluene}$

which is =2/3×753 + 1/3×290 = 502 + 96.6 = 598.66 torr

and composition vapor pressure of benzene is 502 torr

while the composition vapor pressure of toluene is 96.6 torr

A 500-n parachutist opens his chute and experiences an air resistance force of 800 n. the net force on the parachutist is then

Tasya [4]

Force of 500 N is acting on the parachutist.

Parachutist applies 500 N force in downward direction.

Answer:

300 N upward

Solution:

Parachutist feels air resistance of 800 N.

Thus, 800 N of force is acting in upward direction.

Total force acting on the parachutist is given by,

$F_{net}$ = air resistance force - force of parachutist

$F_{net}$ = 800-500

$F_{net}$ = 300 N

Direction of force is in upward direction because the air resistance force is more than force of parachutist.

A baseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. A catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. Find the magnit

Sidana [21]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

$y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0$

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

$v_0$ = Initial velocity

$y_0$ = initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

$t = \frac{x}{v}$

$t = \frac{18.6}{34}$

$t = 0.547s$

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

$y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0$

$y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2+0+0$

$y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

$y = \frac{1}{2} 9.8*0.547^2$

$y = 1.46m$

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The resultant velocity of the helicopter is $\vec v_{H} = \left(89.894\,\frac{m}{s}, -93.348\,\frac{m}{s}\right)$ .

Explanation:

Physically speaking, the resulting velocity of the helicopter ( $\vec v_{H}$ ), measured in meters per second, is equal to the absolute velocity of the wind ( $\vec v_{W}$ ), measured in meters per second, plus the velocity of the helicopter relative to wind ( $\vec v_{H/W}$ ), also call velocity at still air, measured in meters per second. That is:

$\vec v_{H} = \vec v_{W}+\vec v_{H/W}$ (1)

In addition, vectors in rectangular form are defined by the following expression:

$\vec v = \|\vec v\| \cdot (\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha)$ (2)

Where:

$\|\vec v\|$ - Magnitude, measured in meters per second.

$\alpha$ - Direction angle, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

Then, (1) is expanded by applying (2):

$\vec v_{H} = \|\vec v_{W}\| \cdot (\cos \alpha_{W},\sin \alpha_{W}) +\|\vec v_{H/W}\| \cdot (\cos \alpha_{H/W},\sin \alpha_{H/W})$ (3)

$\vec v_{H} = \left(\|\vec v_{W}\|\cdot \cos \alpha_{W}+\|\vec v_{H/W}\|\cdot \cos \alpha_{H/W}, \|\vec v_{W}\|\cdot \sin \alpha_{W}+\|\vec v_{H/W}\|\cdot \sin \alpha_{H/W} \right)$

If we know that $\|\vec v_{W}\| = 25\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $\|\vec v_{H/W}\| = 125\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $\alpha_{W} = 240^{\circ}$ and $\alpha_{H/W} = 325^{\circ}$ , then the resulting velocity of the helicopter is:

$\vec v_{H} = \left(\left(25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \cos 240^{\circ}+\left(125\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \cos 325^{\circ}, \left(25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \sin 240^{\circ}+\left(125\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \sin 325^{\circ}\right)$ $\vec v_{H} = \left(89.894\,\frac{m}{s}, -93.348\,\frac{m}{s}\right)$

The resultant velocity of the helicopter is $\vec v_{H} = \left(89.894\,\frac{m}{s}, -93.348\,\frac{m}{s}\right)$ .
