Explanation:

<h2>Critical Point :</h2>

It's the end point of equilibrium curve .
It's typically higher than standard temperature.
pressure is also higher than standard pressure.

<h2>Triple Point :</h2>

It's point where the three equilibrium curves meet.
Temperature is lower than standard temperature.
pressure is lower than standard pressure.

Additional points :

The triple point represents combination of pressure .

What's a disadvantage of highest MERV-rated filters?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

3) the pressure drop across high MERV filters is significant.

Explanation:

MERV (Minimum-Efficiency Reporting Value) is used to measure the efficiency of filter to remove particles. A filter of high MERV can filter smaller particles but this causes an increase in reduced air flow that is an increase in pressure drop. High MERV filters capture more particles causing them to get congested faster and thereby increasing pressure drop.

Excessive pressure drop can cause overheating and lead to damage of the filter. The pressure drop can be reduced by increasing the surface area of the filter.

The fracture strength of glass may be increased by etching away a thin surface layer. It is believed that the etching may alter

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we determine the initial fracture stress using the following expression;

(σf)₁ = 2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ ----- let this be equation 1

where; (σ₀)₁ is the initial fracture strength

( $p_t$ )₁ is the original crack tip radius

α₁ is the original crack length.

first, we determine the final crack length;

α₂ = α₁ - 16% of α₁

α₂ = α₁ - ( 0.16 × α₁)

α₂ = α₁ - 0.16α₁

α₂ = 0.84α₁

next, we calculate the final fracture stress;

the fracture strength is increased by a factor of 6;

(σ₀)₂ = 6( σ₀ )₁

Now, expression for the final fracture stress

(σf)₂ = 2(σ₀)₂ $[$ α₂/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$ ------- let this be equation 2

where ( $p_t$ )₂ is the etched crack tip radius

value of fracture stress of glass is constant

Now, we substitute 2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ from equation for (σf)₂ in equation 2.

0.84α₁ for α₂.

6( σ₀ )₁ for (σ₀)₂.

∴

2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 2(6( σ₀ )₁) $[$ 0.84α₁/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

divide both sides by 2(σ₀)₁

$[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 6 $[$ 0.84α₁/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

$[$ 1/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 6 $[$ 0.84/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

$[$ 1/( $p_t$ )₁ $]$ = 36 $[$ 0.84/( $p_t$ )₂ $]$

1 / ( $p_t$ )₁ = 30.24 / ( $p_t$ )₂

( $p_t$ )₂ = 30.24( $p_t$ )₁

( $p_t$ )₂/( $p_t$ )₁ = 30.24

Therefore, the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

The capacity of a battery is 1800 mAh and its OCV is 3.9 V. a) Two batteries are placed in series. What is the combined battery

Lynna [10]

Answer:

capacity = 0.555 mAh

capacity = 3600 mAh

Explanation:

given data

battery = 1800 mAh

OCV = 3.9 V

solution

we get here capacity when it is in series

so here Q = 2C

capacity = 2 × ampere × second ...............1

put here value and we get

and 1 Ah = 3600 C

capacity = $\frac{2}{3600}$

capacity = 0.555 mAh

and

when it is in parallel than capacity will be

capacity = Q1 +Q2 ...............2

capacity = 1800 + 1800

capacity = 3600 mAh

A person holds her hand out of an open car window while the car drives through still air at 65 mph. Under standard atmospheric c

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$10.8\ \text{lb/ft^2}$

$101.96\ \text{lb/ft}^2$

Explanation:

$v_1$ = Velocity of car = 65 mph = $65\times \dfrac{5280}{3600}=95.33\ \text{ft/s}$

$\rho$ = Density of air = $0.00237\ \text{slug/ft}^3$

$v_2=0$

$P_1=0$

$h_1=h_2$

From Bernoulli's law we have

$P_1+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2+h_1=P_2+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2+h_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00237\times 95.33^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=10.8\ \text{lb/ft^2}$
