Answer:

The warming causes the oceans to release CO2. The CO2 amplifies the warming and mixes through the atmosphere, spreading warming throughout the planet. So CO2 causes warming AND rising temperature causes CO2 rise. Overall, about 90% of the global warming occurs after the CO2 increase.

A river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 M3/s. This river has three tributaries, tributary A, B and C, which account fo

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

50421.6 m³

Explanation:

The river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 m³/s.

Tributary B accounts for 47% of the rate of water flow. Therefore the rate of water flow through tributary B is:

Flow rate of water through tributary B = 47% of 59.6 m³/s = 0.47 * 59.6 m³/s = 28.012 m³/s

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B = Flow rate of water through tributary B * time taken

time = 30 minutes = 30 minutes * 60 seconds / minute = 1800 seconds

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B in 30 seconds = 28.012 m³/s * 1800 seconds = 50421.6 m³

A well insulated rigid tank contains 4 kg of argon gas at 450 kPa and 30 C. A valve is opened, allowing the argon to escape unti

natima [27]

Answer:

Final mass of Argon= 2.46 kg

Explanation:

Initial mass of Argon gas ( M1 ) = 4 kg

P1 = 450 kPa

T1 = 30°C = 303 K

P2 = 200 kPa

k ( specific heat ratio of Argon ) = 1.667

assuming a reversible adiabatic process

Calculate the value of the M2

Applying ideal gas equation ( PV = mRT )

P₁V / P₂V = m₁ RT₁ / m₂ RT₂

hence : m2 = P₂T₁ / P₁T₂ * m₁

= (200 * 303 ) / (450 * 219 ) * 4

= 2.46 kg

Note: Calculation for T2 is attached below

A person is planning a bungee jump from a 40 meter high bridge. Under the bridge is a river with crocodiles, so the person does

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a. l = 19.7m, b. 18.55m, c. Impact Force = 3889.84 N

Explanation:

The total energy of the system when the person is at top of the bridge is

Potential energy = mgh, Kinetic energy = 0

The total energy of the system when the person reaches just above the surface

Potential energy = 0, Kinetic energy = 0, Spring energy = ½ K X2, where k is the spring constant and X is the deflection

Applying conservation of energy

mgh = 0 + 0 + ½ K X²

80 x 9.81 x 40 = ½ (3600/l) X²

31392 = ½ (3600/l) X²

We can also conclude that

l+ X + 1.75 = 40

l + X = 38.25

a. Substitute the value of x from above into the energy conversion expression

31392 = ½ (3600/l)(38.25 - l)²

31392 x 2/3600 = (38.25 + l² – 2l(38.25))/l

17.44l = l2 – 76.5l + 38.25²

l² – 76.5l – 17.44l +1463.0625 = 0

Solving for l we get

L = 19.7

Hence, length of the rope is 19.7m

b. The deflection is calculated by using the relation between l and X

L + X = 38.25

X = 38.25 – 19.7 = 18.55m

c. The impact force is calculated using the impact force formula which relates the impact force with the deflection

F = KX

F = (3600/l) . X

F = (3600/19.7) . (18.55) = 3889.84 N

Thus, the impact force is 3889.84 N
