Why is a football firm when it is inflated to its proper pressure

Physics
1 answer:
Molodets [167]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Proper Inflation and Feel When inflating your ball, you can use either a hand pump or an air pump equipped with a gauge that gives readings in pounds per square inch, also called psi. Footballs used in the NFL are inflated to 13 psi, but a proper range can fall between 12.5 and 13.5 psi, according to Wilson Sporting Goods.

Which one of the following energy conversion devices has the lowest energy efficiency?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A) incandescent ligth bulb, its efficiency is about 10%

Explanation:

The incandescent bulb, that is, the well-known focus with its warm light, was one of the most useful inventions of the 19th century although its use is currently considered very inefficient. These lamps waste between 80 and 90 percent of the total electricity they consume by turning it into heat. The metal filament thus heated and which is the central part of the bulb, only converts the remaining energy into light. Its service life ranges from 750 to 1,000 hours.

This is why they are used in ovens for food preparation, because of the large amount of heat they generate.

The steam boiler in a power plant depends on the fuel that it is using, but a coal-fired power plant with modern technology its efficiency is about 40%

Electric motor are around 85-92%

In order to better understand the concept of efficiency it is as if we pay 100 dollars of gasoline for our weekly use, but of that 100 dollars the car only uses 10 dollars to do that activity the rest of the money the 90 dollars were lost because of the inefficiencies of the vehicle.

Amanda spent 2/5 of her time after school doing homework and ¼ of her remaining time riding her bike. If she rode her bike for 4
Doss [256]

Answer:120 min

Explanation:

Given

Amanda  spent \frac{2}{5} of her time after school doing Home work

And \frac{1}{4} of her remaining  time riding her bike

It is given that she rode her bike for 45 minutes in a week

Let t be the time after school

therefore Amanda spend \frac{2t}{5} in home work and  \frac{3t}{5} time is left

From remaining \frac{3t}{5} time she spends \frac{1}{4} time riding her bike

therefore \frac{3t}{5}\times \frac{1}{4}=45

thus t=300 min

therefore time  spent on home work is \frac{2}{5}\times 300=120 min

Damping is negligible for a 0.135-kg object hanging from a light, 6.30-N/m spring. A sinusoidal force with an amplitude of 1.70
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.72 Hz minimum frequency

Explanation:

When the damping is negligible,Amplitude is given as

A = (F/m)/[\sqrt{(\omega ^{^{2}}-\omega _{o}^{2}})^2

here \omega _{o}^{2}= k/m = (6.30)/(0.135) = 46.67 N/m kg

F / mA = 1.70/(0.135)(0.480) = 26.2 N/m kg

From the above equation , rearranging for ω,

\omega ^{2}= \omega _{o}^{2}\pm F/m

⇒ ω² =46.67 ± 26.2 = 72.87 or 20.47

⇒ ω = 8.53 or 4.52 rad/s

Frequency = f

ω=2 π f

⇒ f = ω / 2π =  8.53 /6.28  or 4.52 / 6.28 = 1.36 Hz or 0.72 Hz

The lower frequency is 0.72 Hz and higher is 1.36 Hz

Calculate the total resistance for a 650ohm , a 350 ohm , and a 1000 ohm resistor connected in series
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

2000 ohms

Explanation:

Resisters in series just add.

Rt = R1 + R2 + R3

R1 = 650 ohm

R2 = 350 ohm

R3 = 1000 ohm

Rt = 650 + 350 + 1000

Rt = 2000 ohms.

Mass×acceleration of a triangle =force​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The force acting on a body is always equal to the product of the mass of the body and its acceleration.

Explanation:

The force of a body is defined as the product of mass and acceleration of the body.

According to Newton's second law, wherever there is a change in momentum of the body for an interval of time, there is a force acting on it.

                         F = (mv - mu) / t

                             = m (v -u) /t

                              = m a

Where,

                                 (v - u)/t - is the change in velocity of the body in the interval of time. It is equal to the acceleration of the body.

Hence, the equation for the force for any body becomes, F = m x a
