Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple Law of Momentum Conservation problem of the inelastic type. The equation for this is

[m_1v_1+m_2v_2]_b=[(m_1+m_2)v]_a  Filling in:

[1200(4.5)+2100(0)]=[(1200+2100)v] which simplifies to

5400 + 0 = 3300v

so v = 1.6 m/s to the east, choice B

g A large tank, at 400 kPa and 450 K, supplies air to a converging-diverging nozzle of throat area 4 cm2 and exit area 5 cm2. Fo
mariarad [96]

Answer:

A) ≥ 325Kpa

B) ( 265 < Pe < 325 ) Kpa

C) (94 < Pe < 265 )Kpa

D)  Pe < 94 Kpa

Explanation:

Given data :

A large Tank : Pressures are at 400kPa and 450 K

Throat area = 4cm^2 ,  exit area = 5cm^2

<u>a) Determine the range of back pressures that the flow will be entirely subsonic</u>

The range of flow of back pressures that will make the flow entirely subsonic

will be ≥ 325Kpa

attached below is the detailed solution

<u>B) Have a shock wave</u>

The range of back pressures for there to be shock wave inside the nozzle

= ( 265 < Pe < 325 ) Kpa

attached below is a detailed solution

C) Have oblique shocks outside the exit

= (94 < Pe < 265 )Kpa

D) Have supersonic expansion waves outside the exit

= Pe < 94 Kpa

What is the difference between a good conductor and a good insulator?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a conductor, electric current can flow freely, in an insulator it cannot.

Metals such as copper typify conductors, while most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them.

Most atoms hold on to their electrons tightly and are insulators.

Which is an IUPAC name for a covalent compound
Elena L [17]
In naming covalent compound (binary) based in IUPAC naming, we have 4 rules to be followed:

1. The first element of the formula will use the normal name of the given element. for example: CO2 ( Carbon Dioxide), Carbon is the element name of the first element of the formula.

2. The second element is named as if they are treated like an anion but put in mind that these are no ions in a covalent compound but we put -ide on the second element as if it is an anion.

3. Prefixes are used to indicate the number of atom of the elements in the compound. for example: mono- 1 atom, di- 2atoms, tri- 3 atoms and etc

4. Prefix "mono"is never used in naming the first element. For example: Carbon dioxide, there should be no monocarbon dioxide.
