Answer: Humidity is inversely related to the air pressure.

Explanation:

Humidity is defined as the amount of water vapor present in air. Humid air has more water content in the air.

Air pressure is defined as the amount of air present in a column.

Humid air means less air content in the air and it further means low pressure.

From this, we can say that humidity is inversely related to the air pressure.

$\text{Humidity}\propto \frac{1}{\text{Air pressure}}$

More, the humidity, less will be the air pressure and vice-versa.

Answer:

There is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the change of voumen in a substance depending on the temperature.

The formula that describes this thermal expansion process is given by:

$\Delta V = \beta V_0 \Delta T$

Where,

$\Delta V =$ Change in volume

$V_0 =$ Initial Volume

$\Delta T =$ Change in temperature

$\beta =$ coefficient of volume expansion (Coefficient of copper and of the liquid for this case)

There are two types of materials in the container, liquid and copper, so we have to change the amount of Total Volume that would be subject to,

$\Delta V_T = \Delta V_l - \Delta V_c$

Where,

$\Delta V_l$ = Change in the volume of liquid

$\Delta V_c$ = Change in the volume of copper

Then replacing with the previous equation we have:

$\Delta V = \beta_l V_0 \Delta T- \beta_c V_0 \Delta T$

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

Our values are given as,

Thermal expansion coefficient for copper and the liquid to 20°C is

$\beta_c = 51*10^{-6}/\°C$

$\beta_l = 400*10^{-6}/\°C$

$V_0 = 16L$

$\Delta T = (95\°C-10\°C)$

Replacing we have that,

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

$\Delta V = (400*10^{-6}/\°C-51*10^{-6}/\°C)(16L)(95\°C-10\°C)$

$\Delta V = 0.475L$

Therefore there is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

choli [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

length l = 2.3 m

a = 0.12 cm = $0.12 \times 10^{-2} \ m$

$x = 1.17 \ cm = 1.17 \times 10^{-2}\ m$

m = 149 kg

$\delta = 7.87 \ g/cm^3$

$da = 2.28 \times 10^{-10}\ m$

$F_{net} = F-mg\\ \\0 = F - mg \\ \\ F = mg \\ \\ k_sx = mg \\ \\$

∴

$k_s = \dfrac{149(9.8)}{1.17 \times 10^{-2}} \\ \\ k_s = 124803.42 \ N /m$

$N_{chain} = \dfrac{A_{wire}}{A_{atom}} = \dfrac{A_w}{da^2}$

$N_{chain} = \dfrac{(a)^2}{(da)^2} = (\dfrac{a}{da})^2$

$N_{chain} = (\dfrac{0.12 \times 10^{-2} }{2.28 \times 10^{-10}})^2$

$N_{chain} = 2.77 \times 10^{13}$

$N_{bond} = \dfrac{L}{da} \\ \\ = \dfrac{2.3}{2.28 \times 10^{-10}} \\ \\ N_{bond} = 1.009 \times 10^{10}$

$\text{Finally; the stiffness of a single interatomic spring is:}$

$k_{si} =\dfrac{N_{bond}}{N_{chain}}\times k_s$

$k_{si} =\dfrac{(1.009 \times 10^{10})}{2.77*10^{13}}}\times (124803.42)$

$\mathbf{k_{si} =45.46 \ N/m}$

A person is listening to a tone of 500 Hz sitting from a distance of 450 m from the source of the sound. What is the time interv

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

Explanation:

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency by the equation

v = λ f

where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

λ = v / f

λ = 340/500

λ = 0.68 m

this is the wavelength, it is the minimum distance for which the wave epitates its movement, which is equal to the distance between two consecutive compressions of the sound

ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

A 5.0 kg wooden block is in free fall at 10 m/s. What is the Kinetic Energy for the wooden block?

andre [41]

Answer:

250 J

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

K = 1/2.m.v²

K = 1/2.5.10²

K = 1/2.5.100

K = 5.50

K = 250 Joules

But, remember that if the speed is accelerating or not, if it is, then we need to know the point in time that the question is asking for the Kinetic Energy.

In this case, I think it is just a constant speed.
