Answer:

0.444atm

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (

P2 = final pressure (

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to this question,

P1 = 101.3 kPa = 101.3 × 0.00987 = 0.999atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 80L

V2 = 160L (double of V1)

T1 = 34°C = 34 + 273 = 307K

T2 = 0°C = 0 + 273 = 273K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

0.999 × 80/307 = P2 × 160/273

79.92/307 = 160P2/273

Cross multiply

307 × 160P2 = 79.92 × 273

49120P2 = 21818.16

P2 = 21818.16 ÷ 49120

P2 = 0.444

P2 = 0.444atm

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

63.05 cm²

Explanation:

We use Pascals law to find the answer.

The law says that in an incomprehensible , non-viscous fluid the pressure applied will transmit through out the fluid without a change.

So, Pressure on larger piston = pressure on smaller piston.

$\frac{444}{3.14} = \frac{8915}{A}$

A ≅ 63.05 cm²

At the moment t = 0, a 20.0 V battery is connected to a 5.00 mH coil and a 6.00 Ω resistor. (a) Immediately thereafter, how does

insens350 [35]

(a) On the coil: 20 V, on the resistor: 0 V

The sum of the potential difference across the coil and the potential difference across the resistor is equal to the voltage provided by the battery, V = 20 V:

$V = V_R + V_L$

The potential difference across the inductance is given by

$V_L(t) = V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

where

$\tau = \frac{L}{R}=\frac{0.005 H}{6.00 \Omega}=8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s$ is the time constant of the circuit

At time t=0,

$V_L(0) = V e^0 = V = 20 V$

So, all the potential difference is across the coil, therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be zero:

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V-20 V=0$

(b) On the coil: 0 V, on the resistor: 20 V

Here we are analyzing the situation several seconds later, which means that we are analyzing the situation for

$t >> \tau$

Since $\tau$ is at the order of less than milliseconds.

Using eq.(1), we see that for $t >> \tau$ , the exponential becomes zero, and therefore the potential difference across the coil is zero:

$V_L = 0$

Therefore, the potential difference across the resistor will be

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V- 0 = 20 V$

(c) Yes

The two voltages will be equal when:

$V_L = V_R$ (2)

Reminding also that the sum of the two voltages must be equal to the voltage of the battery:

$V=V_L +V_R$

And rewriting this equation,

$V_R = V-V_L$

Substituting into (2) we find

$V_L = V-V_L\\2V_L = V\\V_L=\frac{V}{2}=10 V$

So, the two voltages will be equal when they are both equal to 10 V.

(d) at $t=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

We said that the two voltages will be equal when

$V_L=\frac{V}{2}$

Using eq.(1), and this last equation, this means

$V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} = \frac{V}{2}$

And solving the equation for t, we find the time t at which the two voltages are equal:

$e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}=\frac{1}{2}\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(1/2)\\t=-\tau ln(0.5)=-(8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s)ln(0.5)=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

(e-a) -19.2 V on the coil, 19.2 V on the resistor

Here we have that the current in the circuit is

$I_0 = 3.20 A$

The problem says this current is stable: this means that we are in a situation in which $t>>\tau$ , so the coil has no longer influence on the circuit, which is operating as it is a normal circuit with only one resistor. Therefore, we can find the potential difference across the resistor using Ohm's law

$V=I_0 R = (3.20 A)(6.0 \Omega)=19.2 V$

Then the battery is removed from the circuit: this means that the coil will discharge through the resistor.

The voltage on the coil is given by

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

which means that it is maximum at the moment when the battery is disconnected, when t=0:

$V_L(0)=.V$

And V this time is the voltage across the resistor, 19.2 V (because the coil is now connected to the resistor, not to the battery). So, the voltage across the coil will be -19.2 V, and the voltage across the resistor will be the same in magnitude, 19.2 V (since the coil and the resistor are connected to the same points in the circuit): however, the signs of the potential difference will be opposite.

(e-b) 0 V on both

After several seconds,

$t>>\tau$

If we use this approximation into the formula

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

We find that

$V_L = 0$

And since now the resistor is directly connected to the coil, the voltage in the resistor will be the same as the coil, so 0 V. This means that the coil has completely discharged, and current is no longer flowing through the circuit.

Answer:

Yes it will move and a= 4.19m/s^2

Explanation:

In order for the box to move it needs to overcome the maximum static friction force

Max Static Friction = μFn(normal force)

plug in givens

Max Static friction = 31.9226

Since 36.6>31.9226, the box will move

Mass= Wieght/g which is 45.8/9.8= 4.67kg

Fnet = Fapp-Fk

= 36.6-16.9918

=19.6082

An 80-kilogram skier slides on waxed skis along a horizontal surface of snow at constant velocity while pushing with his poles.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's write Newton's second law of the two axes

Y Axis

Fy + N - W = 0

Fy + N = W

X axis

Fx - fr = 0

Fx = fr

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

The direction of this force is along the length of the rods that are in an Angle, where the x and y components of the force come from

In general this force is small because the rubbing of the skis is small

Which applications, either for diagnostic purposes or for therapeutic purposes, involve radioactive materials placed in the body

CaHeK987 [17]

When a radioactive material is required to be placed in the body, the applications are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.

Radioactive materials are elements which has the ability to disintegrate by emitting radioactive substance or radiation. A good example of this is Cobalt-60, Titanium-99 etc.

Brachytherapy is a therapeutic process in which radioactive material is inserted into the body in close proximity to the region affected. The radioactive material emits radiations which are required to control the unwanted biological material in the body. A good application of this is the treatment of cancer using Cobalt-60.

Radioisotope imaging is a diagnostic process which is an imaging technique that may require placing a radioactive material in the body so as to trace or locate the affected part of the body. In this case, the material is used as a tracing element.

The applications that require the placing of radioactive materials in the body are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.
