Answer:

c = 894.90 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of wave = 471 Hz

Wavelength of wave = 1.9 m

Speed of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength

c = f×λ

c = 471 Hz × 1.9 m

Hz = s⁻¹

c = 471s⁻¹ × 1.9 m

c = 894.90 m/s

The speed of wave is 894.90 m/s.

Answer:

The maximum amount of work is $W = 1563.289 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The temperature of the environment is $T = 280\ K$

The volume of container A is $V_A = 2 m^3$

Initially the number of moles is $n = 1.2 \ moles$

The volume of container B is $V_B = 3.5 \ m^3$

At equilibrium of the gas the maximum work that can be done on the turbine is mathematically represented as

$W = P_A V_A ln[ \frac{V_B}{V_A} ]$

Now from the Ideal gas law

$P_A V_A = nRT$

So substituting for $P_A V_A$ in the equation above

$W = nRT ln [\frac{V_B}{V_A} ]$

Where R is the gas constant with a values of $R = 8.314 \ J/mol$

Substituting values we have that

$W = 1.2 * (8.314) * (280) * ln [\frac{3.5}{2} ]$

$W = 1563.289 \ J$

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.

a 45 kg ice skater initially skating at a velocity of 3 m/s speeds up to a velocity of 5 m/s. calculate the difference in the ma

ad-work [718]

Answer: 90 kgm/s

Explanation:

The momentum (linear momentum) $p$ is given by the following equation:

$p=m.V$

Where:

$m=45 kg$ is the mass of the skater

$V$ is the velocity

In this situation the skater has two values of momentum:

Initial momentum: $p_{1}=m.V_{1}$

Final momentum: $p_{2}=m.V_{2}$

Where:

$V_{1}=3 m/s$

$V_{1}=5 m/s$

So, if we want to calculate the difference in the magnitude of the skater's momentum, we have to write the following equation(assuming the mass of the skater remains constant):

$p=p_{2}-p_{1}=m.V_{2}-m.V_{1}$

$p=m(V_{2}-V_{1})$

$p=45 kg(5 m/s - 3 m/s)$

Finally:

$p=90 kgm/s$

A golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and at an angle of 35 degrees. What is the horizontal velocity compo

Sever21 [200]

The horizontal component of the velocity of the ball is calculated by multiplying the speed by the cosine of the given angle.
x-component of speed = (31 m/s)(cos 35°)
= 25.39 m/s
Thus, the horizontal velocity component of the ball is 25.39 m/s.

choli [55]

Answer:

$1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$

Explanation:

q = Charge in the potassium ion = $19e-18e$

e = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

$V_2-V_1$ = Change in potential = $0-(-85.5\times 10^{-3})$

Change in electric potential is given by

$E=q(V_2-V_1)\\\Rightarrow E=(19e-18e)(0-(-85.5\times 10^{-3})\\\Rightarrow E=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 85.5\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow E=1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$

The energy is $1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$
