True or False: Warm air has greater air pressure than cool air 21 points

Physics
2 answers:
alukav5142 [94]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Warmer air is less dense than cold, which is why warm air tends to rise and cold air sinks. Being acted on by gravity, colder, denser air weighs more and exerts greater pressure per unit area.

We can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant volume and number of moles of the gas the ratio of T and P is equal to some constant. At another set of condition, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1/P1 = T2/P2

P2 = T2 x P1 / T1

P2 = 273 x 340 / 713

<span>P2 = 130 kPa</span>

1. In a(n) ______________________ circuit, all parts are connected one after another along one path.
poizon [28]

Answer:

1. A <em>series circuit </em>is a closed circuit which has all loads connected in a row and there is only one path for the current to flow.

2. The <em>Ohm's Law </em>state that a current flow through a resistor is directly proportional to the voltage across it R = \frac{V}{I}

3. A <em>parallel circuit </em>is a closed circuit divided into branches that it has two o more paths for the current to flow and the loads are parallel to each other which mean the voltage across them is the same for all loads.

What distance does light travel in water, glass, and diamond during the time that it travels 1.0 m in vacuum? The refractive ind
lidiya [134]

Answer:

refractive index for water,glass,diamond are 0.752m, 0.667m, 0.413m respectively

Explanation:

refractive index (n) = \frac{velocity of light in air/vacuum}{velocity of light in substance}

velocity =\frac{distance}{time}

The time for travel is kept constant for all mediums.

refractive index (n) = \frac{\frac{distance in vacuum}{time} }{\frac{distance in medium}{time} }\\ \\=\frac{distance in vacuum}{distance in medium}

distance in medium = \frac{distance in vacuum}{refractive index of medium}

S_{medium}  = \frac{S_{vacuum} }{n_{medium} }

For water, n= 1.33

S_{water} = \frac{1 }{1.33}

S_{water} = 0.752m

For glass, n=1.5

S_{glass}= \frac{1 }{1.5}

S_{glass} = 0.667m

For diamond, n= 2.42

S_{diamond} = \frac{1 }{2.42}

S_{diamond} = 0.413m

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.
