Question:

1. Some are known as "nun" buoys

2. They are labeled with odd numbers

3. If it is lighted, the light color is green

4. Some are known as "can" buoys

Answer:

The correct option is;

1. Some are known as "nun" buoys

Explanation:

Based on the lateral system, on the starboard side, one can find the red even numbered marks while the odd-numbered, green, marks are located on the port side of a channel such that the buoy numbers increase as a vessel travels upstream.

The red buoys are cones shaped in appearance and have triangular reflective sign markings embossed and they are of different types included in the order of lower water depth

1. NUN buoy

2. Lighted buoy

3. Light

4. Day beacon

Therefore, the correct option is 1. Some are known as "NUN" buoys.

The period of a pendulum T is assumed to depend only on the mass m, the length of the pendulum `, the acceleration due to gravit

zzz [600]

Answer:

The expression is shown in the explanation below:

Explanation:

Thinking process:

Let the time period of a simple pendulum be given by the expression:

$T = \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Let the fundamental units be mass= M, time = t, length = L

Then the equation will be in the form

$T = M^{a}l^{b}g^{c}$

$T = KM^{a}l^{b}g^{c}$

where k is the constant of proportionality.

Now putting the dimensional formula:

$T = KM^{a}L^{b} [LT^{-} ^{2}]^{c}$

$M^{0}L^{0}T^{1} = KM^{a}L^{b+c}$

Equating the powers gives:

a = 0

b + c = 0

2c = 1, c = -1/2

b = 1/2

so;

a = 0 , b = 1/2 , c = -1/2

Therefore:

$T = KM^{0}l^{\frac{1}{2} } g^{\frac{1}{2} }$

T = $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

where k = $2\pi$

To put out a class D metal fire, you must _______ the fire.

gladu [14]

To put out a class D metal fire, you must smother the fire and eliminate the oxygen element in the fire.

<h3>What is a Class D fire?</h3>

A class D fire is a type of fire that cannot be extinguished by water. This is because adding water to it reacts with other elements in the fire intensifying the fire even more.

Smothering in this context involves adding a solution like carbon dioxide (CO2) into the fire, this results in a reduction of oxygen in the atmosphere surrounding the class D fire.

By so doing, smothering the fire eliminates the oxygen element in the fire, thereby extinguishing the fire.

In order to fill a tank of 1000 liter volume to a pressure of 10 atm at 298K, an 11.5Kg of the gas is required. How many moles o

lesya [120]

Answer:

The molecular weight will be "28.12 g/mol".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Pressure,

P = 10 atm

= $10\times 101325 \ Pa$

= $1013250 \ Pa$

Temperature,

T = 298 K

Mass,

m = 11.5 Kg

Volume,

V = 1000 r

= $1 \ m^3$

R = 8.3145 J/mol K

Now,

By using the ideal gas law, we get

⇒ $PV=nRT$

⇒ $n=\frac{PV}{RT}$

By substituting the values, we get

$=\frac{1013250\times 1}{8.3145\times 298}$

$=408.94 \ moles$

As we know,

⇒ $Moles(n)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Molecular \ weight(MW)}$

or,

⇒ $MW=\frac{m}{n}$

$=\frac{11.5}{408.94}$

$=0.02812 \ Kg/mol$

$=28.12 \ g/mol$

Which of the following ranges depicts the 2% tolerance range to the full 9 digits provided?

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

the only one that meets the requirements is option C .

Explanation:

The tolerance of a quantity is the maximum limit of variation allowed for that quantity.

To find it we must have the value of the magnitude, its closest value is the average value, this value can be given or if it is not known it is calculated with the formula

x_average = ∑ $x_{i}$ / n

The tolerance or error is the current value over the mean value per 100

Δx₁ = x₁ / x_average

tolerance = | 100 -Δx₁ 100 |

bars indicate absolute value

let's look for these values for each case

x_average = (2.1700000+ 2.258571429) / 2

x_average = 2.2142857145

fluctuation for x₁

Δx₁ = 2.17000 / 2.2142857145

Tolerance = 100 - 97.999999991

Tolerance = 2.000000001%

fluctuation x₂

Δx₂ = 2.258571429 / 2.2142857145

Δx2 = 1.02

tolerance = 100 - 102.000000009

tolerance 2.000000001%

x_average = (2.2 + 2.29) / 2

x_average = 2,245

fluctuation x₁

Δx₁ = 2.2 / 2.245

Δx₁ = 0.9799554

tolerance = 100 - 97,999

Tolerance = 2.00446%

fluctuation x₂

Δx₂ = 2.29 / 2.245

Δx₂ = 1.0200445

Tolerance = 2.00445%

x_average = (2.211445 +2.3) / 2

x_average = 2.2557225

Δx₁ = 2.211445 / 2.2557225 = 0.9803710

tolerance = 100 - 98.0371

tolerance = 1.96%

Δx₂ = 2.3 / 2.2557225 = 1.024624

tolerance = 100 -101.962896

tolerance = 1.96%

x_average = (2.20144927 + 2.29130435) / 2

x_average = 2.24637681

Δx₁ = 2.20144927 / 2.24637681 = 0.98000043

tolerance = 100 - 98.000043

tolerance = 2.000002%

Δx₂ = 2.29130435 / 2.24637681 = 1.0200000017

tolerance = 2.0000002%

x_average = (2 +2,3) / 2

x_average = 2.15

Δx₁ = 2 / 2.15 = 0.93023

tolerance = 100 -93.023

tolerance = 6.98%

Δx₂ = 2.3 / 2.15 = 1.0698

tolerance = 6.97%

Let's analyze these results, the result E is clearly not in the requested tolerance range, the other values may be within the desired tolerance range depending on the required precision, for the high precision of this exercise the only one that meets the requirements is option C .
