If you slosh the water back and forth in a bathtub at the correct frequency, the water rises first at one end and then at the ot

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Velocity(v) = frequency(f) × wavelength

f = 0.3165

Wavelength = 2×length(L)

L = 157cm

Convert the length in centimetres to metre = 1.57m

v = 2×1.57 × 0.3165

v = 0.99m/s

Approx. 1m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave is the product of its frequency and it's wavelength. The frequency is already known. The wavelength is the distance between two successive wave crests which is formed by sloshing water back and forth in the bath tub. Sloshing water to one end of the tub will produce a wave crest first at that end then the other completing a cycle. The wavelength will be twice the length of the bath tub as it is the distance that both crests are formed.

Wave crest is the highest point of a wave, and in this case is where the water rises to a high point in the bath tub

Air escaping out from an air hose at a gas station always feels cool. Why?

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The air is contained at a high pressure in the tube. When it escapes from a small orifice, it suddenly expands. A large amount of its heat is absorbed in the process of expansion resulting in considerable fall in its temperature. This is why the escaping air feels cold.

When water is boiled under a pressure of 2.00atm, the heat of vaporization is 2.20×106J/kg and the boiling point is 120∘C. At th

Vikki [24]

Answer:

2033219.05 J

Explanation:

V = Volume

P = Pressure = 2 atm

m = Mass of water = 1 kg

$L_v$ = Heat of vaporization = $2.2\times 10^6\ J/kg$

Work done in an isobaric system is given by

$W=-P\Delta V\\\Rightarrow W=-2\times 101325\times (1\times 10^{-3}-0.824)\\\Rightarrow W=166780.95\ J$

Work done is 166780.95 J

Change in internal energy is given by

$\Delta U=Q-W$

Heat is given by

$Q=mL_v\\\Rightarrow Q=1\times 2.2\times 10^6\\\Rightarrow Q=2.2\times 10^6\ J$

$\Delta U=2.2\times 10^6-166780.95\\\Rightarrow \Delta U=2033219.05\ J$

The increase in internal energy of the water is 2033219.05 J
