When the swimmer gets out, the water on her skin begins to evaporate. This process requires takes a lot of energy and that energy comes from the heat of her body. This is similar to when someone sweats. Hope this helps!

Solution :

We assume that there is a ring having a charge +Q and radius r. Electric field due to the ring at a point P on the axis is given by :

$E_P=\int dE \cos$

$E_P=\int \frac{KdQ}{(\sqrt{r^2+x^2})^2}\times \frac{x}{\sqrt{r^2+x^2}}$

$\vec{E_P}=\frac{Kx}{r^2+x^2} \int dQ$

$\vec{E_P}=\frac{KxQ}{(r^2+x^2)^{3/2}} \hat{i}$

If we put an electron on point P, then force on point e is :

$\vec{F}=-|e|\vec{E_P}$

$F= \frac{-eKQx}{(r^2+x^2)^{3/2}}= \frac{-eKQx}{r^3[1+\frac{x^2}{r^2}]^{3/2}}$

If r >> x , then $\frac{x^2}{r^2} \approx 0$

Then, $\frac{-eKQ}{r^3}x$

$ma =\frac{-eKQ}{r^3}x$

$a =\frac{-eKQ}{mr^3}x$

Compare, a = -ω²x

We get,

$\omega^2 = \frac{eKQ}{R^3m}$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{eKQ}{r^3m}}$

$2 \pi f = \sqrt{\frac{eKQ}{r^3m}}$

$f = \frac{1}{2 \pi}\sqrt{\frac{eKQ}{mr^3}}$

Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the eq

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min

Explanation:

Given;

Boyle's law, PV = C

where;

P is pressure of the gas

V is volume of the gas

C is constant

Differentiate this equation using product rule:

$V\frac{dp}{dt} +P\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d(C)}{dt}$

Given;

$\frac{dP}{dt}$ (increasing pressure rate of the gas) = 40 kPa/min

V (volume of the gas) = 600 cm³

P (pressure of the gas) = 150 kPa

Substitute in these values in the differential equation above and calculate the rate at which the volume is decreasing ( $\frac{dv}{dt}$ );

(600 x 40) + (150 x $\frac{dv}{dt}$ ) = 0

$\frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{(600*40)}{150} = -160 \ cm^3/min$

Therefore, the volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min
