A syringe containing 12.0 mL of dry air at 25 C is placed in a sterilizer and heated to 100.0 C. The syringe is sealed, but th
monitta

Answer:

15.01 Liters

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature = 25°C = 298.15 K

T₂ = Final temperature = 100°C = 373.15 K

V₁ = Initial volume = 12 mL

Here, pressure is constant so we apply Charles Law

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=\frac{V_1}{T_1}\times T_2\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=\frac{12}{298.15}\times 373.15\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=15.01 L

∴ Final volume at 100°C is 15.01 Liters.

A uniform wooden plank with a mass of 75kg and length of 5m is placed on top of a brick wall so that 1.5m of plank extends beyon
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

x₂ = 1.33 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the rotational equilibrium condition, where the counterclockwise rotations are positive and the zero of the reference system is placed at the turning point on the wall

            Στ = 0

            W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ = 0

where W₁ is the weight of the woman, W₂ the weight of the table.

Let's find the distances.

Since the table is homogeneous, its center of mass coincides with its geometric center, measured at zero.

           x₁ = 2.5 -1.5 = 1 m

The distance of the person is x₂ measured from the turning point, at the point where the board begins to turn the girl must be on the left side so her torque must be negative

            x₂ = \frac{M_1g  }{m_2 g} \ x_1

           

let's calculate

           x₂ = \frac{100}{75}  \ 1

           x₂ = 1.33 m

Which of the following creates an adhesive force that prevents separation of the parietal and visceral pleurae during ventilatio
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Negative intrapleural pressure is the correct answer

Explanation:

Intrapleural pressure is more subatmospheric in the uppermost part of the thorax than in the lowermost parts in the standing horse.

Air moves from a region of higher pressure to one of lower pressure.  Therefore, for air to be moved into or out of the lungs, a pressure difference between the atmosphere and the alveoli must be established. If there is no pressure difference, no airflow will occur.

Under normal circumstances, inspiration is accomplished by causing alveolar pressure to fall below atmospheric pressure. When the mechanics of breathing are being discussed, atmospheric pressure is conventionally referred to as 0 cm H2O, so lowering alveolar pressure below atmospheric pressure is known as negative-pressure breathing.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

The United States spends over $20 billion a year on space exploration through NASA. Do you think that this has been worth the co
-BARSIC- [3]

Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?
