Answer:

The value is  P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The initial pressure is  P_1 = 14\  psla

  The initial temperature is  T_1 =  50 \ F = (50 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 = 283  \  K

   The final temperature is  T_2 =  320 \ F = (320 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 =433  \  K

Generally the equation for adiabatic process is mathematically represented as

         PT^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  Constant

=>      P_1T_1^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  P_2T_2^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} }

Generally for a monoatomic gas  \gamma =  \frac{5}{3}

So

           14 * 283^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} } =P_2 * 433^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} }

=>       14 * 283^{-2.5} =P_2 * 433^{-2.5}

=>       P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Using an example, explain how being able to understand scientific principles and think scientifically can help you solve problem
crimeas [40]

One example is that when their food catches fire in a cooking pot or pan, it is advisable to smother the fire by covering the fire with a blanket rather than douse the fire with water. DOeing the later will only aggravate the fire. Knowledge of basic science dictates that oil and water are immiscible liquids the oil will continue to burn even as the water is poured into the oil. More so, as the water violently evaporates due to the heat, it spreads the burning oil and hence spreads the fire.

A 2.3 kg , 20-cm-diameter turntable rotates at 110 rpm on frictionless bearings. Two 460 g blocks fall from above, hit the turnt
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The correct solution is "64 RPM".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

M = 2.3 kg

Diameter,

D = 20 cm

i.e.,

   = 0.2 m

Rotates at,

N = 110 rpm

Mass of block,

m = 460 g

i.e.,

   = 0.46 kg

According to angular momentum's conservation,

⇒  I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2

then,

⇒  I_1=\frac{1}{2}MR_2

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      =\frac{1}{2}\times 2.3\times (0.1)^2

⇒      =\frac{1}{2}\times 0.023

⇒      =0.0115 \ kg \ m^2

Now,

⇒  I_2=I_1+2mR^2

        =0.0115+2\times 0.46\times (0.1)^2

        =0.0115+0.0092

        =0.02 \ kg \ m^2

then,

⇒  0.0115\times 110=0.02\omega_2

⇒              1.265=0.02\omega_2

⇒                  \omega_2=\frac{1.265}{0.02}

⇒                       =63.25 \ or \ 64 \ RPM
