Answer: Machanical advantage of the machine is 1.86

Explanation: Machanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the Force to overcome which is the load in this case 24kg * 10= 240N to the force exerted(Effort) to overcome the load in this case 129N.

So, we have

MA = load/effort

= 240N/129N

= 1.86.

1. An excited lithium atom emits a red light with wavelength a = 671nm. What is the corresponding photon energy? hc (6.63 x 10-3
Rudiy27

Answer:

 E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation

          E = h f

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

          c = λ f

we substitute

          E = h c /λ

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

          λ = 671 nm = 671 10⁻⁹ m

let's calculate

          E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ /671 10⁻⁹

          E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

Classify the properties as extensive or intensive: mass density; color volume; total energy; temperature; melting point
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Intensive properties

Density

Color

temperature

Melting point

Extensive properties

Mass

Volume

Total Energy

Explanation:

Intensive properties:  In Physics, Intensive properties which are not depend of the amount of matter in a sample, It only depends of the type of matter, some examples of intensive properties are:

1. Density: It is a intensive property. It can explain better with a example:  the water density is 1000 kg/m3, So if we have 1 liter or 1000 liters of water  the density will be the same for the two samples.

2. Color: Solid sodium chloride is white. If you have 2 samples the first recipient  with 2 kilograms of NaCl and the second with 10 kilograms of NaCl. The color of the substance does not depend on the amount of the substance.

As was mentioned before the same theory is applied to temperature and melting point concepts.

On the other hand,

Extensive properties are properties of the matter which depend on the amount of matter that is present in the system or sample. some examples are:

1. Mass: It is a property that measures the amount of matter that an object contains. For example, 10 kilograms of solid Copper contains a higher mass than 2 kilograms of the same metal.  

2. Volume: It is a property which measures the space occupied by an object or a substance. For example, the space occupied by a glass of milk is lower than the space occupied by a bottle of milk, Then the volume of the glass of milk is lower than the volume of the bottle of milk.

3. Finally the total energy is contained in molecules and atoms that constituted systems  so, if the amount of matter increases the number of molecules too, then the total energy will increase.

I hope it helps you.

already did the work, i just need someone to see if i did the tangent line right? the line has to touch the point 0.6! thank you
Dmitrij [34]

The tangent looks good.

The curve is a bit crooked, at the 0.9 and 1.

But overall, cool graph.

Some of the following statements regarding heat exchangers is (are) wrong, namely (A) Heat exchangers are devices where two movi
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

A,B,D,E are wrong

(A) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams are mixed together (B) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange mass (D) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange mechanical work without mixing together (E) There is no heat transfer between the two fluids of an insulated heat exchanger

Explanation:

A heat exchanger can be regarded as a system that bring about transfer heat between two or more than two fluids. It can function in cooling process and heating processes, the fluids involves in this process can have a solid wall to separate them so as to prevent mixing, direct contact could also be utilized. The mechanism is making hot gas jets which could fire upward over a glowing water that is passing through pipes, as water moves along the pipe, heat energy is been absorbed and there is heating up i.e heat is transferred. One is cooked the other is heated up. It is very essential to insulate the whole steam system along with heat exchangers so that energy could be saved and the temperature of the surface would be at safe-to-touch range and also steam quality could be maintained. The types of heat exchanger we have are;

✓Shell and tube heat exchangers.

✓Condensers, evaporators, and boilers

✓Double pipe heat exchangers.

✓Plate heat exchangers.

It should be noted Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange heat (thermal energy) without mixing together

6.A string of 100 Christmas lights requires 4 Volts and 2 Amps for a single bulb to light up. (a) When one light on the sting go
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given,

V = 4 volts

A = 2 amps

a)

In the first instance, one light on the sting goes out and the whole string of lights no longer turns on. This means that the circuit is a series circuit.

b) Total voltage = 4 x 100 = 400 V

The current passing through each bulb is the same. Thus

Total Current = 2 Amps

Recall, V = IR

R = V/I

Thus,

Resistance = 400/2

Resistance = 200 ohms

c) In this case, one light goes out on the string all other lights still turn on. This means that the circuit is a parallel circuit

d)

The voltage is the same

Total voltage = 4 volts

Total current = 2 x 100 = 200 amps

Total resistance = 4/200

Total resistance = 0.02 ohms
