A vector that is 1 cm long represents a displacement of 21 km. How many kilometers are represented by a 3-cm vector drawn to the

same scale?

The 3 cm vector represents 63 km.

Since a 1 cm long vector represents a displacement of 21 km, we need to find the number of kilometers a 3 cm vector represents.

Let x represent the displacement the 3 cm vector represents.

By ratio, we have 1 cm: 21 km = 3 cm : x

So, 1 cm/21 km = 3 cm/x

Cross-multiplying, we have

x × 1 cm = 3 cm × 21 km

x = 3 cm × 21 km/1 cm

x = 63 km

So, the 3 cm vector represents a displacement of 63 km.

Carbon dioxide enters an adiabatic nozzle steadily at 1 MPa, 518 oC, and mass flow rate of 5,322 kg/h and exits the system at 96

Orlov [11]

Answer:

The velocity at the nozzle at inlet $V_{1}$ = 3584 $\frac{m}{sec}$

Explanation:

Pressure at inlet $P_{1}$ = 1 × $10^{6}$ Pa

Temperature at inlet $T_{1}$ = 518 ° c = 791 K

Mass flow rate = $\frac{5322}{60}$ $\frac{kg}{sec}$ = 88.7

Gas constant for carbon die oxide is R = 189 $\frac{J}{kg k}$

Mass flow rate inside the nozzle is given by the formula = $\frac{P_{1} }{R T_{1} }$ × $A_{1}$ × $V_{1}$

⇒ $P_{1}$ = = 1 × $10^{6}$ Pa

⇒ R $T_{1}$ = 791 × 189 = 149499 $\frac{J}{kg}$

⇒ $A_{1}$ = 0.0037 $m^{2}$

Put all the above values in above formula we get,

⇒ 88.7 = $\frac{10^{6} }{149499}$ × 0.0037 × $V_{1}$

⇒ $V_{1}$ = 3584 $\frac{m}{sec}$

This is the velocity at the nozzle at inlet.

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.

Mariulka [41]

<u>Answer:</u>

The matter does not move in solid state but vibrates.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atoms inside the matter cannot move or shift their positions without any external force but makes some small vibration movements. Generally in solids, the particles are bound by the attractive forces acting in between the atoms inside the matter.

The small vibrations that are happening inside the matter are because of the external factors like temperature. The increase in temperature raises the kinetic energy of the atoms inside and makes them move faster and this results in the vibration of the matter.

Describe each class of lever and explain to characteristics of each

Nataly [62]

-- Class I lever

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage can be anything, more or less than 1 .

Example: a see-saw

-- Class II lever

The load is between the fulcrum and the effort.

The Mechanical Advantage is always greater than 1 .

Example: a nut-cracker, a garlic press

-- Class III lever

The effort is between the fulcrum and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage is always less than 1 .

I can't think of an example right now.

Suppose the gas resulting from the sublimation of 1.00 g carbon dioxide is collected over water at 25.0◦c into a 1.00 l containe

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

0.56 atm

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the number of moles of the gas.

We know that

m = 1.00 g is the mass of the gas

$Mm=44.0 g/mol$ is the molar mass of the carbon dioxide

So, the number of moles of the gas is

$n=\frac{m}{M_m}=\frac{1.00 g}{44.0 g/mol}=0.023 mol$

Now we can find the pressure of the gas by using the ideal gas equation:

$pV=nRT$

where

p is the pressure

$V=1.00 L = 0.001 m^3$ is the volume

n = 0.023 mol is the number of moles

$R=8.314 J/mol K$ is the gas constant

$T=25.0^{\circ}+273=298 K$ is the temperature of the gas

Solving the equation for p, we find

$p=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{(0.023 mol)(8.314 J/mol K)(298 K)}{0.001 m^3}=5.7 \cdot 10^4 Pa$

And since we have

$1 atm = 1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa$

the pressure in atmospheres is

$p=\frac{5.7\cdot 10^4 Pa}{1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa/atm}=0.56 atm$
