Hey there!

In this case, it is possible to solve this problem by using the widely-known steam tables which show that at 90 °C, the pressure that produces a vapor-liquid mixture at equilibrium is about 70.183 kPa (Cengel, Thermodynamics 5th edition).

Moreover, for the calculation of the volume, it is necessary to calculate the volume of the vapor-liquid mixture, given the quality (x) it has:

x=\frac{m_{steam}}{m_{total}}

Thus, since 8 kg correspond to liquid water, 2 kg must correspond to steam, so that the quality turns out:

x=\frac{2kg}{10kg} =0.20

Now, at this temperature and pressure, the volume of a saturated vapor is  2.3593 m³/kg whereas that of the saturated liquid is 0.001036 m³/kg and therefore, the volume of the mixture is:

v=0.001036m^3/kg+0.2(2.3593-0.001036 )m^3/kg=0.4727m^3/kg

This means that the volume of the container will be:

V=10kg*0.4727m^3/kg\\\\V=4.73m^3

Regards!

Does the sun fuse hydrogen into helium or vice versa?
NikAS [45]

Hydrogen has the smaller, lighter, simpler nucleus.
Helium has the larger, heavier, more complex nucleus.
Hydrogen nuclei are fused to form helium nuclei. 
When that happens, energy is released.

A 20.0 kg crate sits at rest at the bottom of a 15.0-m-long ramp that is inclined at 34.0° above horizontal. A constant horizont
ankoles [38]

Answer:

987 joules, 3.01s

Explanation:

(A)

from the attached diagram

net force, Fnet, pulling the crate up the ramp is given by

Fnet = FcosФ - WsinФ - Fr

where FcosФ is the component of horizontal force 290N resolved parallel to the plane

WsinФ = mgsinФ = component of the weight of the crate resolved parallel to the plane

Fr = constant opposing frictional force

Fnet = 290cos34⁰ - 20 × 9.8 × sin34° - 65

Fnet = 240.421 - 109.602 - 65

Fnet = 65.82N

Work done on the crate up the ramp, W, is given by

W = Fnet × d (distance up the plane)

W = 65.819 × 15

W = 987.285 joules

W = 987 joules (to 3 significant Figures)

(B)

to calculate the time of travel up the ramp

we use the equation of motion

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where s = distance up the plane, 15m

u = Initial velocity of the crate, which is 0 for a body that is initially at rest

a = acceleration up the plane, given by

a = \frac{Fnet}{m}

where m = mass of the crate, 20 kg

now, a = \frac{65.819}{20} \\a = 3.291\frac{m^{2} }{s}

from, s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15 = 0*t + \frac{1}{2}* 3.291 * t^{2}

15 = 0 + 1.645t^{2}

15 = 1.645t^{2}

t = \sqrt{\frac{15}{1.645} }

t = 3.019

t = 3.01s (to 3 sig fig)

The Gibson family have bought tickets to the Christmas Market. There are 4 mothers, 2 grand-mothers and 4 daughters. What is the
koban [17]
The minimum number of tickets that could admit all of them is six (6).

This thing is impossible to explain in words, so I shall attempt it with a diagram:

Here are the six ladies:

       ( A )      ( B )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( C )      ( D )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( E )       ( F )  

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .

So look what we have now:

--  'A'  and  'B'  are the mothers of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the mothers.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the mothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
     There's the OTHER 2 mothers. 
 
--  'A'  and  'B'  are the grandmothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
    There's the 2 grandmothers.

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the daughters.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .
     There's the OTHER 2 daughters.

You want to know what ? !
The group is even bigger than THAT.
There are also 2 GRAND-daughters in the family ...  'E'  and  'F' .

So now you have a list of 12 people ! ... 4 mothers, 2 grandmothers,
4 daughters, and 2 grand-daughters ... and they all get in to the
Christmas Market with only six tickets.    Legally !

Such a deal !

Don't forget :  Christmas this year is also the first day of Chanukah !
                     All for the same price !
