Answer:

The diameter of the needle is <u>4.675 cm</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Volume flow rate is, \dot V=103\ cm^3

Velocity of air expelled by pump is, v=6\ cm/s

Let the area of the needle be 'A' cm² and the diameter be 'd' cm.

We know that, volume flow rate of the air expelled by pump is given as the product of the needle's area and velocity of air flowing through that area.

Therefore, volume flow rate is given as:

\dot V=A\times v\\\\103=A\times 6\\\\6A=103\\\\A=\frac{103}{6}\ cm^2

Now, considering the needle to be circular, area of the needle can be written as:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\\frac{103}{6}=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\d^2=\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}\\\\d=\sqrt{\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}}\\\\d=4.675\ cm

Therefore, the diameter of the needle is 4.675 cm.

Leya [2.2K]

A diverging lens is used to permit clear vision of an object placed at infinity. The focal length of the lens is -100 cm.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length is half of the radius of curvature of the focal lens.

By the lens maker formula,

1/f = 1/v +1/u

where, v is the image distance and u is the object distance.

Give, the object is at infinity and the image must form at 100 cm, the the focal length will be

1/f = 1/ -100 + 1/∞

f = -100 cm

The focal length must be -100 cm for the diverging lens.

The second-order rate constants for the reaction of oxygen atoms ·with aromatic hydrocarbons have been measured (R. Atkinson and
Blizzard [7]

Answer:  Frequency factor  A = 8 × 10⁹

activation energy Ea = 15.5 KJ/Mol

Explanation: to begin, let us first define the parameters given;

K₁ = 1.44 × 10⁷dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

K₂ = 3.03 × 10⁷ dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

K₃ = 6.9 × 10 dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

also T₁ = 300.3 K

T₂ = 341.2 K

T₃ = 392.2 K

we know that;

㏑ K₂ / K₁ = Ea/R [1/T₁ -1/T₂]

where R is given as 8.314 J/mol-k

Ea = activation energy

K₁, K₂ = rate constant

T₁, T₂ = Temperature

therefore, ㏑ (3.03 × 10⁷/ 1.44 × 10⁷) = Ea / 8.314 [1/300.3 - 1/341.2]

this gives Ea = 15496.16 J/Mol ≈ 15.5 KJ /Mol

∴ Ea = 15.5 KJ/ Mol

also given that K = A e⁻∧Ea/RT

here A = frequency factor

∴ 6.9 × 10⁷ = A e⁻ ∧(15496.16/8.314 × 392.2)

A = 7.99 × 10⁹ = 8 × 10⁹

A baseball is hit into the air with a velocity of 27 m/s. How high does it go?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a baseball is hit into the air with a velocity of 27 m/s, we want to determine the maximum height of the ball. Using the projecile formula;

Max height H = u²/2g

u is the initial velocity of the body = 27m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

H = 27²/2(9.81)

H = 729/19.62

H = 37.16m

Hence the ball went 37.16m high
