The tank pressure is 5.08 kPa and the mass flow rate is 2.6 kg/s.

The given parameters:

<em>Throat area of the nozzle, </em> $A^*$ <em> = 10 cm² = 0.001 m²</em>
<em>The exit area of the nozzle, A = 28.96 cm² = 0.002896 m²</em>
<em>Air pressure at sea level = 101.325 kPa</em>

The ratio of the areas of the converging-diverging nozzle is calculated as follows;

$= \frac{A}{A^*} \\\\= \frac{0.002896}{0.001} \\\\= 2.896$

From supersonic isentropic table, at $\frac{A}{A^*} = 2.896$ , we can determine the following;

$M_e = 2.6 \ kg/s\\\\\frac{P_o}{P_e} = 19.954$

The tank pressure is calculated as follows;

$\frac{P_o}{P_e} = 19.954 \\\\P_e = \frac{P_o}{19.954} \\\\P_e = \frac{101.325 \ kPa}{19.954} \\\\P_e = 5.08 \ kPa$

Thus, the tank pressure is 5.08 kPa and the mass flow rate is 2.6 kg/s.

how do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate

professor190 [17]

While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

What is the gravitational force on a 70kg that is 6.38x10^6m above the earths surface

NARA [144]

Answer:

171.5 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force on an object due to the Earth is given by

$F=mg$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity at a certain height h above the Earth is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}$

where:

G is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

Here,

$h=6.38\cdot 10^6 m$

So the acceleration due to gravity is

$g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 6.38\cdot 10^6)^2}=2.45 m/s^2$

We know that the mass of the object is

m = 70 kg

So, the gravitational force on it is

$F=mg=(70)(2.45)=171.5 N$

Three joules of work is needed to shift 10 C of charge from one place to another. The potential difference between the places is

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.

Explanation:

Given

Work done W = 3J

Amount of Charge q = 10C

To determine

We need to determine the potential difference V between the places.

The potential difference between the two points can be determined using the formula

Potential Difference (V) = Work Done (W) / Amount of Charge (q)

or

$\:V\:=\:\frac{W}{q}$

substituting W = 3 and q = 10 in the formula

$V=\frac{3}{10}$

$V=0.3$ V

Therefore, the potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.

Light shined through a single slit will produce a diffraction pattern. Green light (565 nm) is shined on a slit with width 0.210

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:(a)9.685 mm

(b)4.184 mm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light $(\lambda )=565nm \approx 565\times 10^{-9}m$

Width of slit(b)=0.210

(a)Width of central maximum located 1.80m from slit

$=\frac{2\lambda L}{b}$

$=\frac{2\times 565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}$

=9.685 mm

(b)Width of the first order bright fringe

$Y_1=\frac{\lambda \times L}{b}$

$Y_1=\frac{565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}$

$Y_1=4.84mm$
