Answer:

1 m = 39.37 in = 39.37/12 ft = 3.28 ft

V = 1145 k/hr = 1145k/hr * 6076 ft/k = 6957020 ft / hr

V = 6957020 ft/hr / 3600 s/hr = 1933 ft/sec

V = 1933 ft/sec / (3.28 ft / m) = 589 m/s

Check:

88 ft/sec = 60 mph

(1145 k/hr * 6076 ft / k) 3600 sec/hr = 1933 ft/sec = 589 m/s

1933 ft/sec / (88 ft/sec) * 60 mph = 1318 mph

Also, 1318 / 1145 = 6076 / 5280 as it should

A certain ideal gas has molar heat capacity at constant volume CV. A sample of this gas initially occupies a volume V0 at pressu

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

The processes are described on the image attached below. The isobaric process consists of an horizontal line, the adiabatic expansion is described by a polytropic curve:

$P_{2} \cdot V_{2}^{\gamma} = P_{3} \cdot V_{3}^{\gamma}$

Where:

$\gamma = \frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}$

$\gamma = 1 + \frac{R}{c_{v}}$

Final pressure is:

$P_{3} = P_{2}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{2}}{V_{3}} \right)^{\gamma}$

$P_{3} = P_{o}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma}$

$P_{3} = \frac{P_{o}}{2^{\gamma}}$

Comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air,

aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

The speed of sound wave only depends on the property of the medium like density and the bulk modulus of the medium particle. The speed of sound also depends on the temperature of the medium.

On comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air, the speed of the wave doesn’t depend on the frequency or the wavelength. Hence, the correct option is (1).

A potential difference of 53 mV is developed across the ends of a 12.0-cm-longwire as it moves through a 0.27 T uniform magnetic

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The angle between the magnetic field and the wire’s velocity is 19.08 degrees.

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference, V = 53 mV

Length of the wire, l = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.27 T

Speed of the wire, v = 5 m/s

Due to its motion, an emf is induced in the wire. It is given by :

$\epsilon=Blv\sin\theta$

Here,

$\theta$ is the angle between magnetic field and the wire’s velocity

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{\epsilon}{Blv}\\\\\sin\theta=\dfrac{53\times 10^{-3}}{0.27\times 0.12\times 5}\\\\\sin\theta=0.327\\\\\theta=19.08^{\circ}$

So, the angle between the magnetic field and the wire’s velocity is 19.08 degrees.
