Suppose that on a hot and sticky afternoon in the spring, a tornado passes over the high school. If the air pressure in the lab

(volume of 180m3) was 1.1 atm before the storm and 0.85 atm during the storm, to what volume would the laboratory try to expand in order to make up for the large pressure difference outside?
a. 190m3
b. 230m3
c. 1,800m3
d. 7,100m3

Answer:

232.9m³ (Option b. is the closest answer)

Explanation:

Given:

Air pressure in the lab before the storm, P₁ = 1.1atm

Air volume in the lab before the storm, V₁ = 180m³

Air pressure in the lab during the storm P₂ = 0.85atm

Air volume in the lab before the storm, V₂ = ?

Applying Boyle's law:    P₁V₁ = P₂V₂    (at constant temperature)

                          V_{2} = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{P_{2}}

                          V_{2} = \frac{1.1 * 180}{0.85}

                          V_{2} = \frac{198}{0.85}

                           V₂  = 232.9m³

The air volume in the laboratory that would expand in order to make up for the large pressure difference outside is 232.9m³

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend
Viefleur [7K]

a) we can answer the first part of this by recognizing the player rises 0.76m, reaches the apex of motion, and then falls back to the ground we can ask how

long it takes to fall 0.13 m from rest: dist = 1/2 gt^2 or t=sqrt[2d/g] t=0.175

s this is the time to fall from the top; it would take the same time to travel

upward the final 0.13 m, so the total time spent in the upper 0.15 m is 2x0.175

= 0.35s

b) there are a couple of ways of finding thetime it takes to travel the bottom 0.13m first way: we can use d=1/2gt^2 twice

to solve this problem the time it takes to fall the final 0.13 m is: time it

takes to fall 0.76 m - time it takes to fall 0.63 m t = sqrt[2d/g] = 0.399 s to

fall 0.76 m, and this equation yields it takes 0.359 s to fall 0.63 m, so it

takes 0.04 s to fall the final 0.13 m. The total time spent in the lower 0.13 m

is then twice this, or 0.08s

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

230 N

Explanation:

At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force  T  is given by the branch.

The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require

a centripetal force  in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows

T - mg = m v² / R

R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s

T =  mg -  mv² / R

T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60  { R is length of hand of ape. }

T = 83.3 + 145.06

= 228.36

= 230 N ( approximately )

Determine the acceleration due to gravity?
MissTica
That's a weird graph, but judging from the units the acceleration is the slope of the graph.

a = (0.8 - 0.3)/(0.16 - 0.055) = 4.76 m/s²

The oceans level is currently rising at about 2 mm per year at this rate in how many years will sea level be 3 m higher than now
lesantik [10]
(3 m) / (2 mm/yr) = (3,000mm)/(2mm/yr) = 1,500 yrs.
