Outline 3 disadvantages and advantage of water and alcohol as a template liquid​

Answers

Answer:

Advantages of mercury as a thermometric liquid.

-It is a good conductor of heat and therefore the whole liquid reaches the temperature of the surroundings quickly.

-It does not wet (cling to the sides of) the tube.

-It has a high boiling point

-It expands uniformly (linear expansion) and responds quickly to temperature changes, hence is sensitive.

-It has a visible meniscus.

Disadvantages

-Mercury is very poisonous.

-its expansively is fairly low

-it is expensive

-It has a high freezing point therefore it cannot be used in places where the temperature gets very low.

Alcohol has a thermometric fluid

-Alcohol expands uniformly.

-It has a low freezing point (-115 degreecentigrade) therefore it is very suitable for place where the temperature gets very low.

-It has a large expansively

-It is an easily available cheap liquid, which is safe to use

Disadvantages of alcohol

-it wets the tube

-it has a low boiling point (cannot be used in places with high temperatures)

-it does not react quickly to changes in temperature

-It needs to be dyed, since it's colourless.

Disadvantages of water

-Water has high specific heat capacity. So it cannot be used for measuring small temperature differences.

A 70 ft rope hangs from a helicopter above this room. The rope has a mass per unit length of 2 lb/ft. In order to be rescued from this exam the helicopter must pull you up and out of the room to safety. Assume that you weigh 120 lbs. How much work will it take get you safely away from this test

Answers

Answer:

The work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the rope, L = 70 ft

mass per unit length of the rope, μ = 2 lb/ft

your mass, W = 120 lbs

mass of the 70 ft rope  = 2 lb/ft x 70 ft

                                         = 140 lbs.

Total mass to be pulled to the helicopter, M = 120 lbs  + 140 lbs  

                                                                       = 260 lbs

The work done is calculated from work-energy theorem as follows;

W = Mgh

where;

g is acceleration due gravity = 32.17 ft/s²

h is height the total mass is raised = length of the rope = 70 ft

W = 260 Lb x 32.17 ft/s²  x 70 ft

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²

1 lb.ft²/s² = 0.0421 J

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²  = 2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Therefore, the work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.

b. (iii), (i), (ii)
c. (ii), (iii), (i)
d. (i), (ii), (iii)
e. (iii), (ii), (i)
f. (ii), (i), (iii)

Answers

Answer:

e)

Explanation:

Let's get first the values of the currents for the three cases.

i)

The battery forms a series circuit with its internal resistance and the 1.4 Ω resistor. Since the current is the same at any point of the circuit, and the sum of all voltages along a closed circuit must be zero, we can apply Ohm's Law in each resistor, as follows:

        [tex]V = I*r_{i} + I*R_{1} (1)[/tex]

Replacing V, ri and R₁ by their values, we can solve for the current I as follows:

      [tex]I_{i} = \frac{V}{r_{int} + R_{i}} = \frac{1.5V}{0.1 \Omega + 1.4 \Omega} = 1.0 A (2)[/tex]

ii)

Since the voltage of the battery is 4.0 V (open circuit voltage), and it falls to 3.6 V when is connected to a 1.8Ω resistor, this means that the voltage through the resistor must be 3.6 V, due to the sum of all voltages along a closed circuit must be zero.So, we can find the current through the circuit, applying Ohm's Law to the 1.8Ω resistor, as follows:

       [tex]I_{ii} =\frac{V_{term} }{R_{ii} } =\frac{3.6V}{1.8 \Omega} = 2.0 A (3)[/tex]

iii)

Since the 12.0 V battery has a terminal voltage of 11.0 , this means that the voltage through the internal resistance of 0.2 Ω, must be 1.0 V.So we can find the current Iiii, applying Ohm's Law to the internal resistance value, as follows:

      [tex]I_{iii} =\frac{V-V_{term}}{r_{int} } =\frac{12.0 V- 11.0 V}{0.2 \Omega} =\frac{1.0V}{0.2\Omega} = 5.0 A (4)[/tex]

So, the highest current is the Iiii, followed by Iii and Ii, which is stated by e).

Within which type of system is the total energy conserved?

A. Isolated
B. Connected
C. Closed
D. Open

Answers

The total energy is conserved within isolated system.

How is energy conserved in an isolated system?

In an isolated system, there is no exchange of matter or energy with the surroundings. Therefore, the total energy within the system remains constant, meaning that energy is conserved within the system.

In contrast, in an open system, there can be an exchange of both matter and energy with the surroundings, so the total energy within the system is not necessarily conserved.

In a closed system, there can be an exchange of energy but not matter, so the total energy within the system is conserved as long as there is no work being done by or on the system. In a connected system, the term is not commonly used in the context of energy conservation.

When the violinist plays an open string (the full length) a 440 Hz A-note is heard. Determine the length of the string needed to play a 528 Hz note without adjusting the tension in the string. This is accomplished by pressing on the fingerboard at the appropriate location.

Answers

Answer:

= 0.517 m

Explanation:

This is a resonance exercise where the ends of the string are fixed, therefore it has a node of them, the fundamental (longest) wavelength created has the form

                λ = 2L

wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency

               v = λ f

               v = 2L f

let's calculate

                v = 2 0.50 440

                v = 440 m / s

since they indicate that the tension of the string does not change and the linear density of the string is constant, the speed of the wave also remains constant

               f =[tex]\frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

let's find the length for the new resonance frequency

               L = [tex]\ \frac{v}{2f}[/tex]

Thunder is a sound wave created

by a lightning strike. If it travels at

343 m/s, how much time does it

take to travel a mile (1610 m)?

(Unit = s)

Answers

Answer:

t = 9.38 s

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of the sound wave, v = 343 m/s

Distance, d = 1610 m

We need to find the time taken to travel a mile. The distance traveled by the sound is 2d. Using the formula for speed,

[tex]v=\dfrac{2d}{t}[/tex]

t is the time taken to travel a mile

So,

[tex]t=\dfrac{2d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 1610}{343}\\\\t=9.38\ s[/tex]

So, it will take 9.38 seconds.

Answer:

4.69s

Explanation:

The formula to find time is time = distance / velocity

Plug the numbers into the formula

So

1610 / 343

= 4.69s

A barrel contains 285 kg of water.
What is the volume of the water?
(Unit = m^3)

Answers

Answer:

285 Litre ( 1kg of water occupies 1 Litre )

which is identical to 285 dm^3 ie 285 cubes of length 10 cm

and as there are 10 of these linearly in 1 m then there are 10^3 = 1000 dm^3 in each m^3

giving a volume of 0.285 m^3

Of course if you KNEW that 1m^3 of water has a mass of 1000 kg then you would simply have said that the volume was 285/1000 m^3

The volume of the water will be  0.285 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

What is volume ?

A volume is simply defined as the amount of space occupied by any three-dimensional solid. These solids can be a cube, a cuboid, a cone, a cylinder or a sphere. Different shapes have different volumes. Volume is the measure of the capacity that an object holds.

A method in which the value of the unit (one) quantity is first obtained to find the value of any required quantity is called the unitary method. So , by finding the value volume of 1 kg water , we can find the volume of 285 kg water by simply multiplying it with the volume of 1kg water using unitary method

using unitary method

1000 kg of mass have volume of = 1[tex]m^{3}[/tex]

then , the volume of 1kg  will be = 1 / 1000  [tex]m^{3}[/tex]  

The volume of 285 kg will be =  (1 / 1000) * 285 = 0.285 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

Hence if a barrel contains 285 kg of water, then the volume of the water will be  0.285 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

work= ________J

Answers

Answer:

A) F_g = 26284.48 N

B) v = 7404.18 m/s

C) E = 19.19 × 10^(10) J

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of satellite; m = 3500 kg

Mass of the earth; M = 6 x 10²⁴ Kg

Earth circular orbit radius; R = 7.3 x 10⁶ m

A) Formula for the gravitational force is;

F_g = GmM/r²

Where G is gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^(-11) N.m²/kg²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

F_g = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 3500 × 6 x 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶)²

F_g = 26284.48 N

B) From the momentum principle, we have that the gravitational force is equal to the centripetal force.

Thus;

GmM/r² = mv²/r

Making v th subject, we have;

v = √(GM/r)

Plugging in the relevant values;

v = √(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 6 x 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶))

v = 7404.18 m/s

C) From the energy principle, the minimum amount of work is given by;

E = (GmM/r) - ½mv²

Plugging in the relevant values;

E = [(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 3500 × 6 × 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶)] - (½ × 3500 × 7404.18)

E = 19.19 × 10^(10) J

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 5m/s

Final velocity, v = 10m/s

Mass of bicyclist = 50kg

Mass of bicycle = 10kg

Total mass, Tm = 50 + 10 = 60kg

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}[/tex]

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

m represents mass measured in kilograms.

v represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

To find the total kinetic energy before accelerating simply means the kinetic energy due to the initial velocity and total mass;

[tex] T.K.E = \frac{1}{2}T_{m}U^{2}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

A water park has a slide that finishes with the rider flying horizontally of the bottom of the slide. The slide is designed to end 1.5 m above the water level, and the average rider is estimated to leave the bottom of the slide at 25 m/s. How far Horizontally will the rider travel from the bottom of the slide before hitting the water?

Answers

Answer:

25 m/s * √(1.5 m/g) ≈ 9.78 m

Explanation:

When effects of air resistance is neglected, the motion can be modeled as

x(t) =  25 m/s * t

y(t) = 1.5 m - g * t²

based on a coordinate system where the x axis is on the water level (modeled as a plane), y axis being parallel to the gravitational force and the point of origin sitting at the point on the water surface directly below the exit of the slide. The x value is the horizontal travel we’re interested in. Time t begins at the exit of the slide by this rider. g is the gravitational acceleration.

At the time when the rider hits water, we know y = 0.

0 = 1.5 m - g * t² ⇔ t = ±√(1.5 m/g)

Since we are only interested in the non-negative (not past) time range, it’s t = √(1.5 m/g)

The horizontal travel is thus:

x(√(1.5 m/g)) = 25 m/s * √(1.5 m/g) ≈ 25 * √(1.5/9.81) m ≈ 9.78 m
