A car is driving east at 120. km/h from Toronto to Ottawa. The distance between the two cities is 425.5 km, how long will it tak
Ket [755]

Answer:

The time it will take for the driver to reach Ottawa is 3 hours 32 minutes and 45 seconds

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Speed of the car = 120 km/h

Distance from Toronto to Ottawa = 425.5 km

The formula for speed is given as follows;

Speed = Distance/Time

Therefore, to find the time duration it takes from Toronto to Ottawa, we have;

Time duration = Distance from Toronto to Ottawa/(Speed of the car)

The time duration = 425.5/120 = 3.54583 hours = 212.75 min = 12765 seconds

The time it takes from Toronto to Ottawa while driving at 425.5 km/h = 12765 seconds.

Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. The o
earnstyle [38]

The correct answer is Option C) Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.


As the coefficient of absorption would define the energy present in the reflected wave, the material C has the highest percentage of absorption i.e. 62% and would be best suitable to make a sound proof room.

A 1.50-m cylinder of radius 1.10 cm is made of a complicated mixture of materials. Its resistivity depends on the distance x fro
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Resistance = 3.35*10^{-4} Ω

Explanation:

Since resistance R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

whereas \rho(x) = a + bx^2

resistivity is given for two ends. At the left end resistivity is 2.25* 10^{-8} whereas x at the left end will be 0 as distance is zero. Thus

2.25*10^{-8} = a + b(0)^2\\ 2.25*10^{-8} = a + 0 \\2.25*10^{-8} = a

At the right end x will be equal to the length of the rod, so x = 1.50\\8.50*10^{-8} = (2.25*10^{-8}) + ( b* (1.50)^2 )\\8.50*10^{-8} - (2.25*10^{-8}) = b*2.25\\\frac{6.25*10^{-8}}{2.25}  = b\\b = 2.77 *10^{-8}

Thus resistance will be R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

where A = π r^2

so,

R = \frac{8.50*10^{-8} * 1.50}{3.14*(1.10*10^{-2})^2} \\R=3.35 * 10 ^{-4}

An ideal gas is contained in a vessel at 300 K. The temperature of the gas is then increased to 900 K. (i) By what factor does t
Dahasolnce [82]

The question is missing some parts. Here is the complete question.

An ideal gas is contained in a vessel at 300K. The temperature of the gas is then increased to 900K.

(i) By what factor does the average kinetic energy of the molecules change, (a) a factor of 9, (b) a factor of 3, (c) a factor of \sqrt{3}, (d) a factor of 1, or (e) a factor of \frac{1}{3}?

Using the same choices in part (i), by what factor does each of the following change: (ii) the rms molecular speed of the molecules, (iii) the average momentum change that one molecule undergoes in a colision with one particular wall, (iv) the rate of collisions of molecules with walls, and (v) the pressure of the gas.

Answer: (i) (b) a factor of 3;

              (ii) (c) a factor of \sqrt{3};

              (iii) (c) a factor of \sqrt{3};

             (iv) (c) a factor of \sqrt{3};

              (v) (e) a factor of 3;

Explanation: (i) Kinetic energy for ideal gas is calculated as:

KE=\frac{3}{2}nRT

where

n is mols

R is constant of gas

T is temperature in Kelvin

As you can see, kinetic energy and temperature are directly proportional: when tem perature increases, so does energy.

So, as temperature of an ideal gas increased 3 times, kinetic energy will increase 3 times.

For temperature and energy, the factor of change is 3.

(ii) Rms is root mean square velocity and is defined as

V_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3k_{B}T}{m} }

Calculating velocity for each temperature:

For 300K:

V_{rms1}=\sqrt{\frac{3k_{B}300}{m} }

V_{rms1}=30\sqrt{\frac{k_{B}}{m} }

For 900K:

V_{rms2}=\sqrt{\frac{3k_{B}900}{m} }

V_{rms2}=30\sqrt{3}\sqrt{\frac{k_{B}}{m} }

Comparing both veolcities:

\frac{V_{rms2}}{V_{rms1}}= (30\sqrt{3}\sqrt{\frac{k_{B}}{m} }) .\frac{1}{30} \sqrt{\frac{m}{k_{B}} }

\frac{V_{rms2}}{V_{rms1}}=\sqrt{3}

For rms, factor of change is \sqrt{3}

(iii) Average momentum change of molecule depends upon velocity:

q = m.v

Since velocity has a factor of \sqrt{3} and velocity and momentum are proportional, average momentum change increase by a factor of

(iv) Collisions increase with increase in velocity, which increases with increase of temperature. So, rate of collisions also increase by a factor of \sqrt{3}.

(v) According to the Pressure-Temperature Law, also known as Gay-Lussac's Law, when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, pressure and temperature are directly proportional. So, when temperature increases by a factor of 3, Pressure also increases by a factor of 3.

What evidence contradicts the theory that moving two-ton stones was physically impossible for the egyptians, and must have been
SOVA2 [1]
Archaeological evidence shows that Egyptians worked together to build the pyramids. Remains of quarries and ancient tools suggest that large slabs were created from rock beds. The slabs were placed on sleds and pulled to the building site. To make this process easier, men most likely poured oil on the roadway. This process is depicted in tomb paintings that date back to 1900 BCE.
