Many birds can attain very high speeds when diving. Using radar, scientists measured the altitude of a barn swallow in a vertica

l dive; it dropped 208 m in 3.0 s. The mass of the swallow was estimated to be 0.018 kg, and its cross-section area as 5.6×10−4m2. What was the drag coefficient for this swallow as it dove?

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

Explanation:

The corrosion rate is the rate of material remove.The formula for calculating CPR or corrosion penetration rate is

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

K= constant depends on the system of units used.

W= weight =485 g

D= density =7.9 g/cm³

A = exposed specimen area =100 in² =6.452 cm²

K=534 to give CPR in mpy

K=87.6  to give CPR in mm/yr

mpy

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{534\times( 485g)\times( 10^3mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3) \times (100in^2)\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

        =37.4mpy

mm/yr

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{87.6\times (485g)\times (10^3 mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3)\times (100in^2)\times(2.54cm/in)^2\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

       =0.952 mm/yr

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

A flute player hears four beats per second when she compares her note to an 880 Hz tuning fork (note A). She can match the frequ
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

884Hz

Explanation:

Beats is the absolute difference between two frequencies therefore

Beats = f1-f2

4=f1-880

F1=880+4

F1=884Hz

What is the change in internal energy (in J) of a system that does 4.50 ✕ 105 J of work while 3.20 ✕ 106 J of heat transfer occu
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

-3.25\times 10^6 J

Explanation:

We are given that

Work done by the system=4.5\times 10^5 J

Heat transfer into the system=U_1=3.2\times 10^6 J

Heat transfer to the environment=U_2=6\times 10^6 J

We have to find the change in internal energy

By first law of thermodynamics

\Delta Q=\Delta U+w

\Delta Q=U_1-U_2=3.2\times 10^6-6\times 10^6=-2.8\times 10^6J

Substitute the values then we get

-2.8\times 10^6=\Delta U+4.5\times 10^5

\Delta U=-2.8\times 10^6-4.5\times 10^5=-28\times 10^5-4.5\times 10^5=-32.5\times 10^5=-3.25\times 10^6 J

Hence, the change in internal energy =-3.25\times 10^6 J

. A 40.0-kg child standing on a frozen pond throws a 0.500-kg stone to the east with a speed of 5.00 m/s. Neglecting friction be
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg

At a direction of 5m/s

Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula

m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone

m_1 Is mass of boy

v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy

m_2 is mass of stone

v_2 is the velocity of stone

Then,

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5

40•v_1 = -2.5

v_1 = -2.5 / 40

v_1 = -0.0625 m/s

The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s
