The speed of sound in air changes with the temperature. When the temperature T is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the speed S of sound is

1087.5 feet per second. For each degree increase in temperature, the speed of sound increases by 1.1 feet per second. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (a) Explain why speed S is a linear function of temperature T. Because S always increases by 1.1 when T increases by 1 Correct: Your answer is correct. , S has a constant rate of change and is a linear function of T. Identify the slope of the function. 1.1 Correct: Your answer is correct. (b) Use a formula to express S as a linear function of T. S = Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. (c) Solve for T in the equation from part (b) to obtain a formula for temperature T as a linear function of speed S. T = (d) Explain in practical terms the meaning of the slope of the function you found in part (c). The slope of T as a linear function of S is , and this means that an increase in the speed of sound by 1 foot per second corresponds to an increase of degree in temperature.

Answer and Explanation:

A. We have temperature t = 32

Speed of sound, s = 1087.5

As t increases by 1⁰f speed increases by 1.2

So that

S = 1088.6

T= 33⁰f

We have 2 equations

1087.5 = k(32) + c

1088.6 = k(33) + c

Subtracting both equations

(33-32)k = 1088.6-1087.5

K = 1.1

b.). S = kT + c

1087.5 = 32(1.1) + c

Such that

C = 1052.3

Therefore

S = 1.1(t) + 1052.3

C.). S = 1.1t + 1052.3

We make t subject of the formula

T = s/1.1 - 1052.3/1.1

T = 0.90(s) - 956.3

D. This means that We have temperature to rise by 0.90 whenever speed is increased

At 213.1 K a substance has a vapor pressure of 45.77 mmHg. At 243.7 K it has a vapor pressure of 193.1 mm Hg. Calculate its heat
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

20.3125 kJ/mol

Explanation:

P_{i} = initial vapor pressure = 45.77 mm Hg

P_{f} = final vapor pressure = 193.1 mm Hg

T_{i} = initial temperature = 213.1 K

T_{f} = final temperature = 243.7 K

H = Heat of vaporization

Using the equation

ln\left ( \frac{P_{f}}{P_{i}} \right ) = \left ( \frac{-H}{R} \right )\left ( \frac{1}{T_{f}} - \frac{1}{T_{i}}\right)

ln\left ( \frac{193.1}{45.77} \right ) = \left ( \frac{-H}{8.314} \right )\left ( \frac{1}{243.7} - \frac{1}{213.1}\right)

H = 20312.5 J/mol

H = 20.3125 kJ/mol

A can of sardines is made to move along an x axis from x = 0.47 m to x = 1.20 m by a force with a magnitude given by F = exp(–8x
sattari [20]
If the force were constant or increasing, we could guess that the speed of the sardines is increasing. Since the force is decreasing but staying in contact with the can, we know that the can is slowing down, so there must be friction involved.
Work is the integral of (force x distance) over the distance, which is just the area under the distance/force graph.
The integral of exp(-8x) dx that we need is (-1/8)exp(-8x) evaluated from 0.47 to 1.20 .

I get 0.00291 of a Joule ... seems like a very suspicious solution, but for an exponential integral at a cost of 5 measly points, what can you expect. On the other hand, it's not really too unreasonable. The force is only 0.023 Newton at the beginning, and 0.000067 newton at the end, and the distance is only about 0.7 meter, so there certainly isn't a lot of work going on. The main question we're left with after all of this is: Why sardines ? ?

Alla [95]

Answer:

Kathmandu

Explanation:

As the altitude get higher, the gravitational pull of the earth on the object increases, therefore, the mass is higher up above.
