T o a stationary observer, a man jogs east at 2.5 m/s and a woman jogs west at 1.5 m/s. from the woman's frame of reference, what is the man's velocity? it is 4m/s east

Answer: 4 m/s (towards East)

Explanation:

The velocity of man jogging with respect to a stationary observer, Vm = +2.5 m/s (Eastwards)

The velocity of woman jogging with respect to a stationary observer, Vw = -1.5 m/s (Westwards)

In woman's frame of reference, the man would be jogging relatively faster in the opposite direction as she is in motion herself.

From the woman's frame of reference, the man's velocity:

Vmw = Vm-Vw = +2.5 m/s - (-1.5 m/s) = +4.0 m/s (Eastwards)

The temperature, T, of a gas is jointly proportional to the pressure P of the gas and the volume V occupied by the gas. Use C as
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

T=C*P*V

Explanation:

It is said that a variable - let's call 'y' -, is proportional to another - let's call it 'x' - if x and y are multiplicatively connected to a constant 'C'. It means that their product (x*y) can be always equaled to the constant 'C' or their division (\frac{x}{y}) can be always equaled to 'C'. The first case is the case of the inverse proportionality: It is said that x and y are inversely proportional if

x*y=C

The second case is the case of the direct proportionality: It is said that x and y are directly proportional if

\frac{x}{y} =C : x is directly proportional to y.

or

\frac{y}{x} =C : y is directly proportional to x.

Always that any text does not specify about directly or inversely proportionality, it is assumed to mean directly automatically.

For our case, we are said that the temperature T is proportional to the pressure P and the volume V (we assume that it means directly); it is a double proportionality but follows the same rules:

If T were just proportional to P, we would have:

\frac{T}{P} =C

If T were just proportional to V, we would have:

\frac{T}{V} =C

As T is proportional to both P and V, the right equation is:

\frac{T}{P*V}=C

In order to isolate the temperature, let's multiply (P*V) at each side of the equation:

\frac{T}{P*V}*(P*V)=C*(P*V)\\T=C*P*V

In 1993, Ileana Salvador of Italy walked 3.0 km in under 12.0 min. Suppose that during 115 m of her walk Salvador is observed to
dexar [7]

Answer:

t = 25 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 115 m

Initial speed, u = 4.2 m/s

Final speed, v = 5 m/s

We need to find the time taken in increasing the speed.

We know that,

Acceleration, a=\dfrac{v-u}{t} ....(1)

The third equation of kinematics is as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\\text{Put the value of a in above equation}\\\\v^2-u^2=2\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times d\\\\\because (a^2-b^2)=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\(v-u)(v+u)=\dfrac{2\times (v-u)d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{2d}{v+u}\\\\\text{Putting all the values}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 115}{4.2+5}\\\\t=25\ s

Hence, it will take 25 seconds to increase the speed.

The equilibrium fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver (Ag) at 600°C is 1 × 10-6. Calculate the number of vacancies
algol [13]

Answer :

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

Explanation:

Given,

Atomic mass of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Density of silver = 10.35 g/cm^3

Converting to g/m^3,

= 10.35 g/cm^3 × 10^6cm^3/m^3

= 10.35 × 10^6 g/m^3

Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10^23 atoms/mol

Fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver = 1 × 10^-6

Nag = (Na * Da)/Aag

Where,

Nag = Total number of lattice sites in Ag

Na = Avogadro's number

Da = Density of silver

Aag = Atomic weight of silver

= (6.022 × 10^23 × (10.35 × 10^6)/107.87

= 5.778 × 10^28 atoms/m^3

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^28 × 1 × 10^-6

= 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

U-238 has protons and146 neutrons. A particular isotope of plutonium has 94 protons, neutrons, and a mass number of 241. Thorium
enyata [817]

#1

^{238}U

so mass number = 238

mass number = protons + neutrons

given that

neutrons = 146

238 = protons + 146

protons = 92

#2

^{241}Pu

so mass number = 241

mass number = protons + neutrons

given that

Protons = 94

241 = 94 + neutrons

neutrons = 147

#3

^ATh

A = mass number

Protons = 90

Neutrons = 137

A = protons + Neutrons

A = 90 + 137 = 227
