A common small-molecular weight (and therefore fast diffusing for an organic molecule) ingredient in perfumes is vanillin, the p

rimary component of vanilla bean extract (molecular weight = 152). the d for vanillin in air is 0.114 cm2/s. if i open a bottle of vanilla on the other side of the room 3 meters away, and the air is still so there is no convection, about how long would i have to wait before i could expect to smell the vanilla?

Answer:

2.54 seconds

Explanation:

Gathering the data:

let molecular weight = 152 g/mol

diffusion coefficient = 0.114 cm²/s

Distance = 3 meters

The most important thing to know is Fick's Law of diffusion. The law states that the flux is directly proportional to the concentration gradient. In other words

where dc = change in concentration

            D = diffusion coefficient

            Dx = change in the distance, cm

solving:

j = dc/3 (-0.114)

 this gives t = 2.54 seconds

A uniformly accelerated car passes three equally spaced traffic signs. The signs are separated by a distance d = 25 m. The car p
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a) v_{1}=\frac{x_{2}-x_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  }=\frac{(2(\frac{25}{3})-\frac{25}{3} )m}{3.9s-1.3s}  =3.2051 \frac{m}{s}

b) v_{2}=\frac{x_{3}-x_{2}  }{t_{3}-t_{2}  }=\frac{(25-2(\frac{25}{3}) )m}{5.5s-3.9s}  =5.2083 \frac{m}{s}

c) a=\frac{v_{2}-v_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  } =\frac{5.2083m/s-3.2051m/s}{5.5s-3.9s} =1.252 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Explanation:

<em><u>The knowable variables are </u></em>

d_{t}=25m

t_{1}=1.3 s

t_{2}=3.9 s

t_{3}=5.5 s

Since the three traffic signs are <u>equally spaced</u>, the <u>distance between each sign is \frac{25}{3} m</u>

a) v_{1}=\frac{x_{2}-x_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  }=\frac{(2(\frac{25}{3})-\frac{25}{3} )m}{3.9s-1.3s}  =3.2051 \frac{m}{s}

b) v_{2}=\frac{x_{3}-x_{2}  }{t_{3}-t_{2}  }=\frac{(25-2(\frac{25}{3}) )m}{5.5s-3.9s}  =5.2083 \frac{m}{s}

Since we know the velocity in two points and the time the car takes to pass the traffic signs

c) a=\frac{v_{2}-v_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  } =\frac{5.2083m/s-3.2051m/s}{5.5s-3.9s} =1.252 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

A balloon drifts 140m toward the west in 45s ; then the wind suddenly changes and the balloon flies 90m toward the east in the n
Bogdan [553]

Answer: 140 m

Explanation:

Let's begin by stating clear that motiont is the change of position of a body at a certain time. So, during this motion, the balloon will have a trajectory and a displacement, being both different:

The<u> trajectory</u> is <u>the path followed by the body, the distance it travelled</u> (is a scalar quantity).  

The displacement is <u>the distance in a straight line between the initial and final position</u> (is a vector quantity).  

So, according to this, the distance the balloon traveled during the first 45 s (its trajectory) is 140 m.

But, if we talk about displacement, we have to draw a straight line between the initial position of the balloon (point 0) to its final position (point 90 m).  Being its displacement 95 m.

Suppose you are designing an amplifier and loudspeaker system to use at a rock concert. You want to make it as loud as possible.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer is given below

Explanation:

  • Audio power amplifiers are found in all types of sound systems, including sound reinforcement, public address and home audio systems, as well as musical instrument amplifiers such as guitar amplifiers.
  • This is the last electronic step in the general audio playback series before sending the signal to the loudspeaker.  So when we want maximum volume or loud sound, we have to get it with maximum output and high input and low output impedance

An older camera has a lens with a focal length of 60mm and uses 34-mm-wide film to record its images. Using this camera, a photo
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

24.71 mm

Explanation:

Distance is proportional to focal length, so

d∝f

which means

\frac{d'_1}{d'_2}=\frac{f_1}{f_2}

Magnification of first lens

M_2=-\frac{d'_1}{d_1}

                   and

M_2=\frac{h'_1}{h_1}

Similarly, magnification of second lens

M_2=-\frac{d'_2}{d_1}

                   and

M_2=\frac{h'_2}{h_1}

From the above equations we get

\frac{M_1}{M_2}=\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}

                   and

\frac{M_1}{M_2}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}

which means,

\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}

and

\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}=\frac{f_1}{f_2}

So, we get

\frac{f_1}{f_2}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}\\\Rightarrow f_2=f_1\times\frac{h_2'}{h'_1}\\\Rightarrow f_2=60\times\frac{14}{34}=24.71\ mm

∴ Focal length should this camera's lens is 24.71 mm
