Given that the lenth write steel l =3.80m fastened celling mass m= 54.0kg  
v = s/t 
 v = 3.8/0.0492 
 v = 77.23 m/s  
 now, the formula for speed in a wire is 
 v = ( T/ÎĽ )^1/2  
 where T is the tension in the string and ÎĽ is the mass pee unit length.  
 v = ( Tl/m )^1/2 .......(replace ÎĽ with m/l) 
 now T = 550N  
 v = [ 550(3.8)/m ]^1/2 
 squaring both sides  
 v^2 = 550(3.8)/m 
 v^2 = 2090/m 
 putting the value of v calculated above and solving 
  m =0.35 kg

Water is boiled at 300 kPa pressure in a pressure cooker. The cooker initially contains 3 kg of water. Once boiling started, it
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure of boiled water = 300 kPa

Mass of water = 3 kg

Time = 30 min

Dryness friction of water = 0.5

Suppose, what is the average rate of energy transfer to the cooker?

We know that,

The specific enthalpy of evaporate at 300 kPa pressure

h_{f}=561.47\ kJ/kg

h_{fg}=2163.8\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at initial state

h_{1}=h_{f}

h_{1}=561.47\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at final state

Using formula of enthalpy

h_{2}=h_{f}+xh_{fg}

Put the value into the formula

h_{2}=561.47+0.5\times2163.8

h_{2}=1643.37\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the rate of energy transfer to the cooker

Using formula of rate of energy

Q=\dfrac{m(h_{2}-h_{1})}{t}

Put the value into the formula

Q=\dfrac{3\times(1643.37-561.47)}{30\times60}

Q=1.80\ kW

Hence, The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

The loudness of a sound is inversely proportional to the square of your distance from the source of the sound. if your friend is
kirill [66]
Let loudness be L, distance be d, and k be the constant of variation such that the equation that would best represent the given above is,
                    L = k/(d^2)
For Case 1,
                       L1 = k/(d1^2)
For Case 2,
                       L2 = k/((d1/4)^2)
For k to be equal, L1 = 16L2. 
Therefore, the loudness at your friend's position is 16 times that of yours.

A container of volume 0.6 m^3 contains 5.3 mol of argon gas at 24°C. Assuming argon behaves as an ideal gas, find the total inte
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

the internal energy of the gas is 433089.52 J

Explanation:

let n be the number of moles, R be the gas constant and T be the temperature in Kelvins.

the internal energy of an ideal gas is given by:

Ein = 3/2×n×R×T

     = 3/2×(5.3)×(8.31451)×(24 + 273)

     = 433089.52 J

Therefore, the internal energy of this gas is 433089.52 J.
