A curtain hangs straight down in front of an open window. A sudden gust of wind blows past the window; and the curtain is pulled

out of the window. Which law, principle, or equation can be used to explain this movement of the curtain?A. Poiseuille's lawB. Bernoulli's equationC. the equation of continuityD. Archimedes' principleE. Pascal's principle

Answer:

option B.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B.

The phenomenon of the curtains to pull out of the window can be explained using Bernoulli's equation.

According to Bernoulli's Principle when the speed of the moving fluid increases the pressure within the fluid decrease.

When wind flows in the outside window the pressure outside window decreases and pressure inside the room is more so, the curtain moves outside because of low pressure.

A closed, rigid container holding 0.2 moles of a monatomic ideal gas is placed over a Bunsen burner and heated slowly, starting
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a) 2250 J

b) 0 J

c) 2250 J

Explanation:

a) Since, the process is isochoric

the change in internal energy

\Delta U = n C_v(T_f-T_i)

Here, n = 0.2 moles

Cv = 12.5 J/mole.K

We have to find T_f so we can use gas equation as

\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2V_2} =\frac{T_i}{T_f}\\Since, V_1=V_2    [isochoric/process]\\\Rightarrow \frac{P_{atm}}{4P_{atm}} = \frac{300}{T_f} \\\Rightarrow T_f = 1200 K

So,  \Delta U= 0.2\times12.5(1200-300)\\=2250 J

b) Since, the process is isochoric no work shall be done.

c) By first law of thermodynamics we have

\Delta U = Q-W\\Since, W = 0\\\Delta U = Q\\Therefore, Q = 2250 J

Since, Q is positive 2250 J of heat will flow into the system.

A vertical spring of constant k = 400 N/m hangs at rest. When a 2 kg mass is attached to it, and it is released, the spring exte
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

4.9 cm

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

F = ke......................... Equation 1

Where F= force, e = extension, k = spring constant.

Note: the Force acting on the the spring is the weight of the mass.

W = mg.

F = mg.................... Equation 2

Where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

mg = ke

make e the subject of the equation

e = mg/k............... Equation 3.

Given: m = 2 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², k = 400 N/m

e = (2×9.8)/400

e = 19.6/400

e = 0.049 m

e = 4.9 cm

Combine Newton's 2nd law and Hooke's law for a spring to find the acceleration of the block a(t) as a function of time. Express
Inga [223]

Answer:

a=-\dfrac{k}{m}x(t)

Explanation:

From Newton's second law,

F = ma

where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

From Hooke's law,

F = -kx(t)

where k is the spring constant and x(t) is the displacement function measured from the origin. The negative sign indicates the force acts in opposite direction to the displacement. In fact, it is a restoring force; it acts to return the spring to its original undisturbed position.

Since both forces are the same,

F = ma= - kx(t)

a=-\dfrac{k}{m}x(t)

The implication of this is that the acceleration is proportional to the displacement but opposite to it. That last statement is the definition of a simple harmonic motion which this is.

The ratio \dfrac{k}{m} is a constant except in situations where the mass is varying (say, the mass on the spring is a decaying material).

3. In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 80m

Explanation:

Distance of balloon to the ground is 3150m

Let the distance of Menin's pocket to the ground be x

Let the distance between Menin's pocket to the balloon be y

Hence, x=3150-y------1

Using the equation of motion,

V^2= U^s + 2gs--------2

U= initial speed is 0m/s

g is replaced with a since the acceleration is under gravity (g) and not straight line (a), hence g is taken as 10m/s

40m/s is contant since U (the coin is at rest is 0) hence V =40m/s

Slotting our values into equation 2

40^2= 0^2 + 2 * 10* (3150-y)

1600 = 0 + 63000 - 20y

1600 - 63000 = - 20y

-61400 = - 20y minus cancel out minus on both sides of the equation

61400 = 20y

Hence y = 61400/20

3070m

Hence, recall equation 1

x = 3150 - 3070

80m

I hope this solve the problem.

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can
gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
