The period of a wave is the time it takes the wave to complete one cycle (at a fixed location).

So if a wave completes one cycle in 2 seconds, then that is its period.

Observe yourself breathing and count the number of times you inhale per second. During each breath you probably inhale 0.66 L of

Pavel [41]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Robert Boyle's law where:

$PV=nRT$

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

n = amount of substance

R = Ideal gas constant

We start by calculating the volume of inhaled O_2 for it:

$V = 21\% * 0.66L$

$V = 0.1386L$

Our values are given as

P = 1atm

T=293K $R = 0.083145kJ*mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

Using the equation to find n, we have:

$PV=nRT$

$n = \frac{PV}{RT}$

$n = \frac{(1)(0.1386)}{(0.0821)(293)}$

$n = 5.761*10^{-3}mol$

Number of molecules would be found through Avogadro number, then

$\#Molecules = 5.761*10^{-3}*6.022*10^{23}$

$\#Molecules = 3.469*10^{21} molecules$

Aliens? do you believe? To get the points go into detail :)

zzz [600]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There are so many planets out there that there must be habitable planets if not in our galaxy but the Universe.

Although the chances of advanced life are slim, small primitive life like microbes or sea life may still exist.

A sodium atom will absorb light with a wavelength near 589 nm if the light is within 10 MHz of the resonant frequency. The atomi

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

i)20369 photons

ii) 40 ps

Explanation:

Momentum of one Sodium atom:

$P=m*v =600m/s*23amu*\frac{1 kg}{6.02*10^{23}amu}\\P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s$

In other to stop it, it must absorb the same momentum in photons:

$P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s=n_{photons}*\frac{h_{planck}}{\lambda}\\=n*\frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{589*10^{-9}} \\==>n=20369 photons$

Now, for the minimun time, we use the speed of light and the wavelength. For the n photons:

$t=n*T=n*\frac{\lambda}{c} =20369*\frac{589nm}{3*10^{8}m/s}=4*10^{-11} second=40 ps$

5. What is the amount of force required to accelerate a 20 kg object at a rate of 5 m/sz?

GenaCL600 [577]

Force required is 100 N

Given that;

Rate of acceleration = 5 m/s²

Mass of object = 20kg

Find:

Force required

Computation:

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Force required = Rate of acceleration × Mass of object

Force required = 20 × 5

Force required = 100 N

A vertical cylindrical tank 10 ft in diameter, has an inflow line of 0.3 ft inside diameter and an outflow line of 0.4 ft inside

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

$\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}$ , level is rising.

Explanation:

Since liquid water is a incompresible fluid, density can be eliminated of the equation of Mass Conservation, which is simplified as follows:

$\dot V_{in} - \dot V_{out} = \frac{dV_{tank}}{dt}$

$\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in}-\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}= \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out} = D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}}{D_{tank}^{2}}$

By replacing all known variables:

$\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{(0.3 ft)^{2}\cdot (5 \frac{ft}{s} ) - (0.4 ft)^{2} \cdot (2 \frac{ft}{s} )}{(10 ft)^{2}}\\\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}$

The positive sign of the rate of change of the tank level indicates a rising behaviour.
