The level of toluene (a flammable hydrocarbon) in a storage tank may fluctuate between 10 and 400 cm from the top of the tank. since it is impossible to see inside the tank, an open-end manometer with water or mercury as the manometer fluid is to be used to determine the toluene level. one leg of the manometer is attached to the tank 500 cm from the top. a nitrogen blanket at atmospheric pressure is maintained over the tank contents. felder, richard m.; rousseau, ronald w.; bullard, lisa g.. elementary principles of chemical processes, 4th edition (page 81). wiley. kindle edition.

Answer:
When water is used the reading is [tex] R = 2281.6 \ cm [/tex]
When mercury is used the reading is [tex] R = 23.83 \ cm [/tex]
The best fluid to use is mercury because for water a slight change in toluene level will cause a large change in height .
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the leg of the manometer to the top of the tank is d = 500cm
The toluene level where in the tank where the height of the manometer fluid level in the open arm is equal to the height where the manometer is connected to the tank is h =150 cm
The manometer reading is R
Generally at the point where the height of the open arm is equal to the height of the of the point connected to the tank ,
The pressure at the height of the both arms of the manometer corresponding to the base of the tank are equal
i.e [tex]P_1 = P_2[/tex]
Here [tex]P_1[/tex] is the pressure of the manometer at the point corresponding to the base of the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex] P_{atm} + P_1 = P_{atm} + P_t[/tex]
Here [tex]P_t[/tex] is the pressure due to the toluene level in the tank and in the arm of the manometer connected to the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex]P_t = \rho_t * g * h_i[/tex]
Here
[tex]\rho_t [/tex] is the density of toluene with value [tex]\rho_t = 867 kg/m^3 [/tex]
[tex]h_i[/tex] is the height of the connected arm above the point equivalent to the base of the tank , this mathematically represented as
[tex]h_i = d - h + R[/tex]
and [tex] P_2 [/tex] is the the pressure at the open arm of the manometer at the point equivalent to the base of the base of the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex] P_2 = \rho_f * g * h_f [/tex]
Here
[tex]\rho_f[/tex] is the density of the fluid in use , if it is water the density is
[tex]\rho_w = 1000 \ kg /m^3 [/tex]
and if it is mercury the density is
[tex]\rho_m = 13600 \ kg /m^3 [/tex]
[tex]h_f[/tex] is the height of the fluid in the open arm of the manometer from the point equivalent to the base of the tank which is equivalent the manometer reading R
So when the fluid is water we have
[tex] P_{atm} + \rho_t* g *(d - h + R) = P_{atm} + \rho_f * g * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] \rho_t* (d - h + R) = \rho_w * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] 867 (500 - 150 + R) = 1000 * R [/tex]
=> [tex] R = 2281.6 \ cm [/tex]
So when the fluid is mercury we have
[tex] \rho_t* (d - h + R) = \rho_m * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] 867 (500 - 150 + R) = 13600 * R [/tex]
=> [tex] R = 23.83 \ cm [/tex]
The difference in the mercury reading for mercury due to the fact that they have different densities as we have seen in this calculation
So the best fluid to use is mercury because for water a slight change in toluene level will cause a large change in height .
A cannonball with a mass of 50 kilograms and a golf ball with a mass of 0. 8 kilograms are dropped in a vacuum from a height of 10 meters. Compare the acceleration of each object as they fall.
It's gonna take a huge amount of time and effort, and we're gonna spend a huge amount of money, to build a vacuum chamber big enough to do this experiment.
So when we're finally ready to try it, the cannonball and golf ball will make a kind of cute experiment, but let's make it really interesting. Let's ALSO try it with a feather, an apple, a watermelon, a tennis ball, a basketball, a coffeepot, a chair, an old computer, a set of dishes, a trombone, a bicycle, a math book, a TV set, a gallon of milk, a skateboard, a shotgun, a concrete block, a car, a waterbed, a schoolbus, a battleship, your dog, and my wife !
Drop every single one of them from a height of 10 meters.
Every single one of them accelerates at 9.8 m/s² as it falls, takes 1.429 seconds to reach the floor, and hits the floor at a speed of 14 m/s. The feather, the schoolbus, and my wife stay together all the way down.
The only way this doesn't happen is if ...
-- you do this experiment in some other place that's not Earth, or
-- you throw one of the objects and you don't just drop it, or
-- the vacuum chamber has a leak and some air gets into it.
Because that's how gravity works.
An object dropped from rest and falls a distance of 80 m.

What affect does doubling the net force have on the acceleration of the object (when
the mass of the object stays the same)? Identify a set of two trials that support your answer to question 1
===========================================================
Explanation:
Consider a mass of 10 kg, so m = 10
Let's say we apply a net force of 20 newtons, so F = 20
The acceleration 'a' is...
F = ma
20 = 10a
20/10 = a
2 = a
a = 2
The acceleration is 2 m/s^2. Every second, the velocity increases by 10 m/s.
---------------
Now let's double the net force on the object
F = 20 goes to F = 40
m = 10 stays the same
F = ma
40 = 10a
10a = 40
a = 40/10
a = 4
The acceleration has also doubled since earlier it was a = 2, but now it's a = 4.
---------------
In summary, if you double the net force applied to the object, then the acceleration doubles as well.
Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force on an object, and inversely proportional to its mass.
So if an object's mass stays the same while the net force on it doubles, then its acceleration will also double.
We don't know anything about the "trials". This sounds like it might be a follow-up to a lab experiment that was performed when we weren't there.
We also don't know anything about "question 1".

In the desert air, sound travels at 358 meters per second (m/s). In the polar air, sound travels at 330 meters per
second (m/s). What can you conclude from this information?
A - The speed of sound is constant.
B - Sound waves travel fastest in a vacuum.
C-The temperature of the air affects the speed of sound.
D-Sound waves travel at the same speed everywhere on Earth.
Please provide your answer below using CER
1. Claim: What is your choice for the correct answer?
2. Evidence: What evidence did you observe from the test-like question that made you decide on your answer?
3. Reasoning: Provide an elaboration on your evidence, possible prior knowledge about your claim.
Answer:
The correct option is;
C. The temperature of the air affects the speed of sound
Explanation:
The information given are;
The speed with which sound travels in the desert air = 358 m/s
The speed with which sound travels in the polar air = 330 m/s
The major difference between the desert air and the polar air is that the temperature of the desert air is hotter than the temperature of the air in the polar region. Therefore the speed of sound is affected by the air temperature.
The equation that gives the relationship of the speed of sound in air, [tex]v_{air}[/tex], to temperature is presented as follows;
[tex]v_{air} = 331\frac{m}{s} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T_K}{273 K} } = 331\frac{m}{s} \times \sqrt{1 + \dfrac{T_{^{\circ}C}}{273 ^{\circ} C} }[/tex]
Which shows that the speed of sound in air, [tex]v_{air}[/tex], rises as the temperature of the air rises.
Where;
[tex]T_{^{\circ}C}[/tex] = The temperature of the air in degrees Celsius
[tex]T_K[/tex] = The temperature of the air in degrees Kelvin.

Joe went to see his Grandmother. He promised his Grandma that he would arrive at her house at 5 pm. He leaves his house at 3:00 and this will allow him 2 hours to get to her house. Joe will need to travel 70 miles to get to her house. How fast will Joe need to drive to make it to Grandma's house on time?
Answer:
35 mph
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Time (t) = 2 hours
Distance (d) = 70 miles
Speed (S) =.?
Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
Speed (S) = Distance (d) / Time (t)
S = d/t
With the above formula, we can calculate how fast (i.e the speed) Joe will need to drive to make it to his Grandma's house on time. This can be obtained as follow:
Time (t) = 2 hours
Distance (d) = 70 miles
Speed (S) =.?
S = d/t
S = 70/2
S = 35 mph
Therefore, Joe will drive at 35 mph in order to get to his Grandma's house on time.

what happens to the wave length and frequency of a wave as it crosses a different medium and speeds
Answer: SEE EXPLANATION!
Explanation:
When waves travel from one medium to another the frequency never changes. As waves travel into the denser medium, they slow down and wavelength decreases. Part of the wave travels faster for longer causing the wave to turn. The wave is slower but the wavelength is shorter meaning frequency remains the same.

A runner is jogging in a straight line at a steady vr= 7.3 km/hr. When the runner is L= 2.1 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying straight from the runner to the finish line at vb= 29.2 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). When the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies directly back to the runner After this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. The bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. How far does the bird travel from the beginning (including the distance traveled to the first encounter
Answer:
Explanation:
Time taken by jogger to travel the distance to finishing line = 2.1 / 7.3
= .28767 hr
Bird will keep flying for this time period
distance covered by bird = speed x time
= 29.2 x .28767 km
= 8.4 km .

Answer:
162
Explanation:
When the amplitude of the wave is 8 units, the corresponding energy of the wave is 128 units. Therefore, option C is correct.
What do you mean by an amplitude ?The term amplitude is defined as the maximum distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave calculated from its equilibrium position.
We have given,
first amplitude, A = 1, corresponding energy = 2
second amplitude, A = 2, corresponding energy = 8
The energy of a string at a given amplitude is calculated as follows;
E ∝ A²
Energy varies as the square of the change in amplitude.
If amplitude of one has energy of two
Amplitude of 2 (double of 1)
= ( 2 x 2 ) = 4 x 2
= 8 4 times the energy at amplitude of 1.
Then for 8 units of amplitude change
8 x 8 = 64 x 2
= 128
Thus, When the amplitude of the wave is 8 units, the corresponding energy of the wave is 128 units, option C is correct.
