The air temperature over a lake decreases linearly with height after sunset, since air cools faster than water. The mean molar mass of air is M=28.8×10−3kg/mol. If the temperature at the surface is 28.00 ∘C and the temperature at a height of 300.0 m is 8.000 ∘C how long does it take sound to rise 300.0 m directly upward? [Hint: Use the equation v=√γRT/M and integrate. At a height of 300.0 m, how far does sound travel horizontally in this same time interval?

Expert Solution

There is a problem in the solution.first change temperature from celcious to kelvin then put them in equation(1).rest the process is correct.

Still,If you face any prblm going through the solution,let me know by commenting.

the adiabatic flame temperature (theoretical maximum temperature) of black coal in air is over 2000oC. If the ambient temperature is 20oC then the theoretical maximum efficiency of a coal fired power station is approximately 87%. Why then is the efficiency of even the best coal fired power stations less than 50%.

Otto is considering flying his hot air balloon over a lake, yet he is concerned about his safety. The hot air balloon has three independent burners, any one of which is sufficient to keep the balloon aloft. Otto knows that the probability that any individual burner will fail during this voyage is equal to .02. Otto is only willing to go on this voyage if the probability that all three burners fail is less than .0000001. Imagine that Otto asks...

In a low temperature drying system, air at 60°C and 10% Relative humidity passes over a bed of diced carrots at 20 kg-dry air/sec. The rate of water removal from the carrots Is measured by difference in total weight over time and found to be approximately .16 kg-water/sec. In the system described above, calculate the temperature and relative humidity of the air exiting the drying system.
