The equation for the ideal gas is (P – a/V2) (V-b) = K. Here P is the pressure, V is the volume of the gas. If a and b are constants, what is the the units of a/b.
In 1923, the United States Army (there was no United States Air Force at that time) set a record for in-flight refueling of
airplanes. Using two refueling planes, an Airco DH-4B biplane was able to remain in flight for 36 h. During the flight, the
refueling planes were able to air-transfer a total of 687 gallons of fuel to the plane in 9 refueling transfers.
Assume that the refueling nozzle had a diameter of 1.35
and each refueling took 2.41 min to perform. Calculate the
velocity of the fuel through the nozzle. Assume that the fuel filled the entire cross-sectional area of the nozzle.
velocity:
m/s
A relationship is found between the number density of cars on a freeway during rush hour, N, and distance. The relationship can be written as
