Asuspension bridge with weight uniformly distributed along its length has twin towers that extend 65 meters above the road surface and are 1200 meters apart. the cables are parabolic in shape and are suspended from the tops of the towers. the cables touch the road surface at the center of the bridge. find the height of the cables at a point 300 meters from the center. (assume that the road is level.)

Argon is adiabatically compressed from an initial volume of 16 liters to a final volume of 2 liters. by what factor do the following quantities change? do they increase or decrease? (a) the rms speed (b) the thermal energy of the gas (c) the molar specific heat cv (d) the pressure

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?
