Hence, internal energy in cylinder B is twice than that in A.

It is given that two cylinders contain the same ideal gas and have the same volume. If the gas molecules in cylinder B have twice the average kinetic energy as those in cylinder, we need to compare internal energy.

As kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature, internal energy is also proportional to temperature.

We can say that more the average kinetic energy, more is the internal energy.

Hence, internal energy in cylinder B is twice than that in A.

The ratio in A:B is 1:2.

A diver jumps off a diving platform that is 20 meters long. Describe the transfer of energy that occurs during the fall.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

When the diver stands on the platform, at 20 m above the surface of the water, he has some gravitational potential energy, which is given by

E=mgh

where m is the man's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the water. As he jumps, the gravitational potential energy starts decreasing, because its height h above the water decreases, and he acquires kinetic energy, which is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v is the speed of the diver, which is increasing. When he touches the water, all the initial gravitational potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.
