Answer:

V = 6.3 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

m₁ = 2 kg

m₂ = 18 kg

m₃ = 9 kg

V₁ = 10 m/s

V₂ = 8 m/s

V₃ = 2 m/s

__________

V - ?

Let us write the momentum conservation law for an inelastic impact:

m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ = (m₁ +m₂ + m₃) ·V

Cart speed after interaction:

V = ( m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ ) / (m₁ +m₂ + m₃)

V = (2·10 + 18·8 + 9·2) / ( 2 + 18 + 9) = 182 / 29 ≈  6.3 m/s

Two advantages of solar energy over energy from Fossil fuels​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1)Fuel Sourcing

2)Power Generation

Explanation:

1)Fuel Sourcing : Fossil fuels must be located, excavated and transported before they can be used. These processes are invasive and detrimental to the land through side effects such as erosion as well as ecological and geologic instability. Then the deposit or well is depleted. Energy from the sun is infinite and free. It can be harnessed and turned into power anywhere a solar panel can be mounted.

2)Power Generation: Fossil fuels must be burned to produce electricity. Burning them creates unwanted byproducts that can create air and water pollution and release huge amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.

2.5 g of helium at an initial temperature of 300 K interacts thermally with 9.0 g of oxygen at an initial temperature of 620 K .
muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

2.5 g of He = 2.5 / 4  mole

= .625 moles

9 g of oxygen = 9/32

= .28 mole of oxygen

C_p of He = 3/2 R

C_p of O₂ = 5/2 R

A ) Initial thermal energy of He = 3/2 n R T

= 1.5 x .625 x 8.32 x 300

= 2340 J

Initial thermal energy of O₂ = 5/2 n R T

= 2.5 x .28 x 8.32 x 620

= 3610.88 J

B ) If T be the equilibrium temperature after mixing

gain of heat by helium

= n C_p Δ T

= .625 x 3/2 R x ( T - 300 )

Loss of heat by oxygen

n C_p Δ T

= .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

Loss of heat = gain of heat

.625 x 3/2 R x ( T - 300 ) = .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

1.875 T- 562.5 = 868- 1.4 T

3.275 T = 1430,5

T = 436.8 K

Thermal energy of He

= 1.5 x .625 x 8.32 x 436.8

= 3407 J

thermal energy of O₂

= 2.5 x .28  x 8.32 x 436.8

= 2543.92 J

C )

Heat energy transferred

=  .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

=  .28 x 5/2 x  8.32 x ( 620 - 436.8 )

1066.95 J

Heat will flow from O₂ to He

Final temperature is 436.8 K
