The shoreline would be your reference point.

A reference point, in physics, is some point in space used to illustrate the location or position of other things, relative to this reference point. So in this case, the shoreline is considered as the reference point to locate the position of the surfers.

A satellite’s velocity is 30000m/s. After 60 secs, it’s velocity shows to 15000m/a. What is the satellite’s acceleration?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Acceleration = 9 × 10^5 m/s^2 ( deceleration )

Explanation:

From the first equation of motion:

V = u + at

15000 = 30000 + 60a

a = ( 15000-30000)/60

a = 9 × 10^5 m/s^2

Help would be greatly appreciated:) thank you! a pendulum clock is brought to mars. How does the bob move on Mars as compared to

Alborosie

It runs slower <span>as gravity is lower so acceleration due to gravity is smaller</span>

Two cylinders each contain 0.30 mol of a diatomic gas at 320 K and a pressure of 3.0 atm. Cylinder A expands isothermally and cy

Svetllana [295]

Answer :

(a). The final temperature of the gas in the cylinder A is 320 K.

(b). The final temperature of the gas in the cylinder B is 233.7 K.

(c). The final volume of the gas in the cylinder A is $7.86\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

(d). The final volume of the gas in the cylinder B is $5.7\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Explanation :

Given that,

Number of mole n = 0.30 mol

Initial temperature = 320 K

Pressure = 3.0 atm

Final pressure = 1.0 atm

We need to calculate the initial volume

Using formula of ideal gas

$P_{1}V_{1}=nRT$

$V_{1}=\dfrac{nRT}{P_{1}}$

Put the value into the formula

$V_{1}=\dfrac{0.30\times8.314\times320}{3.039\times10^{5}}$

$V_{1}=2.62\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

(a). We need to calculate the final temperature of the gas in the cylinder A

Using formula of ideal gas

In isothermally, the temperature is not change.

So, the final temperature of the gas in the cylinder A is 320 K.

(b). We need to calculate the final temperature of the gas in the cylinder B

Using formula of ideal gas

$T_{2}=T_{1}\times(\dfrac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})^{\frac{1}{\gamma}-1}$

Put the value into the formula

$T_{2}=320\times(\dfrac{3}{1})^{\frac{1}{1.4}-1}$

$T_{2}=233.7\ K$

(c). We need to calculate the final volume of the gas in the cylinder A

Using formula of volume of the gas

$P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}$

$V_{2}=\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{P_{2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$V_{2}=\dfrac{3\times2.62\times10^{-3}}{1}$

$V_{2}=0.00786\ m^3$

$V_{2}=7.86\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

(d). We need to calculate the final volume of the gas in the cylinder B

Using formula of volume of the gas

$V_{2}=V_{1}(\dfrac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})^{\frac{1}{\gamma}}$

$V_{2}=2.62\times10^{-3}\times(\dfrac{3}{1})^{\frac{1}{1.4}}$

$V_{2}=0.0057\ m^3$

$V_{2}=5.7\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Hence, (a). The final temperature of the gas in the cylinder A is 320 K.

(b). The final temperature of the gas in the cylinder B is 233.7 K.

(c). The final volume of the gas in the cylinder A is $7.86\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

(d). The final volume of the gas in the cylinder B is $5.7\times10^{-3}\ m^3$
