Answer: see the graph attached (straight line, passing through the origin and positive slope).
Justification:1)
Kinetic energy and temperature are in direct proportion. That means:
i) Being kinetic energy y and temperature x:
y α xii) That implies:
y = kx,where k is the constant of proportionality.
iii) The graph is a
line that passes through the origin and has positive slope k (k = y / x).2) The proportional relationship between kinetic energy (KE) and temperature (T) is shown by the
Boltzman law, which states:
Average KE = [3 / 2] KT, where K is Boltzman's constant, whose graph is of the form shown in the figure attached.
Two thermometers, calibrated in celsius and fahrenheit respectively, are put into a liquid. the reading on the fahrenheit scale is four times the reading on the celsius scale. the temperature of the liquid is:
Using Newton's second law of motion:
F=ma ; [ F = force (N: kgm/s^2);m= mass (kg); a = acceleration (m/s^2)
Given: Find: Formula: Solve for m:
F: 2500N mass:? F=ma Eq.1 m=F/a Eq. 2
a= 200m/s^2
Solution:
Using Eq.2
m= (2500 kgm/s^2)/ (200m/s^2) = 12.5 kg
The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the
square of the distance between their centers. So the
force is greatest when the distance is zero.
On Earth, a cannonball with a mass of 20 kg would weigh 196 Newtons.
With the formula F=mg, where F is the weight in Newtons, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth which is 9.8m/s^2.
F=20kg x 9.8m/s^2= 196 Newtons
BUT on the moon, acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s^2,
so F=mg=20kgx1.6m/s^2= 32 N
