On a dry day, just after washing your hair to remove natural oils and drying it thoroughly, run a plastic comb through it. Small
Hitman42 [59]
When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.

Two forces (4N and 3N) pull your the left, while a 12N force pulls to the right. What is the net force
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The answer is 11N to the right

Explanation:

Because 4N-3N= 1N

Therefore, 12N-1N=11N

The netforce is 11N to the right, because the greatest force is 12N to the right so it is more likely that the object is being pulled to the right.

A heat engine with 0.300 mol of a monatomic ideal gas initially fills a 1000 cm3 cylinder at 500 K . The gas goes through the fo
LuckyWell [14K]

Complete Question:

A heat engine with 0.300 mol of a monatomic ideal gas initially fills a 1000 cm3 cylinder at 500 K . The gas goes through the following closed cycle: - Isothermal expansion to 5000 cm3. - Isochoric cooling to 400 K . - Isothermal compression to 1000 cm3. - Isochoric heating to 500 K .

a) what is the work for one cycle

b) what is the thermal efficiency

Answer:

a) Work done for 1 cycle = 402.13

b) Thermal efficiency = 20%

Explanation:

Number of moles, n = 0.300 mol

Initial Volume, V₁ = 1000 cm³

Temperature, T = 500 K

Isothermal expansion to 5000 cm³

Final volume, V₂ = 5000 cm³

R = 8.314 J/ mol.K

Work done, W = nRT ln(V₂/V₁)

W = (0.3 * 8.314 * 500) * ln(5000/1000)

W = 1247.1 * ln5

W₁ = 2007.13 J

Isochoric cooling

In an Isochoric process, volume is constant i.e. V₂ = V₁ = V

W = nRT ln(V/V)

But  ln(V/V) = ln 1 = 0

Work done, W₂ = 0 Joules

Isothermal Compression to 1000 cm³

V₂ = 1000 cm³

V₁ = 5000 cm³

W = nRT ln(V₂/V₁)

W = 0.3 * 8.314 * 400 ln(1000/5000)

W₃ = -1605 J

Isochoric heating to 500 K

Since there is no change in volume, no work is done

W₄ = 0 J

a) Work done for 1 cycle

W = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄

W = 2007.13 + 0 + 0 -1605+0

W = 402.13 Joules

b) Thermal efficiency

Thermal efficiency = (Net workdone for 1 cycle)/(Heat absorbed)

Heat absorbed = Work done due to thermal expansion = 2007.13 J

Thermal efficiency = 402.13/2007.13

Thermal efficiency = 0.2

Thermal efficiency = 0.2 * 100% = 20 %

What is the purpose of experimentation in a research study
Nat2105 [25]
Hello,

The answer is to "prove your hypothesis".

Reason:

Researchers do experiments to prove there hypothesis they will most likely do the experiment a few times in older to have the conclusion valid therefore proving his or her experiment. 

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

What is the number of waves that pass a fixed ping in a given amount of time?
Viktor [21]
The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time is wave frequency. Wave frequency can be measured by counting the number of crests (high points) of waves that pass the fixed point in 1 second or some other time period. The higher the number is, the greater the frequency of the waves. :)
