Three kilograms of argon (Ar) changes from an initial volume and a temperature of 298K to (a) four times the volume and a temper

ature of 298K and (b) one fourth the original volume under adiabatic conditions. In each case: Calculate the amount of work performed. Is the work done by the system or the surroundings? (pl/, for monatomic gases is 1.667)

Answer:

Explanation:

3 kg = 3 / 40 = .075 moles = n

a ) Since the gas is expanding isothermally ( temperature being constant )

work done by the gas

= 2.303 n RT log V₂ / V₁

Here V₂ / V₁ = 4 , T = 298

Put these values in the equation above ,

work done = .075x 2.303 x 8.312 x 298 log 4

= 257.6 J

b) In adibatic change

pv^\gamma = constant

T V^{\gamma-1} = constant

T₁ / T₂ = (\frac{V_2}{V_1}  )^{\gamma-1}

298 / T₂ = ( 4)^{1.667-1}

T₂ = 751.26 K.

In adiabatic change work done

= n R ( T₁ - T₂) / (γ -1)

.075x 8.312 X ( 751 - 298 ) / .667

= 423.38. J

Your neighbor Paul has rented a truck with a loading ramp. The ramp is tilted upward at 25°, and Paul is pulling a large crate u
Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The ramp is tilted upwards at 25 degrees and Paul is pulling a large crate up the ramp with a rope that angles 10° above the ramp.

Total angle with respect to ramp is 35 degrees.

If Paul pulls with a force of 550 N.

The horizontal component of the force is given by :

F_x=F\ cos\theta

F_x=550\ cos(35)

F_x=450.53\ N

The vertical component of the force is given by :

F_y=F\ sin\theta

F_y=550\ sin(35)

F_y=315.46\ N

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which among the following statement/s is correct?
seropon [69]

Answer:

(D) None

Explanation:

The force of gravity is the force pulling every element of matter together. The more the matter the higher the force of gravity.

Examples of this force at work are;

  • The force that causes an apple to fall from the tree
  • The force that causes a rock to roll downside a hill
  • The force causing people to walk on the earth surface instead of floating

The force that facilitates a pen on your hand to write on a paper is friction force between the pen and the paper. Gravitational force acts downwards thus force applied on an object beside you is not the force of gravity.

Which term means the distance between two bridge supports?
Ad libitum [116K]

The best answer is b - span.

A span is the distance between two bridge supports The supports may be towers, columns, or even the wall of a canyon.

There are many kinds of bridges  but they all fall into three types namely beam, arch and suspension. The major difference between these three kinds of bridges is the distance that each can cross in  a single span.

For example, a modern beam bridge is likely to span a distance of 200 feet, a modern arch can span 800 or 1000feet,  and a modern suspension bridge can span up to 7000ft.
