Kinetic energy of the horse and rider = 1/2 (mass) (speed)²

At 4.0 m/s :  KE = 1/2 (55kg) (4 m/s)²  =  440 joules

At 6.0 m/s :  KE = 1/2 (55kg) (6 m/s)²  =  990 joules

She increased the kinetic energy of herself and her vehicle by 550 joules,
so she must have put at least that much work into it.

How long have advances in astronomy been occurring? Only for the past few years
solniwko [45]

I'd have to say that the list of choices doesn't go far enough.

Advances in Astronomy have been occurring for at least the past two millennia (2000 years).  Maybe longer.

Consider an insulated tank with a volume V = 2 L is separated into two equal-volume parts by a thin wall. On the left is an idea
steposvetlana [31]

Answer

given,

V = 2 L

the left is an ideal gas at  P = 100 k Pa and T = 500 K

mass is constant

 m_1 = m_2

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}

Pressure is same because it's not changing due to process

\dfrac{V}{500} = \dfrac{2 V}{T_2}

T_2 = 1000\ K

\Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + (\Delta S)_{surr}

\Delta S_{univ} =m(C_v ln (\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}))+ R ln (\dfrac{V_2}{V_1})

m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}

m = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}}{287\times 500}

m = 1.39 x 10⁻³ Kg

\Delta S_{univ} =1.39\times 10^{-3}(0.718 ln\ 2+ 0.287 ln (2)

\Delta S_{univ} =0.968\times 10^{-3}\ kJ/K

What are the effects of pressure on liquids?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: Changes in pressure have very little effect on the volume of a liquid. Liquids are slightly incompressible because any increase in pressure can only slightly minimize the distance between the closely packed molecules. Hope this helps.
