The thermal energy of a container of helium gas is halved. what happens to the temperature in kelvin

Physics

xxTIMURxx [149]3 years ago
5 0
Thermal energy quantifies the amount of heat present in the body and is calculated through the equation,

   H = mcpdT

where H is the heat, m is the mass, cp is the specific heat, and dT is the temperature difference. If all things are constant, and the thermal energy is halved then, dT should also be reduced to half.

the sole of a tennis shoe has a surface area of 0.0290 m^2. if it is worn by a 65.0 kg person, what pressure does the shoe exert
AURORKA [14]

Answer: 21965.517 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure P is the force F exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) A, its unit is Pascal Pa which is equal to N/m^{2} and its formula is:  

P=\frac{F}{A} (1)

In this case we have the surface of a sole of a tennis shoe:

A=0.0290 m^{2} (2)

And the mass m of the person who wears it:

m=65 kg

On the other hand, we know the weight is the force  F the Earth exerts on people and objects due gravity g :

F=m.g=(65 kg)(9.8m/^{2})

F=637N (3)

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

P=\frac{637N}{0.0290 m^{2}} (4)

Finally:

P=21965.517 Pa This is the pressure the shoe exert on the ground

What is the purpose of an experiment design?
Eddi Din [679]
An experimental design is used to assign variables for testing. In contrast to a control design where nothing is changed, the experimental design allows you to test various new inputs to see how they would vary from the original results.

Tectonic plates move due to _____ forces.
wel
<span>Tectonic plates move because they are floating on top of the liquid mantle. The mantle itself moves due to convection currents: hot rock rises, gives off some heat, then falls. This creates vast swirls of moving liquid rock under the crust of the earth, which jostles the plates of crust on top.

A body falls from the top of the tower and during the last second of its fall it fall through 23mvfind height of tower.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

39.7 m

Explanation:

First, we conside only the last second of fall of the body. We can apply the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, taking downward as positive direction:

s = 23 m is the displacement of the body

t = 1 s is the time interval considered

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

u is the velocity of the body at the beginning of that second

Solving for u, we find:

ut=s-\frac{1}{2}at^2\\u=\frac{s}{t}-\frac{1}{2}at=\frac{23}{1}-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(1)=18.1 m/s

Now we can call this velocity that we found v,

v = 18 m/s

And we can now consider the first part of the fall, where we can apply the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2 = 2as'

where

v = 18 m/s

u = 0 (the body falls from rest)

s' is the displacement of the body before the last second

Solving for s',

s'=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{18.1^2-0}{2(9.8)}=16.7 m

Therefore, the total heigth of the building is the sum of s and s':

h = s + s' = 23 m + 16.7 m = 39.7 m
