Answer:

Correct option a. one state variable T.

Explanation:

In the case of an ideal gas it is shown that internal energy depends exclusively on temperature, since in an ideal gas any interaction between the molecules or atoms that constitute it is neglected, so that internal energy is only kinetic energy, which depends Only of the temperature. This fact is known as Joule's law.

The internal energy variation of an ideal gas (monoatomic or diatomic) between two states A and B is calculated by the expression:

ΔUAB = n × Cv × (TB - TA)

Where n is the number of moles and Cv the molar heat capacity at constant volume. Temperatures must be expressed in Kelvin.

An ideal gas will suffer the same variation in internal energy (ΔUAB) as long as its initial temperature is TA and its final temperature TB, according to Joule's Law, whatever the type of process performed.

Answer:

-2200 N

Explanation:

The change in momentum of Sarah is equal to the impulse, which is the product between the force exerted by the seatbelt on Sarah and the time during which the force is applied:

$\Delta p=I\\m \Delta v = F \Delta t$

where

m is the mass

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

F is the average force

$\Delta t$ is the duration of the collision

In this problem:, we have:

m = 55 kg is Sarah's mass

$\Delta v = 0-20 = -20 m/s$ is the change in velocity

$\Delta t = 0.5 s$ is the duration of the collision

Solving for F, we find the force exerted by the seatbelt on Sarah:

$F=\frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{(55)(-20)}{0.5}=-2200 N$

Where the negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to that of Sarah's initial velocity.

PLEASE HURRYYYY!!!<br><br> Explain how you read measurements in a graduated cylinder?

fredd [130]

Answer:

Reading a Graduated Cylinder

Place the graduated cylinder on a flat surface and view the height of the liquid in the cylinder with your eyes directly level with the liquid. The liquid will tend to curve downward. This curve is called the meniscus. Always read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus.....

hope it helps....

Answer:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m

Explanation:

In general we have the following relation between the Electric Field and the Elecric Potential:

$\int\limits^2_1 {\vec{E} \cdot\vec{dl}} = V_{2} -V_{1}$

Due to the vector nature of the electric filed, we can only know the mean Electric field E across the membrane, and take it out from the integral, that is:

E = (ΔV)/L

Where L is the thickness of the membrane and ΔV is the potential difference.

Therefore:

E = 8.53933*10^6 V/m

rounding to the first tenth:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m
