Describe and open, closed, and isolated system

Physics
1 answer:
PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago

An open system can exchange both matter and energy with the surroundings. Δ H is measured when
an open system is used as a calorimeter.

A closed system has a fixed amount of matter, but it can exchange energy with the surroundings. Δ U is
measured when a closed system is used as a calorimeter because there is no change in volume and thus no
expansion work can be done.

An isolated system has no contact with its surroundings. The universe is considered an isolated system but on
a less profound scale, your thermos for keeping liquids hot approximates an isolated system.

When an electron falls from a higher to a lower energy level in an atom, the photon released has a wavelength of 121.6 nm. What
yarga [219]

Answer:

\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Explanation:

The energy difference between the energy levels involved in the transition of the electron is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted photon:

\Delta E=h\nu(1)

Where h is the Planck constant. The photon's frequency is inversely proportional to its wavelegth:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}(2)

Here c is the speed of light. Replacing (2) in (1):

\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Delta E=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34}J\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{121.6*10^{-9}m}\\\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound
adell [148]

Sound travels at approximately 1,100 feet per second (766 miles per hour). Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 186,000 miles per second. This means that in the time radio waves travel the length of a football field, light can travel further than all the way around the world.

Once juno reaches jupiter, what is the minimum amount of time it takes for the transmitted signals to travel from the spacecraft
Komok [63]

In very very very round figures . . .

-- Jupiter is about 5.2 times as far from the sun as the earth is.

-- So when Jupiter and the EARTH are aligned in both orbits, Jupiter is about

(4.2) x (150 million kilometers) = 630 million kilometers

Time = (distance) / (speed)

The speed of light and radio is 300,000 km/second

Time = (630 million / 300 thousand)

<em>Time = 2,100 seconds</em>

That's 35 minutes.

A current of 0.4 A flows through a wire. How many electrons flow through a cross section of
Free_Kalibri [48]

9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

<h3>What is the relation between current and charge?</h3>
  • Mathematically, current = charge / time
  • In S.I. unit, Charge is written in Coulomb and time in second.

<h3>What is the amount of charge flown through a wire for one hour if it carries 0.4 A current?</h3>
  • Charge= current × time
  • Current= 0.4 A, time = 1 hour= 3600 s
  • Charge= 0.4× 3600

= 1440 C

<h3>How many numbers of electrons present in 1440C of charge?</h3>
  • One electron= 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
  • So, 1440 C = 1440/1.6 × 10^(-19)

= 9 × 10²¹ electrons

Thus, we can conclude that the 9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

Calcular la energía cinética de un cometa cuya masa es de 5×10 elevado a 31 kg y se mueve con velocidad de 216000km/h
PolarNik [594]

The kinetic energy is 9\cdot 10^{40}J.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

K is the kinetic energy of the object

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

For the comet in this problem, we have:

m=5\cdot 10^{31} kg is its mass

v=216,000 km/h is the speed

First, we convert the speed  from km/h to m/s:

v=216,000 \frac{km}{h} \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=60,000 m/s

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the comet is

K=\frac{1}{2}(5\cdot 10^{31})(60,000)^2=9\cdot 10^{40}J
