Answer:

  • The work made by the gas is 7475.69 joules
  • The heat absorbed is 7475.69 joules

Explanation:

<h3>Work</h3>

We know that the differential work made by the gas  its defined as:

dW =  P \ dv

We can solve this by integration:

\Delta W = \int\limits_{s_1}^{s_2}\,dW = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv

but, first, we need to find the dependence of Pressure with Volume. For this, we can use the ideal gas law

P \ V = \ n \ R \ T

P = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V}

This give us

\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V} \ dv

As n, R and T are constants

\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \ n \ R \ T \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{1}{V} \ dv

\Delta W= \ n \ R \ T  \left [ ln (V) \right ]^{v_2}_{v_1}

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ( ln (v_2) - ln (v_1 )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ( ln (v_2) - ln (v_1 )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln (\frac{v_2}{v_1})

But the volume is:

V = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P}

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln(\frac{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_2}}{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_1}} )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})

Now, lets use the value from the problem.

The temperature its:

T = 27 \° C = 300.15 \ K

The ideal gas constant:

R = 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol}

So:

\Delta W = \ 1 mol \ 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol} \ 300.15 \ K  ln (\frac{20 atm}{1 atm})

\Delta W = 7475.69 joules

<h3>Heat</h3>

We know that, for an ideal gas, the energy is:

E= c_v n R T

where c_v its the internal energy of the gas. As the temperature its constant, we know that the gas must have the energy is constant.

By the first law of thermodynamics, we know

\Delta E = \Delta Q - \Delta W

where \Delta W is the Work made by the gas (please, be careful with this sign convention, its not always the same.)

So:

\Delta E = 0

\Delta Q = \Delta W

Um avião, após deslocar-se 120 km para nordeste (NE), desloca-se 160 km para sudeste (SE). Sendo um quarto de hora o tempo total
Svetach [21]

Answer:

E) 800 km/h

Explanation:

The computation of the average vector velocity module of the plane, at that time is shown below:

The displacement vector is

d^2 = d1^2 + d2^2

where,

d1 = northeast displacement

d2 = southeast displacement

Now

d^2 = (120)^2 + (160)^2

= 14400 + 2560

= 40000

= √40000

d = 200 km

Now the average velocity is

V = ΔS ÷ Δt

= 200 ÷ 1 ÷ 4

= 200 × 4

=  800 km/h

How are magnetic forces like electric forces? (4 points) Select one: a. They both have charges b. In both, opposites attract. c.
nlexa [21]

Lets take it down a notch and break it down:

Magnetic forces and electric forces are quite similar, lets take a look at the answers possible:

A. They both have charges

False, magnetic forces do not HAVE charges, but they have an EFFECT on moving charges (that are creating a magnetic field around them).

Why? Electrical forces have positive and negative charges while magnetic forces have a north and south POLE. These two are different forces, therefore magnetic forces do not HAVE charges.

B. In both, opposites attract

We all know opposite poles attract, like poles, don't attract (repelling force). This is true for the magnetic force, now, the electric force, two positively charged particles will exert a repulsive force on one another. DING DING. We have a winner. <u>B is TRUE.</u>

C. In both, opposites repel

False, we already know in electric and magnetic forces that opposites attract and similar charges/poles repel.

D. Neither have charges

False, this is a joke question right? Don't even look at this one!!!!!!!!!


<u>Therefore, </u><u>B</u><u>, is the only true answer that describes how magnetic and electric forces are similar. </u>

Have a nice day!

A block of iron at 33.0°C has mass 2.30 kg. If 3.50×104 J of heat are transferred to the block, what is its resulting temperatur
spayn [35]

Answer:

66.8°C

Explanation:

dQ = m*cp*dT where:

m = mass of block

cp = specific heat of iron

dT = temperature change

-------

dQ = 3.5 10^4 J

cp = 0.45 Kj / Kg = 450 J / Kg

3.5 10^4 = 2.3 * 450 * dt-----dt = 35000 / 450 * 2.3 = 33.8 °

-------

Final temperature = 33 + 33.8 = 66.8 °C
