Would water molecules in Venus’ atmosphere, whose temperature is 740 K, escape into outer space? A water molecule has a mass tha
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus.

Explanation:

The average speed of gas molecules is given by:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and M the molar mass of the gas.

We know that a water molecule has a mass that is 18 times that of a hydrogen atom:

M_H=1.01*10^{-3}\frac{kg}{mol}\\M_{H2O}=18M_H=0.02\frac{kg}{mol}

So, we have:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3(8.314\frac{J}{mol \cdot K})740K}{0.02\frac{kg}{mol}}}\\v_{rms}=960.65\frac{m}{s}*\frac{1km}{1000m}=0.96\frac{km}{s}

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus:

10\frac{km}{s}*\frac{1}{6}=1.6\frac{km}{s}\\0.96\frac{km}{s}

An object of mass 4kg is moving along a horizontal plane. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.2 find the friction force
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The friction force acting on the object is 7.84 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of object, m = 4 kg

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.2

The friction force acting on the object is calculated as;

F = μkN

F = μkmg

where;

F is the frictional force

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

F = 0.2 x 4 x 9.8

F = 7.84 N

Therefore, the friction force acting on the object is 7.84 N

The amplitude of a standing sound wave in a long pipe closed at the left end is sketched below.
ollegr [7]

(1) The harmonic number for the mode of oscillation is 3.

(2) The pitch (frequency) of the sound is 579.55 Hz

(3) The level of the water inside the vertical pipe is 0.1 m.

<h3>The harmonic number</h3>

The harmonic number for the mode of oscillation illustrated for the closed pipe is 3.

<h3>Frequency of the wave</h3>

The pitch (frequency) of the sound is calculated from third harmonic formula;

f = 3v/4L

where;

  • v is speed of sound
  • L is length of the pipe

f = (3 x 340) / (4 x 0.44)

f = 579.55 Hz

<h3>level of the water</h3>

wave equation for first harmonic of a closed pipe is given as

f  = v/(4L)

251.1  = 340/(4L)

4L = 340/251.1

4L = 1.35

L = 1.35/4

L = 0.34 m

level of water = 0.44 m - 0.34 m = 0.1 m

Thus, the level of the water inside the vertical pipe is 0.1 m.
