Suppose you could suddenly increase the speed of every molecule in a gas by a factor of 2. Would the gas pressure increase by a

factor of 2 1/2, 2, or 2^2?

<h2>The pressure will become double </h2>

Explanation:

The gas pressure is directly proportional to the mean root square velocity of the constituent molecules of gas .

P ∝ \sqrt{\frac{C_1^2+C_2^2+C_3^2----C_n^2}{n} }      I

Here C₁ , C₂ ------------ Cₙ is the velocities of molecules .

By making these velocities double

The pressure P₀ ∝ 2\sqrt{\frac{C_1^2+C_2^2+C_3^2----C_n^2}{n} }          II

By dividing II by I

P₀ = 2 P

Thus pressure will become double than its previous value

A person gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. The cart travels for
mash [69]

Answer:

Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

Explanation:

  • Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
  • As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
  • So, if it is gradually slowing, there must  be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
  • This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
  • As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
  • This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.

Consider two points in an electric field. The potential at point 1, V1, is 33 V. The potential at point 2, V2, is 175 V. An elec
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

Since the electric potential at point 1 is V₁ = 33 V and the electric potential at point 2 is V₂ = 175 V, when the electron is accelerated from point 1 to point 2, there is a change in electric potential ΔV which is given by ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

ΔV = 175 V - 33 V.

ΔV = 142 V

The change in electric potential energy ΔU = eΔV = e(V₂ - V₁) where e = electron charge = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and ΔV = electric potential change from point 1 to point 2 = 142 V.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 142 V

ΔU = -227.484 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

ΔU = -2.27484 × 10⁻²¹ J

ΔU ≅ -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

So, the required equation for the electric potential energy change is

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Who represents the worst of the iron age in his attempt to feed jupiter once living flesh?
wolverine [178]

Lycaon represents the worst of the iron age in his attempt to feed jupiter once living flesh.

<h3>What is iron age?</h3>

The iron Age is the final epoch of the three-age division of the prehistory and protohistory of humanity.

It was preceded by the Stone Age, and the Bronze Age.

Who is lycaon?

In Greek mythology, Lycaon was a king of Arcadia who, in the most popular version of the myth, tested Zeus' omniscience by serving him the roasted flesh of Lycaon's own son Nyctimus, in order to see whether Zeus was truly all-knowing.

Thus, Lycaon represents the worst of the iron age in his attempt to feed jupiter once living flesh.
