8 0

       (186,000 mi/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (365 da/yr)

  =   (186,000 x 3,600 x 24 x 365)  mi/yr

  =      5,865,696,000,000  miles per year  (rounded to the nearest million miles)

Six moles of an ideal gas are in a cylinder fitted at one end with a movable piston. The initial temperature of the gas is 28.0
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

63.5 °C

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of work done is shown below as:

w=P\times \Delta V

Where, P is the pressure

\Delta V is the change in volume

Also,

Considering the ideal gas equation as:-

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J/ K mol

So,

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

Also, for change in volume at constant pressure, the above equation can be written as;-

\Delta V=\frac{nR\times \Delta T}{P}

So, putting in the expression of the work done, we get that:-

w=P\times \frac{nR\times \Delta T}{P}=nR\times \Delta T

Given, initial temperature = 28.0 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (28.0 + 273.15) K = 301.15 K

W=1770 J

n = 6 moles

So,

1770\ J=6 moles\times 8.314\ J/ Kmol \times (T_2-301.15\ K)

Thus,

T_2=301.15\ K+\frac{1770}{6\times 8.314}\ K

T_2=336.63\ K

The temperature in Celsius = 336.63-273.15 °C = 63.5 °C

<u>The final temperature is:- 63.5 °C</u>

An object with a mass of m = 3.85 kg is suspended at rest between the ceiling and the floor by two thin vertical ropes.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

<h3>Tension in the upper rope</h3>

The tension in the upper rope is calculated as follows;

T(u) = T(d)+ mg

where;

  • T(u) is tension in upper rope
  • T(d) is tension in lower rope

T(u) = 12.8 N + 3.85(9.8)

T(u) = 50.53 N

Thus, the tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

A circular ring with area 4.45 cm2 is carrying a current of 13.5 A. The ring, initially at rest, is immersed in a region of unif
Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ ) N.m

b) ΔU = -0.000747871 J

c)  w = 47.97 rad / s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The area of the circular ring, A = 4.45 cm^2

- The current carried by circular ring, I = 13.5 Amps

- The magnetic field strength, vec ( B ) = (1.05×10−2T).(12i^+3j^−4k^)

- The magnetic moment initial orientation, vec ( μi ) = μ.(−0.8i^+0.6j^)  

- The magnetic moment final orientation, vec ( μf ) = -μ k^

- The inertia of ring, T = 6.50×10^−7 kg⋅m2

Solution:-

- First we will determine the magnitude of magnetic moment ( μ ) from the following relation:

                    μ = N*I*A

Where,

           N: The number of turns

           I : Current in coil

           A: the cross sectional area of coil

- Use the given values and determine the magnitude ( μ ) for a single coil i.e ( N = 1 ):

                    μ = 1*( 13.5 ) * ( 4.45 / 100^2 )

                    μ = 0.0060075 A-m^2

- From definition the torque on the ring is the determined from cross product of the magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ). The torque on the ring in initial position:

             vec ( τi ) = vec ( μi ) x vec ( B )

              = 0.0060075*( -0.8 i^ + 0.6 j^ ) x 0.0105*( 12 i^ + 3 j^ -4 k^ )

              = ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) x ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

- Perform cross product:

          \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\-0.004806&0.0036045&0\\0.126&0.0315&-0.042\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-0.00015139\\-0.00020185\\-0.00060556\end{array}\right] \\\\

- The initial torque ( τi ) is written as follows:

           vec ( τi ) = ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ )

           

- The magnetic potential energy ( U ) is the dot product of magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ):

- The initial potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Ui ) is:

          Ui = - vec ( μi ) . vec ( B )

          Ui =- ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Ui = -[( -0.004806*0.126 ) + ( 0.0036045*0.0315 ) + ( 0*-0.042 )]

          Ui = - [(-0.000605556 + 0.00011)]

          Ui = 0.000495556 J

- The final potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Uf ) is determined in the similar manner after the ring is rotated by 90 degrees with a new magnetic moment orientation ( μf ) :

          Uf = - vec ( μf ) . vec ( B )

          Uf = - ( -0.0060075 k^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Uf = - [( 0*0.126 ) + ( 0*0.0315 ) + ( -0.0060075*-0.042 ) ]

          Uf = -0.000252315 J

- The decrease in magnetic potential energy of the ring is arithmetically determined:

          ΔU = Uf - Ui

          ΔU = -0.000252315 - 0.000495556  

          ΔU = -0.000747871 J

Answer: There was a decrease of ΔU = -0.000747871 J of potential energy stored in the ring.

- We will consider the system to be isolated from any fictitious forces and gravitational effects are negligible on the current carrying ring.

- The conservation of magnetic potential ( U ) energy in the form of Kinetic energy ( Ek ) is valid for the given application:

                Ui + Eki = Uf + Ekf

Where,

             Eki : The initial kinetic energy ( initially at rest ) = 0

             Ekf : The final kinetic energy at second position

- The loss in potential energy stored is due to the conversion of potential energy into rotational kinetic energy of current carrying ring.    

               -ΔU = Ekf

                0.5*T*w^2 = -ΔU

                w^2 = -ΔU*2 / T

Where,

                w: The angular speed at second position

               w = √(0.000747871*2 / 6.50×10^−7)

              w = 47.97 rad / s

A proton is moving toward a second, stationary proton. What happens as the protons get closer?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A. Kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, and the proton moves more slowly.

Explanation:

When a moving proton is brought close to a stationary one, the kinetic energy of the moving one is converted to electric potential  and the proton moves more slowly.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. A moving proton will possess this form of energy.

Two protons according to coulombs law will repel each other with an electrostatic force because they both have similar charges. This will increase their electric potential energy of both of them.

Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. As it increases, the motion of a body will be slower and it will tend towards being stationary.
