The atmosphere of earth does not escape into the space but remains attached to earth's surface why??
Alexeev081 [22]

Just like any other gas or mixture of gases, the gas molecules are
zipping around in all different directions and with a whole range of
different speeds. 

Those that happen to be moving at a speed greater than the Earth's
"escape velocity", AND are pointed away from Earth, AND don't hit
any other molecules before they escape, are lost.

With the combination of Earth's escape velocity, and the temperatures,
thickness, and density of the atmosphere, that process happens slowly
enough to have maintained an atmosphere around this planet until now.

Personally, I hope it hangs around for a while longer.  But with the constant
increase in temperature that's been going on, you never know . . .

Two moles of helium are initially at a temperature of 21.0 ∘Cand occupy a volume of 3.30×10−2 m3 . The helium first expands at c
Anettt [7]

Answer:

(B) The total internal energy of the helium is 4888.6 Joules

(C) The total work done by the helium is 2959.25 Joules

(D) The final volume of the helium is 0.066 cubic meter

Explanation:

(B) ∆U = P(V2 - V1)

From ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

T1 = 21°C = 294K, V1 = 0.033m^3, n = 2moles, V2 = 2× 0.033=0.066m^3

P = nRT ÷ V = (2×8.314×294) ÷ 0.033 = 148140.4 Pascal

∆U = 148140.4(0.066 - 0.033) = 4888.6 Joules

(C) P2 = P1(V1÷V2)^1.4 =148140.4(0.033÷0.066)^1.4= 148140.4×0.379=56134.7 Pascal

Assuming a closed system

(C) Wc = (P1V1 - P2V2) ÷ 0.4 = (148140.4×0.033 - 56134.7×0.066) ÷ 0.4 = (4888.6 - 3704.9) ÷ 0.4 = 1183.7 ÷ 0.4 = 2959.25 Joules

(C) Final volume = 2×initial volume = 2×0.033= 0.066 cubic meter

You are pushing a 60 kg block of ice across the ground. You exert a constant force of 9 N on the block of ice. You let go after
kotykmax [81]

Answer: d = 33 cm or 0.33 m

Explanation: In physics, Work is the amount of energy transferred to an object to make it move. It can be expressed by:

W = F.d.cosθ

F is the force applied to the object, d is the displacement and θ is the angle formed between the force and the displacement.

For the ice block, the angle is 0, i.e., force and distance are at the same direction, so:

W = F.d.cos(0)

W = F.d

To determine d:

d = \frac{W}{F}

d = \frac{3}{9}

d = 0.33 m

The distance d the block ice moved is 33 cm.

Patrick is repairing the roof on his house. He uses a hammer having a mass of 1 kilogram. While working at the apex of the roof,
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

72 joules

Explanation:

The potential energy of that hammer is a function of its displacement against gravity. Considering that it fell with a velocity of 12 m/s, it was its displacement against gravity that gave it this velocity. It will continue to move until its displacement to gravity is zero.

since the body is in motion; it has converted its potential energy (mgh, m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height) to kinetic energy (energy due to motion, 1/2mv^2; m = mass, v = velocity or speed)

therefore the potential energy is equal to kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2mv^2 = 1/2 *1kg* 12*12 = 72 joules.
