<span>We know that the momentum keeps constant in a inelastic collisions, so the product of mass and speed do not change:
   m1 * v1 + m2 * v2 = m * v
 1 * 1 + 5 * 0 = (1 + 5) * v
  1 = 6 * v
 v = 1/6 m/s
   So the final speed of the 6 kg chunk will travel at 0.167 m/s</span>

Two moles of helium gas initially at 438 K and 0.44 atm are compressed isothermally to 1.61 atm. Find the final volume of the ga
docker41 [41]

Answer:

44.64335 L

Explanation:

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K = 0.08205 L atm/mol K

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature = 438 K

1 denotes initial

2 denotes final

From ideal gas law we have

PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{2\times 0.08205\times 438}{0.44}\\\Rightarrow V=163.35409\ L

So,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{0.44\times 163.35409}{1.61}\\\Rightarrow V_2=44.64335\ L

The volume of Helium is 44.64335 L

Suppose an electron and a proton move at the same speed. which particle has a longer de broglie wavelength? suppose an electron
BARSIC [14]
When both particles, the electron and the proton move at the same speed, they may have differences with their de Broglie wavelength, the particle that would have a longer wavelength would be the proton since the wavelength is in direct proportionality with the mass of the particle.
