The fact that no heat is transferred between a system and its surroundings refers to an adiabatic free expansion.

 

In gas, the adiabatic compression creates an increase in the temperature while it causes a drop in temperature there is adiabatic expansion against pressure, or a spring.

<span>

Before being allowed to expand in vacuum, the gas is first contained in an insulated container.</span>

 

The work made by or on the system is zero since there is no external pressure for the gas to enlarge on against. The first law of thermodynamics then insinuates that zero is the net internal energy change of the system since the process does not incorporate any work or heat transfer.

A gas is placed in a storage tank at a pressure of 49.2 atm at 39.0C . As a safety device, a small metal plug in the tank is mad
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=49.2 atm\\T_1=39.0^oC = 312.15 K\\P_2=?\\T_2=198^oC=471.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{49.2atm }{312.15 K}=\frac{P_2}{471.15 K}\\\\P_2=74.26 atm

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into electrical impulse
Kryger [21]
The part of the ear where the sound wave converted into electrical impulse would be the cochlea. This part is the  auditory portion of the inner ear which produces nerve impulses in response to sound vibrations. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
