<span>Answer: We have pressure from the weight of the piston + atmospheric pressure acting on the gas pressure from the piston... P = F / area = mass x acceleration due to gravity / area P = (24 kg x 9.80 m/s²) / (90 cm² x (1m/100cm)²) = 26133 N/m² = 2.61x10^4 Pa = 26.1 kPa total pressure acting on the gas = 26+85 kPa = 111 kPa then.. via clausius clapeyron equation.. ln(P1 / P2) = (dHvap / R) x (1 / T2 - 1 / T1) and if I pick say.. the normal boiling point of water for P2, T2.. then... P1 = 111 kPa P2 = 101.325 kPa dHvap = 40680 J/mole R = 8.314 J/moleK T2 = 373.15 K T1 = ?? ---> T1 = 102.46°</span>

How can you change the phases of matter using thermal energy
Leokris [45]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance.

A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to
katovenus [111]
The correct answer should be c.The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

If the temperature drops that means that the molecules are coming together. If the temperature rises then it means that the molecules are spreading. If the kinetic energy falls down that means that they are slower which means that they are cooler.

The electrons in the beam of a television tube have an energy of 19.0 keV. The tube is oriented so that the electrons move horiz
igomit [66]

Answer:

The direction is due south

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The energy of the electron is E = 19.0keV = 19.0 *10^3 eV

      The earths magnetic field is B = 42.3 \muT = 42.3 *10^{-6} T

     

Generally the force on the electron is perpendicular to the velocity of the elecrton and the magnetic field and this is mathematically reresented as

          \= F = q (\= v * \=B)

On the first uploaded image is an  illustration of the movement of the electron

    Looking at the diagram  we can see that in terms of direction  the magnetic force  is

             \= F  =q(\=v * \= B)= -( -\r i * - \r k)

                = -(- (\r i * \r k))

generally  i cross k = -j

      so the equation above becomes

             \= F = -(-(- \r j))

                = - \r j

This show that the direction is towards the south
