<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>

A 1.1-kg object is suspended from a vertical spring whose spring constant is 120 N/m. (a) Find the amount by which the spring is
andriy [413]

Answer:

e = 0.0898m

v = 2.07m/s

Explanation:

a) According to Hooke's law

F = ke

e is the extension

k is the spring constant

Since F = mg

mg = ke

e = mg/k

Substitute the given value

e = 1.1(9.8)/120

e = 10.78/120

e = 0.0898m

Hence it is stretched by 0.0898m from its unstrained length

2) Total Energy = PE+KE+Elastic potential

Total Energy = mgh +1/2mv²+1/2ke²

Substitute the given value

5.0= 1.1(9.8)(0.2)+1/2(1.1)v²+1/2(120)(0.0898)²

Solve for v

5.0 = 2.156+0.55v²+0.48338

5.0-2.156-0.48338= 0.55v²

2.36 =0.55v²

v² = 2.36/0.55

v² = 4.29

v ,= √4.29

v = 2.07m/s

Hence the required velocity is 9.28m/s

Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.

The answer is b) venus because the period rotation is also referred to as a day so if venus’ period of rotation is 243 [earth] days and its year is 225 [earth] days, then the period of rotation is longer.
