Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Refractive index is a number that describes the speed of light through a material.

n = sin I/ sin r

It has no dimension and it is equal to the velocity of light c of a given wavelength in an empty space divided by its velocity v in a substance.

n = c/v

A mole of ideal gas expands at T=27 °C. The pressure changes from 20 atm to 1 atm. What’s the work that the gas has done and wha

Airida [17]

Answer:

The work made by the gas is 7475.69 joules
The heat absorbed is 7475.69 joules

Explanation:

We know that the differential work made by the gas its defined as:

$dW = P \ dv$

We can solve this by integration:

$\Delta W = \int\limits_{s_1}^{s_2}\,dW = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv$

but, first, we need to find the dependence of Pressure with Volume. For this, we can use the ideal gas law

$P \ V = \ n \ R \ T$

$P = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V}$

This give us

$\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V} \ dv$

As n, R and T are constants

$\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \ n \ R \ T \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{1}{V} \ dv$

$\Delta W= \ n \ R \ T \left [ ln (V) \right ]^{v_2}_{v_1}$

$\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T ( ln (v_2) - ln (v_1 )$

$\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T ln (\frac{v_2}{v_1})$

But the volume is:

$V = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P}$

$\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T ln(\frac{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_2}}{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_1}} )$

$\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T ln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})$

Now, lets use the value from the problem.

The temperature its:

$T = 27 \° C = 300.15 \ K$

The ideal gas constant:

$R = 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol}$

So:

$\Delta W = \ 1 mol \ 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol} \ 300.15 \ K ln (\frac{20 atm}{1 atm})$

$\Delta W = 7475.69 joules$

We know that, for an ideal gas, the energy is:

$E= c_v n R T$

where $c_v$ its the internal energy of the gas. As the temperature its constant, we know that the gas must have the energy is constant.

By the first law of thermodynamics, we know

$\Delta E = \Delta Q - \Delta W$

where $\Delta W$ is the Work made by the gas (please, be careful with this sign convention, its not always the same.)

So:

$\Delta E = 0$

$\Delta Q = \Delta W$

A 25-cm rod moves at 5. 0 m/s in a plane perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength 0. 25 t. the rod, velocity vector, and ma

Bad White [126]

Length L = 25 cm = 0.25 m, B = 600 G = 0.06 T ( 1G = 0.0001 T)

emf= 10 V

Solution:

emf = vBL

v= emf / BL

5 = emf/ (0.25 T× 0.25 m)

emf = 0.3125 v

Magnetic field

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, which is a vector field. A force perpendicular to the charge's own velocity and the magnetic field acts on it when the charge is travelling through a magnetic field.
