Answer:

Work W=4.16 Btu

Heat transfer Q=14.56 Btu

Explanation:

To calculate the work W we will use the given pressure p=30 psia and volume V₁=0.75 ft³ V₂=2.V₁

W=p.(V_{2}-V_{1} )\\W=30psia.(1.5ft^{3}-0.175ft^{3} ).\frac{144in^{2} }{1ft^{2} } .\frac{1Btu}{778lbf.ft}\\ W=4.16Btu

Now for heat transfer

Q=W+m.(u_{2}-u_{1} )\\Q=W+\frac{m.R.(T_{2}- T_{1})}{k-1}\\

The last equation we will rewrite using ideal gas law to calculate heat transfer

Q=W+\frac{p(V_{2}-V_{1} )}{k-1}\\ As\\W=p(V_{2}-V_{1} )\\So\\Q=W+\frac{W}{k-1} \\Q=4.16Btu+\frac{4.16Btu}{1.4-1} \\Q=14.56Btu

If the distance of a galaxy is 2,000 Mpc, how many years back into the past are we looking when we observe this galaxy
ruslelena [56]

The age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.

The given parameters:

  • <em>distance of the galaxy, x = 2,000 Mpc</em>

According Hubble's law the age of the universe is calculated as follows;

v = H₀x

where;

H₀ = 70 km/s/Mpc

T = \frac{x}{V} \\\\T = \frac{x}{xH_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{H_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{70 \ km/s/Mpc} \\\\T = \frac{1 \ sec}{70 \times 3.24 \times 10^{-20} } \\\\T = 4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\\\\T = \frac{4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\  \times \ years}{3600 \ s \ \times\  24\ h\  \times \ 365.25 \ days} \\\\T = 1.397  \times 10^{10} \ years\\\\T = 13.97 \ billion \ years

Thus, the age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.

A 0.153 kg glider is moving to the right on a frictionless, horizontal air track with a speed of 0.700 m/s. It has a head-on col
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

3.1216 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

M1 = 0.153 kg

v1 = 0.7 m/s

M2 = 0.308 kg

v2 = -2.16 m/s

M1v1 + M2v2 = M1V1 + M2V2

0.153 × 0.7 + 0.308 × -2.16 = 0.153 × V1 + 0.308 × V2

= 0.1071 - 0.66528 = 0.153 × V1 + 0.308 × V2

0.153V1 + 0.308V2 = -0.55818. i

For the velocities,

v1 - v2 = -(V1 - V2)

0.7 - (-2.16) = -(V1 - V2)

-(V1 - V2) = 2.86

V2 - V1 = 2.86. ii

Solving equation i and ii simultaneously,

V1 = 3.1216 m/s

V2 = 0.2616 m/s

What is an athlete’s momentum if the athlete has a velocity of 7.5 m/s and has a mass of 70kg?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

525 kg.m/s

Explanation:

★ Momentum = Mass× Velocity

→ P = (7.5 × 70) kg.m/s

→ P = (75 × 7) kg.m/s

→ <u>P</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u>2</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>kg</u><u>.</u><u>m</u><u>/</u><u>s</u>
