Answer:

(B) The wavelength that a star radiates the most energy is inversely proportional to the temperature.

Explanation:

As we know that

According to Wien's law wavelength is inverse proportional to the temperature .

λ.T = Constant.

λ.∝ 1 /T

As we know that star radiates wavelength and this wavelength is inverse proportional to the temperature of the star.

The temperature of cool star is cooler than the temperature of hot star that is cool star looks red and hot star looks blue.Cool star have low energy and hot star have high energy.

So option B is correct.

(B) The wavelength that a star radiates the most energy is inversely proportional to the temperature.

Why the change of the pressure and temperature affect the velocity of the sound

Marysya12 [62]

<h2> $\large{\underbrace{\underline{\fcolorbox{White}{aqua}{\bf{ANSWER♥︎}}}}}$ </h2>

<u>Air pressure has no effect at all in an ideal gas approximation. This is because pressure and density both contribute to sound velocity equally, and in an ideal gas the two effects cancel out, leaving only the effect of temperature. Sound usually travels more slowly with greater altitude, due to reduced temperature.</u>

The Assignment: A fixed quantity of an ideal gas (R 0.28 kJ/kgK; Cv-0.71kJ/kgK) is expanded from an initial condition of 35 bar,

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Index of expansion: 4.93

Δu = -340.8 kJ/kg

q = 232.2 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The index of expansion is the relationship of pressures:

pi/pf

The ideal gas equation:

p1*v1/T1 = p2*v2/T2

p2 = p1*v1*T2/(T2*v2)

500 C = 773 K

20 C = 293 K

p2 = 35*0.1*773/(293*1.3) = 7.1 bar

The index of expansion then is 35/7.1 = 4.93

The variation of specific internal energy is:

Δu = Cv * Δt

Δu = 0.71 * (20 - 500) = -340.8 kJ/kg

The first law of thermodynamics

q = l + Δu

The work will be the expansion work

l = p2*v2 - p1*v1

35 bar = 3500000 Pa

7.1 bar = 710000 Pa

q = p2*v2 - p1*v1 + Δu

q = 710000*1.3 - 3500000*0.1 - 340800 = 232200 J/kg = 232.2 kJ/kg

When I throw a ball in the air at what point will it have the least kinetic energy

pickupchik [31]

When you throw the ball in the air it is considered kinetic energy. Once the ball reaches its max height, it stops moving and all kinetic energy turns into potential energy. So when the ball is at its highest point.
