Answer:

Zero Kelvin

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of the particles in a gas is related to the absolute temperature of the gas by (for an ideal monoatomic gas):

$E_K = \frac{3}{2}kT$

where

k is the Boltzmann constant

T is the absolute temperature

The average kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the particles due to their motion; we see that this energy becomes zero when T = 0, which means when the substance reaches a temperature of zero Kelvin. Therefore, this means that at this temperature all the particles stop moving.

The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170 m on a day when its temperature is 35.0°C. What will the change in i

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The deformation is 0.088289 m

The final height of the monument is 170-0.088289 = 169.911702 m

Explanation:

Thermal coefficient of marble varies between (5.5 - 14.1) ×10⁻⁶/K = α

So, let us take the average value

(5.5+14.1)/2 = 9.8×10⁻⁶ /K

Change in temperature = 35-(-18) = 53 K = ΔT

Original length = 170 m = L

Linear thermal expansion

$\frac{\Delta L}{L} = \alpha\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=\frac{\alpha\Delta T}{L}\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=9.8\times 10^{-6}\times 53\times 170$

The deformation is 0.088289 m

The final height of the monument is 170-0.088289 = 169.911702 m (subtraction because of cooling)

A rocket ship is accelerating at 200 m/s2, its mas is 135,000,000 kg. What is the force generated by this acceleration?

Rina8888 [55]

Acceleration does NOT "generate" force. Acceleration NEEDS force to make it happen. Without force ... provided by something else ... acceleration can't happen.

The force NEEDED to accelerate a mass with a certain acceleration is

Force needed = (mass) times (acceleration)

For the rocket ship in the question,

Force = (135,000,000 kg) times (200 m/s²)

Force = (135,000,000 x 200) kg-m/s²

Force = 27 Giga-Newtons (27,000,000,000 Newtons)

The gas-generator cycle F-1 rocket engine, developed in the US by Rocketdyne in the late 1950s, was used in the Saturn V rocket, the main launch vehicle of NASA's Apollo moon lander program . Five F-1 engines were used in the first stage of each Saturn V.

==> The thrust of each F-1 engine at full throttle is 7,770 kilo-Newtons.

It would take 3,475 of these F-1 rocket engines, running full-throttle, to provide the force calculated in the answer to this question. If you didn't have 3,475 F-1 rocket engines, then you couldn't accelerate 135,000,000 kg at 200 m/s².

(And by the way ... the mass of each F-1 engine is 8,400 kg. So 3,475 engines alone account for 22% of the mass you're trying to accelerate. And don't even get me started about the mass of the FUEL you'd need to carry.)

The plates of a spherical capacitor have radii 6.25 cm and 15.0 crn. The space between the two spheres is filled with a material

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Explanation:

Radius = R₁ = 6.25 cm = 6.25×10⁻² m

Radius = R₂ = 15 cm = 15×10⁻² m

Dielectric constant = k = 4.8

Electric constant = ε₀ = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

ε/ε₀=k

ε=kε₀

$Capacitance\ (C)=\frac{4\pi k\epsilon_0 R_1\times R_2}{R_2-R_1}\\\Rightarrow C=\frac{4\pi 4.8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 15\times 10^{-2}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{15\times 10^{-2}-6.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow C=0.572\times 10^{-10}\ Farad$

∴ Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad
