Answer:

The mean free path = 2.16*10^-6 m

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Pressure of gas P = 100 kPa

Temperature T = 300 K

collision cross section, σ = 2.0*10^-20 m2

Boltzmann constant, k = 1.38*10^-23 J/K

<u>To determine:</u>

The mean free path, λ

<u>Calculation:</u>

The mean free path is related to the collision cross section by the following equation:

\lambda =\frac{1}{n\sigma }------(1)

where n = number density

n = \frac{P}{kT}-----(2)

Substituting for P, k and T in equation (2) gives:

n = \frac{100,000 Pa}{1.38*10^{-23} J/K*300K} =2.42*10^{25}\  m^{3}

Next, substituting for n and σ in equation (1) gives:

\lambda =\frac{1}{2.42*10^{25}m^{-3}* .0*10^{-20}m^{2}}=2.1*10^{-6}m

Jenna built the electrical circuit seen here. What would happen to the electrical energy if Jenna removed one of the clips on th
otez555 [7]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An electric circuit works well when all the connections are complete but if any of the connections in the circuit is loose or disconnected then it is possible that current will not flow from the circuit.

Therefore, when Jenna removed one of the clips on the battery then circuit becomes incomplete and as a result there will no flow of current.

Thus, we can conclude that the electrical energy would stop because the circuit is incomplete.

The addition of 250.0 J to 30.0 g of copper initially at 22.0°C will change its temperature to what final value? (Specific heat
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Final temperature = 43.53^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat added, Q = 250 J

Mass, m = 30 g

Initial temperature, T₁ = 22°C

The Specific heat of Cu= 0.387 J/g °C

We know that, heat added due to the change in temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_2-T_1)\\\\\dfrac{Q}{mc}=(T_2-T_1)\\\\T_2=\dfrac{Q}{mc}+T_1

Put all the values,

T_2=\dfrac{250}{30\times 0.387}+22\\\\=43.53^{\circ} C

So, the final temperature is equal to 43.53^{\circ} C.
