The answer is: [D]: "the position of the moon each month in relation to THE SUN AND THE MOON" .

Note of interest: The origin of the word "month" was: "moon-th" — but shortened to "month" — (no coincidence!).

A gas has a pressure of 48atm in a 15.5L container. It was found that at 25∘C the gas occupied a volume of 25L and had a pressur

Answer:

130.165636364°C

Explanation:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant = 0.082 L atm/mol K

From ideal gas law we have

$PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{22\times 25}{0.082\times (25+273.15)}\\\Rightarrow n=22.496451696\ moles$

$PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{PV}{nR}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{48\times 15.5}{22.496451696\times 0.082}\\\Rightarrow T=403.315636364\ K$

The initial temperature is $403.315636364-273.15=130.165636364\ ^{\circ}C$

M (b) Calculate the speed of an electron that is accelerated through the same electric potential difference.

MaRussiya [10]

The speed of a electron that is accelerated from rest through an electric potential difference of 120 V is $6.49\times10^6m/s$

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the electron?</h3>

We know, that the energy of the system is always conserved.

Using the Law of Conservation of energy,

$\triangle K+\triangle$ U=0

Here, K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

Now, substituting the formula of U and K, we get:

$(\frac{1}{2} mv^2)+(-q\triangle V)$ =0------(1)

Here,

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

q is the charge on the electron

V is the potential difference

Let $v_f$ and $v_i$ represent the final and initial speed.

Here, $v_i$ =0

Solving for $v_f$ , we get:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{-2q\triangle V}{m} }$

$=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1.602\times10^{-19}\times 120}{9.109\times10^{-31}} }$

=6.49 $\times10^6$ m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Gravitational Potential Energy</u>

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is the energy stored in an object due to its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.

It can be calculated with the equation:

U=m.g.h

Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or $9.8 m/s^2$ .

The weight of an object of mass m is:

W = m.g

Thus, the GPE is:

U=W.h

Solving for h:

$\displaystyle h=\frac{U}{W}$

The weight of the owl is W=40 N and its GPE is U=800 J.

$\displaystyle h=\frac{800}{40}=20$

h = 20 m
