An ideal monatomic gas expands from an initial pressure and volume of 32 atm and 1.0 L to a final volume of 4.0 L. The initial t

emperature of the gas is 300 K. What are the final pressure and temperature of the gas and how much work is done by the gas if the expansion is (a) isothermal, and (b) isobaric

Answer:

(a) P2 = 8 atm, T2 = 300 K, W = 3458.32 J

(b) P2 = 32 atm, T2 = 1200 K, W = 9696 J

Explanation:

P1 = 32 atm

V1 = 1 L

V2 = 4 L

T1 = 300 K

(a) When the process is isothermal

The temperature remains constant, so the final temperature, T2 = 300 k

Use

P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

32 x 1 = P2 x 4

P2 = 8 atm

So, the final pressure is 8 atm and the final temperature is 300 K

Work done in isothermal expansion is given by

W = 2.303 RT log\left ( \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} \right )

W = 2.303 \times 8.314\times 300\times  log 4

W = 3458.32 J

(b) When the process is isobaric

the pressure remains constant, so the final pressure, P2 = 32 atm

Use

V1 / T1 = V2/ T2

1 / 300 = 4 / T2

T2 = 1200 K

Work done in isobaric process

W = P (V2 - V1) = 32 x (4 - 1) = 96 atm L

W = 96 x 1.01 x 10^5 x 10^-3 = 9696 J

A 10 kg turkey, He kicks the 0.5 kg ball with a force of 50N for 0.2 seconds and the ball flies straight away horizontally from
Harman [31]

Answer:

a. 20m/s

b.50N

c. Turkey has a larger mass than the ball. Neglible final acceleration and therefore remains stationery.

Explanation:

a. Given the force as 50N, times as 0.2seconds and the weight of the ball as 0.5 kg, it's final velocity can be calculated as:

F\bigtriangleup t=m\bigtriangleup v\\\\50N\times 0.2s=0.5kg\times \bigtriangleup v\\\\\bigtriangleup v=2(50N\times0.2)\\\\=20m/s

Hence, the velocity of the ball after the kick is 20m/s

b.The force felt by the turkey:

#Applying Newton's 3rd Law of motion, opposite and equal reaction:

-The turkey felt a force of 50N but in the opposite direction to the same force felt by the ball.

c. Using the law of momentum conservation:

-Due to ther external forces exerted on the turkey, it remains stationery.

-The turkey has a larger mass than the ball. It will therefore have a negligible acceleration if any and thus remains stationery.

-Momentum is not conserved due to these external forces.

Why is the following situation impossible? A skater glides along a circular path. She defines a certain point on the circle as h
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A skater glides along a circular path. She defines a certain point on the circle as her origin. Later on, she passes through a point at which the distance she has traveled along the path from the origin is smaller than the magnitude of her displacement vector from the origin.

So here in circular motion of the skater we can see that the total path length of the skater is along the arc of the circle while we can say that displacement is defined as the shortest distance between initial and final position of the object.

So it is not possible in any circle that arc-length is less than the chord joining the two points on the circle

As we know that arc length is given as

L = R\theta

length of chord is given as

L_c = 2Rsin(\frac{\theta}{2})

so here

L > L_c

R\theta > 2R sin(\frac{\theta}{2})

so we have

\frac{\theta}{2} > sin(\frac{\theta}{2})

What are dimensionless quantities??​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Characteristic numbers are dimensionless numbers used in fluid dynamics to describe a character of the flow. To compare a real situation with a small-scale model it is necessary to keep the important characteristic numbers the same. Names of these numbers were standardized in ISO 31, part 12.
