Calculate the root mean square velocity of nitrogen molecules at 25°c.

Physics

Answer:

515.22 m/s

Explanation:

Formula for root mean square velocity is SQRT (3RT/M)

Where,

R = Rydberg's constant = 8.314 Kg. m²/ s². K. mol

T = Temperature in Kelvin

M = Molar mass in Kg/mol

First calculate molar mass,

As nitrogen is diatomic molecule,

Its molar mass is

M = 2(14) = 28 g/mol

Convert unit into Kg/mol

28 g/mol x 1 Kg/1000g = 2.8x10¯² Kg/mol

Convert temperature into kelvin

T = 25 + 273 = 298K

Put all values in formula

Vrms = SQRT (3RT/M)

Vrms = SQRT (3x8.314x298/2.8x10¯²)

Vrms = SQRT (265454. 14)

Vrms = 515.22 m/s

It is measured that 3/4 of a body's volume is submerged in oil of density 800kg/m³
Evgesh-ka [11]

Complete question:

It is measured that 3/4 of a body's volume is submerged in oil of density 800kg/m³. What is the specific gravity of oil?

Answer:

The specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

Explanation:

Given;

density of the oil, \rho_o = 800 kg/m³

density of water, \rho_w = 1000 kg/m³

The specific gravity of any substance is the ratio of the substance density to the density of water.

Specific gravity of the oil = density of the oil / density of water

Specific gravity of the oil = 800/1000

Specific gravity of the oil = 0.8

Therefore, the specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

If a machine is doing 500 J of work with 75 watts of power, how long did it take to complete its task?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

time = 6.67secs

Explanation:

power = workdone( energy) / time

therefore :

Time = workdone / power

time = 500 / 75

time = 6.67secs

Why does a glass rod become positively charged when it is rubbed with a silk cloth?
slavikrds [6]
The core has positive charge<span>, the electrons have negative </span>charge. When you are rubbing<span> the </span>glass rod<span> with the </span>silk cloth<span>, electrons are stripped away from the atoms in the </span>glass<span> and transferred to the </span>silk cloth<span>. This leaves the </span>glass rod<span> with more </span>positive<span> than negative </span>charge<span>, so you get a net </span>positive charge<span>.</span>
