Which process requires water to gain 2260 joules of energy per gram?

1 answer:

4 0

Vaporization - The amount of heat needed to convert unit mass of a liquid into vapor form without a change in temperature is called heat of vaporization. For water the heat of vaporization is 2260 Joules / gram at its normal boiling point .

You exert a 100-N force on a pulley system to lift 300-N. What is the mechanical advantage of this system? How many sections of

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 3

Explanation:

You exert a 100-N force on a pulley system to lift 300-N.

The mechanical advantage of the system is given by the ratio of output force to the input force.

Here, output force = 300 N and input force = 100 N

Mechanical advantage,

$m=\dfrac{300}{100}\\\\m=3$

Mechanical advantage is 3 it means that there are 3 sections of rope support. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 0.5 kg basketball moving 5 m/s to the right collides with a 0.05 kg tennis

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A. 1.4 m/s to the left

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. Let's define the velocity signs according to the direction, if the velocity is to the right, a positive sign will be introduced into the equation, if the velocity is to the left, a negative sign will be introduced into the equation. Two moments will be analyzed in this equation. The moment before the collision and the moment after the collision. The moment before the collision is taken to the left of the equation and the moment after the collision to the right, so we have:

$M_{before} = M_{after}$

where:

M = momentum [kg*m/s]

M = m*v

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

$(m_{1} *v_{1} )-(m_{2} *v_{2})=(m_{1} *v_{3} )+(m_{2} *v_{4})$

where:

m1 = mass of the basketball = 0.5 [kg]

v1 = velocity of the basketball before the collision = 5 [m/s]

m2 = mass of the tennis ball = 0.05 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the tennis ball before the collision = - 30 [m/s]

v3 = velocity of the basketball after the collision [m/s]

v4 = velocity of the tennis ball after the collision = 34 [m/s]

Now replacing and solving:

(0.5*5) - (0.05*30) = (0.5*v3) + (0.05*34)

1 - (0.05*34) = 0.5*v3

- 0.7 = 0.5*v

v = - 1.4 [m/s]

The negative sign means that the movement is towards left

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, $KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k$ = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}$

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}$ (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s$

$p_{e}$ = momentum of an electron

$v_{e}$ = velocity of an electron

$m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg$ = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}$

$v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s$ (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm$

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}$

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}$ (3)

where

$m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg$ = mass of proton

$v_{p}$ = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}$

$v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s$ (4)

Using eqn (4) in (3):

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm$
