In 1995 a research group led by Eric Cornell and Carl Wiemann at the University of Colorado successfully cooled Rubidium atoms t

o the 20-200 nK temperature range. Assuming (incorrectly) that the Rubidium atoms behave like particles of a classical ideal gas, calculate the RMS speed of a Rubidium atom at a temperature of 85.0 nK. In the experiments one particular isotope of Rubidium was used, Rubidium-87. The molar mass of this isotope is 86.91 g/mol.

Answer:

0.00493 m/s

Explanation:

T = Temperature of the isotope = 85 nK

R = Gas constant = 8.341 J/mol K

M = Molar mass of isotope = 86.91 g/mol

Root Mean Square speed is given by

v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 85\times 10^{-9}}{86.91\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.00493\ m/s

The Root Mean Square speed is 0.00493 m/s

Sheila eats an energy bar right before she goes on a run. What energy changes will occur in sheila as she runs after eating?
LiRa [457]
The energy bar eaten by Sheila has chemical energy locked up inside it. This chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy in form of potential and kinetic energy and this in turn is converted to heat energy as the run progresses. Thus, the energy changes are: chemical energy to mechanical energy [kinetic and potential] and finally to heat energy.

Which object has the most gravitational potential energy?
Kipish [7]

Answer: An 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the product of mass of object, height of object and gravitational field.

So, formula to calculate gravitational potential energy is as follows.

U = mgh

where,

m = mass of object

g = gravitational field = 9.81 m/s^{2}

h = height of object

(A) m = 5 kg and h = 2m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 98.1 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(B) m = 8 kg and h = 2 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 156.96 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(C) m = 8 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 235.44 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(D) m = 5 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 147.15 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

Thus, we can conclude that an 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

A 500-kilogram sports car accelerates uni-
timama [110]

Answer:

90 meters

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 30 m/s

t = 6 s

Find:

x

x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t

x = 0 + ½ (30 + 0)(6)

x = 90

The car travels 90 meters.
