Consider an ideal monatomic gas of N particles with mass m in thermal equilibrium at a temperature T. The gas is contained in a

cube of side L whose top and bottom are parallel to the Earth’s surface, and the gravitational acceleration is a constant g throughout the box. (a) What is the average kinetic energy of an atom of this gas?

Answer:

K.E.=\dfrac{3}{2}KT

Explanation:

Given that

Number of particle =N

Equilibrium temperature= T

Side of cube = L

Gravitational acceleration =g

The kinetic energy of an atom  given as

K.E.=\dfrac{3}{2}KT

Where

Equilibrium temperature= T

Boltzmann constant =K

        K =1.380649×10−23 J/K

A car is going south on I-69 at 33 m/s (74 mph). The car has good brakes so its maximum braking acceleration is – 8.5 m/s^2 . Tr
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

1.69515 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-33^2}{2\times -8.5}\\\Rightarrow s=64.06\ m

The distance between the traffic and the car after braking is 120-64.06 = 55.94 m

Time = Distance / Speed

\text{Time}=\frac{55.94}{33}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time}=1.69515\ seconds

The reaction time cannot be more than 1.69515 seconds

A car has uniform velocity of 108km/hour. How far does it travel in 1 1/2 minutes
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

2.7km

Explanation:

Two methods: Convert km/hour to km/minutes or convert 3/2 minutes to hours.

Then multiply time to get the distance of the car traveled.

Acid mine drainage is:
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Acid mine drainage is dissolved toxic materials wash from mines into nearby lakes and streams.

Explanation:

Acid mine drainage is the flow of acidic water with pH typically between 2 and 4, and high concentrations of other dissolved toxic materials from mines into nearby lakes and streams. It mainly occurs during metal sulfide mining, when the metal sulfide ore such as pyrite (FeS2) is exposed to water and oxygen from air to produce soluble iron and sulfuric acid.

Microorganisms, especially acidophile bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans grow by pyrite oxidation, i.e., oxidizing the Fe²⁺ in pyrite to Fe³⁺, which again react with pyrite and water to produce sulfuric acid. Then the acidic water flows into nearby water sources and reduces the pH value of water in those sources. As a result, heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, etc in other mineral ores also get dissolved into the water. The action of acidophile bacteria also increases the rate and degree of acid-mine drainage process.

The acid mine drainage causes water pollution and adversely affect the aquatic plants and animals. It also results in the contamination of drinking water, corrosion of infrastructures such as bridges, etc.

A 2,000 kg rocket is launched 12 km straight up at a constant acceleration into the sky at which point the rocket is travelling
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

797700000 J

Explanation:

From the question,

The work done by the rocket, is given as,

W = Ek+Ep............. Equation 1

Where Ek and Ep are the potential and the kinetic energy of the rocket respectively.

Ep = mgh............ Equation 2

Ek = 1/2mv²............. equation 3

Substitute equation 2 and equation 3 into equation 1

W = mgh+1/2mv².............. Equation 4

Where m = mass of the rocket, h = height, v = velocity of the rocket, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 2000 kg, h = 12 km = 12000 m, v = 750 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

W = 2000(12000)(9.8)+1/2(2000)(750²)

W = 235200000+562500000

W = 797700000 J
