Imagine how mercury might be different if it had the same mass as earth. Explain.

1 answer:

4 0

I believe if it were heavier with more mass, then the sun would pull it in and there would be no mercury. It might also be hotter.

An elevator car, with a mass of 450 kg is suspended by a single cable. At time = 0s, the elevator car is raised upward. The tens

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

33.33 m/s

Explanation:

m = 450 kg. T = 5000 N, t = 3 seconds,

let the net acceleration is a.

T = m a

a = 5000 / 450 = 11.11 m/s^2

u = 0 , v = ?

Let v be the velocity after 3 seconds.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 0 + 11.11 x 3 = 33.33 m/s

The smaller the area the greater the pressure, while the bigger the smaller the pressure. So they are inversely proportional

Cuanto cambia la entropía de 0.50 kg de vapor de mercurio [Lv: 2.7 x 10⁵ j/kg ] al calentarse en su punto de ebullición de 357°

lord [1]

Answer:

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

Explanation:

Por definición de entropía ( $S$ ), medida en joules por Kelvin, tenemos la siguiente expresión:

$dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T}$ (1)

Donde:

$Q$ - Ganancia de calor, en joules.

$T$ - Temperatura del sistema, en Kelvin.

Ampliamos (1) por la definición de calor latente:

$dS = \frac{L_{v}}{T}\cdot dm$ (1b)

Donde:

$m$ - Masa del sistema, en kilogramos.

$L_{v}$ - Calor latente de vaporización, en joules

Puesto que no existe cambio en la temperatura durante el proceso de vaporización, transformamos la expresión diferencial en expresión de diferencia, es decir:

$\Delta S = \frac{\Delta m \cdot L_{v}}{T}$

Como vemos, el cambio de la entropía asociada al cambio de fase del mercurio es directamente proporcional a la masa del sistema. Si tenemos que $m = 0.50\,kg$ , $L_{v} = 2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg}$ and $T = 630.15\,K$ , entonces el cambio de entropía es:

$\Delta S = \frac{(0.50\,kg)\cdot \left(2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg} \right)}{630.15\,K}$

$\Delta S = 214.235 \,\frac{J}{K}$

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

F = G m₁ M / r²

W = ∫ F. dr

W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

W = mg

m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

g_moom = 165 32/1000

.g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system

W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

W_capsule = 454 N

W = m_capsule g

m_capsule = W / g

m = 454 /9.8

m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327 7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

W = 1,307 10⁶ J

How will frost on the wings of an airplane affect takeoff performance?

san4es73 [151]

Frost will disturb the smooth flow of air over the wing, unpleasantly distressing its lifting competence. In other words, this spoils the even flow of air over the wings, by this means decreasing lifting capability. Also, frost may avoid the airplane from becoming flying at normal departure speed.
