How much work (in J) is required to expand the volume of a pump from 0.0 L to 2.7 L against an external pressure of 1.0 atm?

Physics

spin [16.1K]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

-2.79 x 10²J

Explanation:

using the pressure volume work formula which states that

work = -PΔV

= -(1.0 atm) (2.7-0.0)L = -2.7L . atm

Convert litre.atmosphere to Joules.

1 L . atm = 101.325 joules

-2.75 L .atm = -2.75 x 101.325 = -278.64375 =

Work = -2.79 x 10²J

A 2.0 kg mass weighs 10 Newtons on planet X. what is the acceleration due to gravity on planet X? Show the work.

KengaRu [80]

Answer: The gravitational acceleration on planet X is 5 N/kg

On Earth (with the gravitational accelartion g_E) the mass of 2kg will correspond to

$F_E = m\cdot g_E = 2.0 \mbox{kg}\cdot 9.8 \frac{N}{kg} = 19.6 N$

On planet X we are told the same measure is only 10N. Since there is a proportional relationship between g and F, we can calculate g_X:

$\frac{F_E}{g_E}=\frac{F_X}{g_X} \implies\\g_x = \frac{g_E\cdot F_X}{F_E}=\frac{9.8 N/kg \cdot 10 N }{19.6N}=5 \frac{N}{kg}$

The brief wave of positive electrical charge that sweeps down the axon is _____.

kobusy [5.1K]

I believe Action potential is the brief wave of positive charge that sweeps down the axon. Axon is part of the neuron that conducts impulses from the dendrites towards the cell body along the neuron. The action potential is brief since the sodium channels can only stay open for a very brief amount of time. As it travels along the neuron there is a change in polarity across the membrane of the axon .
