Physics question, answer completely with work
1 answer:
The force is 2.0 N east
Explanation:
The impulse exerted by a force is defined as the product between the force itself and the time interval during which the force is applied. Mathematically, it is equal to the change in momentum experienced by the object on which the force is acting:
Where
I is the impulse
F is the force
is the time interval during which the force is applied
is the change in momentum
In this problem,
is the time interval
(east) is the impulse
Therefore, the magnitude of the force is
And the direction is the same as the impulse (east).

The equation of state for an ideal gas is
where p is the gas pressure, V the volume, n the number of moles, R the gas constant and T the temperature.
The equation of state for the initial condition of the gas is
(1)
While the same equation for the final condition is
(2)
We know that in the final condition, half of the mass of the gas is escaped. This means that the final volume of the gas is half of the initial volume, and also that the final number of moles is half the initial number of moles, so we can write:
If we substitute these relationship inside (1), and we divide (1) by (2), we get
And since the initial temperature of the gas is
, we can find the final temperature of the gas:
where p is the gas pressure, V the volume, n the number of moles, R the gas constant and T the temperature.
