Answer: c. the molecules with the highest energy evaporate first, lowering the temperature of the sample
Explanation:
The process by which liquid starts to change into vapor phase at any temperature is known as evaporation.
During evaporation , the molecules which possess higher energies escape from the upper layer into vapor phase. the molecules which escape draw energy from surroundings and thus decrease the energy of the surroundings and hence lead to decrease in temperature.
As temperature of the system is directly proportional to the energy of the system , thus decrease in energy leads to decrease in temperature.
K.E. = Kinetic energy
T = temperature
R= gas constant
Answer:
0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.
Explanation:
First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:
P₁ = F/A
where,
P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?
F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²
P₁ = 0.088 psi
Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.
P₂ = F/A
where,
P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?
F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²
P₂ = 0.144 psi
Now, the difference between both pressures is:
ΔP = P₂ - P₁
ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi
<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>
Distance= speed (multiplied by) time
<h2>
Answer: Pulsars</h2>
A <u>pulsar</u> is a neutron star that emits very intense electromagnetic radiation at short and periodic intervals ( rotating really fast) due to its intense magnetic field that induces this emission.
Nevertheless, it is important to note that all pulsars are neutron stars, but not all neutron stars are pulsars.
Let's clarify:
A neutron star, is the name given to the remains of a supernova. In itself it is the result of the gravitational collapse of a massive supergiant star after exhausting the fuel in its core.
Neutron stars have a small size for their very high density and they rotate at a huge speed.
However, the way to know that a pulsar is a neutron star is because of its high rotating speed.
Answer:
The sphere C carries no net charge.
Explanation:
- When brougth close to the charged sphere A, as charges can move freely in a conductor, a charge equal and opposite to the one on the sphere A, appears on the sphere B surface facing to the sphere A.
- As sphere B must remain neutral (due to the principle of conservation of charge) an equal charge, but of opposite sign, goes to the surface also, on the opposite part of the sphere.
- If sphere A is removed, a charge movement happens in the sphere B, in such a way, that no net charge remains on the surface.
- If in such state, if the sphere B (assumed again uncharged completely, without any local charges on the surface), is touched by an initially uncharged sphere C, due to the conservation of charge principle, no net charge can be built on sphere C.
