If the temperature of a volume of ideal gas increases for 100°C to 200°C, what happens to the average kinetic energy of the mole
mina [271]

Answer:\Delta E=2.0715\times 10^{-21} J

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of the gas is increased from 100 to 200

Also we know that average kinetic energy of the molecules is

E=\frac{3}{2}\cdot \frac{R}{N_A}T

Where

R=Gas constant

N_A=Avogadro's number

T=Temperature in kelvin

\frac{R}{N_A}=1.381\times 10^{-23}

So kinetic energy increases by

\Delta E=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.381\times 10^{-23}\left ( 200-100\right )

\Delta E=2.0715\times 10^{-21} J

An object is falling from a height of 7.5 meters. At what height will it’s velocity be 7 meters/second?
Nady [450]
One of the equations of gravity is this:
{v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2gh
Where v = final velocity which is 7m/s
u = initial velocity which is 0 for objects falling from a height
g = acceleration due to gravity and it is approximately 10m/s^2. It's a constant so pretty much remember this number. It's positive since the work being done is caused by gravity (in other words, it's falling down). It can also be negative if the work being down is against gravity (in other words, it's going up)
h = height of object

Substitute for the values and you should have something like this
{7}^{2} = {0}^{2} + 2 \times 10 \times h
49 = 0 + 20h
h = \frac{49}{20}
h = 2.5m

What is an asteroid that is pulled off course by a planet’s gravity and orbits around that planet called?
tresset_1 [31]

The definition of the celestial bodies allows us to find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon

Asteroids are small rocky bodies that rotate around the Sun, when this body enters the atmosphere of a planet and reaches the surface it is called meteoroids.

A meteorite is a fragment of meteoroid, which has been divided in space or the atmosphere during the entrance to the planet, in general they are smaller

A meteor is the atmospheric phenomenon that occurs when the pattern meteorite or meteoroid enters, that is, it does not correspond to a celestial body.

An asteroid satellite or Moon is a celestial object that revolves captures and around another asteroid, this concept can be extended to an asteroid revolving captures and around a planet

A satellite is a celestial body that orbits a planet, its origin is varied and could be formed during the formation of the planet itself, or by capturing a nearby body during the initial formation of the solar system.

Let's examine the different answers

  • Moon.

True. A body captured by a planet is generally called the Moon.

  • Meteoriode.

False. A meteoroid is a body that enters the atmosphere of the plant and reaches its surface.

  • Meteorite

False. It is a fragment of meteoroid that manages to reach the surface of the planet.

  • Meteor

False.   Atmospheric phenomenon visible when passing a meteoroid or meteorite.

In conclusion, using the definition of celestial bodies we can find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon

Which of Newton's laws explains why satellites need very little fuel to stay in oribit?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Sattelites don't need any fuel to stay in orbit. The applicable law is...."objects in motion tend to stay in motion". Having reached orbital velocity, any such object is essentially "falling" around the earth. Since there is no (or at least very little) friction in the vacuum of space, the object does not slow.... It simply continues.


Sattelites in "low" earth orbit do encounter some friction from the very thin upper atmosphere, and they will eventually "decay".

Douglas has a segment with endpoints I(5, 2) and J(9, 10) that is divided by a point K such that IK and KJ form a 2:3 ratio. He
Rufina [12.5K]
For the answer to the question above, 
 the distance from i to j is 5 parts 
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j) 

The y distance from i to j is 
10 - 2 = 8 

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6 
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2 

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k 
2 + 3.2 = 5.2 

Answer y =5.2 

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer
