Question:
Consider a sample of helium gas in a container fitted with a piston as pictured below. The piston is frictionless, but has a mass of 10.0 kg. How many of the following processes will cause the piston to move away from the base and decrease the pressure of the gas? Assume ideal behavior.
I. Heating the helium. II.
II. toRemoving some of the helium from the container.
III. Turning the container on its side.
IV. Decreasing the pressure outside the container.
a) 0
b) 1
c) 2
d) 3
e) 4
Answer:
Only one process will cause the piston to move which is
i) Heating the helium
Explanation:
When helium is heated it becomes less dense or lighter. Heating the helium will cause an increase in volume which will make the piston to move away from the base. When the volume finishes increasing, the piston will stop moving which in turn will make the forces on both sides of the piston balanced, so the pressure inside will balance the weight of the piston and that of the atmosphere. From that we can see that there has been a pressure change as a result of heating.
Answer:
a) 23.2 e V
b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV
Explanation:
given,
energy at ground level = -13.6 e V
energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V
A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.
h ν₁ - 13.6 = K
K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy
= 26.6 e V
h c = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ × 3 × 10⁸ = 12400 e V A°
K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V
a) energy of free electron
K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V
b) energy of the original photon
h ν₁ - 13.6 = K
h ν₁ = 23.2 + 13.6
= 36.8 e V
energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV
Answer
Explanation:
Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer.
Answer:
1.
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. (Image credit: NASA)
The largest planet in the solar system, the gas giant Jupiter is approximately 318 times as massive as Earth. If the mass of all of the other planets in the solar system were combined into one "super planet," Jupiter would still be two and a half times as large.
2.Rotation of Jupiter

Jupiter has the fastest rotation of all the planets in the Solar System, completing one rotation on its axis every 9.9 hours.
3.Jupiter, the King of the Planets, is a gas giant, which means that it's made mostly of gases like hydrogen and helium, and that it doesn't have a solid surface in the way that rocky planets like Earth do. With a temperature of 130 K (-140 C, -230 F), it's so cold that it gives off most of its energy in the infrared. In fact, Jupiter gives off almost twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun. It's able to do this because it has its own internal heat source, powered by the slow gravitational collapse that started when the planet first formed. Astronomers estimate that Jupiter is currently shrinking by almost 2 cm per year
Answer:
This question is about matching each definition with its correct term. Please find the term matched with their appropriate definition below.
Explanation:
1. Empirical evidence: An empirical evidence is an observational evidence i.e an evidence gathered by observation or use of senses.
2. Dependent variable: Dependent variable is an experimental factor that changes in response to a change in the independent variable. In other words, it is dependent on the independent variable.
3. Applied research: Applied research is a type of research oriented at solving a present problem or need. It encompasses the production of products that can be sold for profit.
4. Hypothesis: A hypothesis in an experiment is a proposed explanation for a scientific problem that itself can be tested by experimentation. A hypothesis aims at providing a testable explanation to an observed problem.
5. Control: A control is a quantity in an experiment that remains unchanged or constant. It is kept the same by the experimenter for all groups in the experiment in order not to influence the outcome.
6. Basic research: Basic research is the research that expands knowledge in a particular area. It is the kind of research that aims at filling a knowledge void or satiating curiosity.
7. Independent variable: The independent variable is the experimental factor that is changed or manipulated deliberately by the scientist.
