In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 1850 J of work is done on the gas

. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?

Answer:

The value of change in internal energy of the gas = + 1850 J

Explanation:

Work done on the gas (W) = - 1850 J

Negative sign is due to work done on the system.

From the first law we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)

Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas

Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas

W = work done on the gas

Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.

⇒ Q = 0

So from equation (1)

⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)

⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)

⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)

⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J

This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.

How fast can the 140 a current through a 0.200 h inductor be shut off if the induced emf cannot exceed 80.0 v?

Vesna [10]

Recall that to compute for the emf of a circuit given current and inductance, we must recall that

$emf = - M \frac{\Delta I }{\Delta t}$

where I is the current (A), M is the mutual inductance (h), and t is the time (ms). Since the current must not exceed 80.0 V, we have

$80.0 \geq 0.200(\frac{140}{t})$
$t \geq \frac{28.0}{80}$
$t \geq 0.35$

From this, we see that it must take at least 0.35 ms so it doesn't exceed 80 V.
Answer: 0.35 ms

If many household substances classify as acids or bases what is the ph scale

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: Some household items that contain acids include: yogurt, vinegar,lemon juice, citric acid, apples, jelly, pineapples, cranberry sauce, milk, and batteries and In chemistry, pH is a scale used to specify how acidic or basic a water-based solution is. Acidic solutions have a lower pH, while basic solutions have a higher pH. At room temperature, pure water is neither acidic nor basic and has a pH of 7.

During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The force is $F = 1041.7N$

Explanation:

The moment of Inertia I is mathematically evaluated as

$I = MR_A^2$

Substituting $1.9kg$ for M(Mass of the wheel) and $\frac{66cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.33m$ for $R_A$ (Radius of wheel)

$I = 1.9 * 0.33^2$

$= 0.207kgm^2$

The torque on the wheel due to net force is mathematically represented as

$\tau = FR_B - F_rR_A$

Substituting 135 N for $F_r$ (Force acting on sprocket), $\frac{8.7cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.0435m$ for $R_B$ (radius of the chain) and F is the force acting on the sprocket due to the chain which is unknown for now

$\tau = F (0.0435) - 135 (0.33)$

This same torque due to the net force is the also the torque that is required to rotate the wheel to have an angular acceleration of $\alpha = 3.70 rad/s^2$ and this torque can also be represented mathematically as

$\tau = \alpha I$

Now equating the two equation for torque

$F (0.0435) - 135 (0.33) = \alpha I$

Making F the subject

$F = \frac{\alpha I + (135*0.33) }{0.0435}$

Substituting values

$F = \frac{(3.70 * 0.207) + (135*0.33)}{0.0435}$

$= 1041.7N$
