A gas is inside a cylinder fitted with a piston. The gas and its surroundings are both at 20 ∘C and the gas is compressed as the

piston moves and decreases the cylinder volume. The compression takes place slowly enough to allow the gas temperature to stay at 20 ∘C and the work done on the gas by the compression is 1.9 × 103 J. What is the change in entropy of the gas

Answer:

-  6.48 J K⁻¹

Explanation:

Temperature of gas = 20°C

= 273 +20 = 293 K.

As temperature is fixed , there will be no change in gas internal energy

Δ E = 0

From the relation

Δ Q =  Δ E+ Δ W

Work done on the gas is 1.9 x 10³

Δ W = - 1.9 x 10³ J

Δ Q = - 1.9 x 10³ J

Δ S =  Δ Q / T

=\frac{- 1.9 \times 10^3 }{293}

= -  6.48 J K⁻¹

Two charged particles are projected into a region where a magnetic field is directed perpendicular to their velocities. If the c
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

*If the particles are deflected in opposite directions, it implies that their charges must be opposite

*the force is perpendicular to the speed, therefore it describes a circular movement, one in the clockwise direction and the other in the counterclockwise direction.

Explanation:

When a charged particle enters a magnetic field, it is subjected to a force given by

        F = q v x B

where bold letters indicate vectors

   

this expression can be written in the form of a module

        F = qv B sin θ

and the direction of the force is given by the right-hand rule.

In our case the magnetic field is perpendicular to the speed, therefore the angle is 90º and the sin 90 = 1

If the particles are deflected in opposite directions, it implies that their charges must be opposite, one positive and the other negative.

Furthermore, the force is perpendicular to the speed, therefore it describes a circular movement, one in the clockwise direction and the other in the counterclockwise direction.

A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. If g-9.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

0.31

Explanation:

horizontal force, F = 750 N

mass of crate, m = 250 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

The friction force becomes applied force = 750 N

According to the laws of friction,

Friction force = μ x Normal reaction of the surface

here, μ be the coefficient of friction

750 = μ x m g

750 = μ x 250 x 9.8

μ = 0.31

Thus, the coefficient of static friction is 0.31.

Which of the following has potential but not kinetic energy?
gavmur [86]

The answer would be option D "a ball sitting on a shelf." Potential energy is the amount of energy a object has while it's at rest.. (or not moving) Kinetic energy is how much energy a object is while it's moving. So in this case it's option D because a ball sitting on a shelf isn't moving therefore it has potential energy. It's not option A because thats a example of kinetic energy since how the roller coaster is moving. It's not option B because it's kinetic energy because the bike is moving. It's also not option C because it's kinetic energy because the bird is moving.


Hope this helps!
