What is the kinetic theory of matter? How does it relate to the motion of molecules?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy that an object has because of its motion. The Kinetic Molecular Theory explains the forces between molecules and the energy that they possess. This theory is based on three theories about matter. Matter is composed of small particles (atoms, molecules, and ions).

A projectile is launched into the air with the initial speed of vi = 40 m/s at a launch angle of 20 degrees above the horizontal
Sphinxa [80]

The range of the projectile is 188 m

Explanation:

The motion of the arrow in this problem is a projectile motion, so it follows a parabolic path which consists of two independent motions:  

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction  

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction  

The path of a projectile is the combination of these two motions: see figure in attachment.

In order to find the horizontal range of the projectile, we just need to calculate the horizontal distance travelled.

We have:

t = 5.0 s (time of fligth of the projectile)

and the horizontal velocity is constant, and it is given by

v_x = v_i cos \theta

where

v_i = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

\theta=20^{\circ} is the angle of projection

Substituting,

v_x = (40)(cos 20^{\circ})=37.6 m/s

And therefore, the range of the projectile is:

d=v_x t = (37.6)(5.0)=188 m

How much heat is released upon converting one mole of steam (18.0
Anika [276]

4.65 × 10⁴ Joules of heat is released upon converting one mole of steam to water.

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Specific Heat Capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise temperature of 1 kg body for 1°C.

\large {\boxed{Q = m \times c \times \Delta t} }

<em>Q = Energy ( Joule )</em>

<em>m = Mass ( kg ) </em>

<em>c = Specific Heat Capacity ( J / kg°C ) </em>

<em>Δt = Change In Temperature ( °C )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial temperature of steam = t = 100.0°C

specific heat capacity of water = c = 4.186 J/gK

mass of steam = m = 18.0 gram

final temperature of water = t' = 25.0°C

specific latent heat of vaporization of water = Lv = 2268 J/g

<u>Asked:</u>

heat released = Q = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

\boxed {\large {\texttt{steam 100}^oC \overset{[Q_1]}{\rightarrow} \texttt{water 100}^oC \overset{[Q_2]}{\rightarrow} \texttt{water 25}^oC}}

Q = Q_1 + Q_2

Q = mL_v + mc\Delta t

Q = 18.0(2268) + 18.0(4.186)(100-25)

Q = 40824 + 5651.1

Q = 46475.1 \texttt{ Joules}

Q \approx 4.65 \times 10^4 \texttt{ Joules}
