Nezavi [6.7K]

According to kinetic molecular theory temperature is a measure of kinetic energy.There is absolute minimum temperature which occurs when something completely stop moving whereby temperature cannot become lower than this point. The absolute zero which has been extrapolated to exist at about -273 celsius while in kelvin scale is set such that absolute zero is 0 k thus kelvin is better inorder to avoid negative number when calculating.

The speeds of 22 particles are as follows: two at 5.30 cm/s, four at 1.40 cm/s, six at 7.14 cm/s, eight at 1.52 cm/s, two at 7.6

Leona [35]

Answer:

Average velocity is 3.93 cm/s

Root mean square velocity is 4.79 cm/s

Velocity peak to peak is 6.28 cm/s

Explanation:

Speed of 2 particles = 5.3 cm/s

Speed of 4 particles = 1.4 cm/s

Speed of 6 particles = 7.14 cm/s

Speed of 8 particles = 1.52 cm/s

Speed of 2 particles = 7.68 cm/s

$v_{avg}=\frac{2\times 5.3+4\times 1.4+6\times 7.14+8\times 1.52+2\times 7.68}{22}\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=\frac{86.56}{22}\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=3.93\ cm/s$

Average velocity is 3.93 cm/s

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 5.3^2+4\times 1.4^2+6\times 7.14^2+8\times 1.52^2+2\times 7.68^2}{22}}\\\Rightarrow v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{507.34}{22}}\\\Rightarrow v_{rms}=4.79\ cm/s$

Root mean square velocity is 4.79 cm/s

$v_p=7.68-1.4=6.28\ cm/s$

Velocity peak to peak is 6.28 cm/s

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, an object will accelerate if you apply what kind of force? Question 1 options: Frict

Bumek [7]

An unbalanced force is required to accelerate an object according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

<h3>What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?</h3>

It states that the force applied to the object is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

$F = ma$

An object will accelerate when the net force applied on the object is more than zero or unbalanced.

The acceleration is the change in the direction or speed of the object. To achieve acceleration the force must be greater in a direction.

When force is greater in one the object move in that direction which is known as acceleration.

Therefore, an unbalanced force is required to accelerate an object according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

A spring with a spring constant of 2500 n/m. is stretched 4.00 cm. what is the work required to stretch the spring?

Yuri [45]

W = 1/2k*x^2.

k = spring constant = 2500 n/m.
x = distance = 4 cm = 0.04m (convert to same units).

W = 1/2(2500)(0.04)^2 = 2J.
