Answer:

Explanation: In DC circuit, the current will flow for a short time, which is required to charge the capacitor. Once you switch it on, it spikes and the gradually decreases to almost zero (0) as the capacitor becomes fully charged.

In an AC circuit, the circuit acts as if the current is flowing throw the plates whereas is not actually flowing. The circuit acts like the AC is flowing through the capacitor.

An ideal gas initially at 4.00atm and 350 K is permitted
Nuetrik [128]

Explanation:

It is given that initially pressure of ideal gas is 4.00 atm and its temperature is 350 K. Let us assume that the final pressure is P_{2} and final temperature is T_{2}.

(a)   We know that for a monoatomic gas, value of \gamma is \frac{5}{3}[/tex].

And, in case of adiabatic process,

                PV^{\gamma} = constant              

also,         PV = nRT

So, here    T_{1} = 350 K,    V_{1} = V,  and   V_{2} = 1.5 V

Hence,      \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = (\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1}

         \frac{T_{2}}{350 K} = (\frac{V}{1.5V})^{\frac{5}{3} -1}

          T_{2} = 267 K

Also,   P_{1} = 4.0 atm,   V_{1} = V,  and   V_{2} = 1.5 V

        \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = (\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma}

        \frac{P_{2}}{4.0 atm} = (\frac{V}{1.5V})^{\frac{5}{3}}

            P_{2} = 2.04 atm

Hence, for monoatomic gas final pressure is 2.04 atm and final temperature is 267 K.

(b) For diatomic gas, value of \gamma is \frac{7}{5}[/tex].

As,        PV^{\gamma} = constant              

also,         PV = nRT

T_{1} = 350 K,    V_{1} = V,  and   V_{2} = 1.5 V

              \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = (\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1}

         \frac{T_{2}}{350 K} = (\frac{V}{1.5V})^{\frac{7}{5} -1}

          T_{2} = 289 K

And,   P_{1} = 4.0 atm,   V_{1} = V,  and   V_{2} = 1.5 V

                \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = (\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma}

        \frac{P_{2}}{4.0 atm} = (\frac{V}{1.5V})^{\frac{7}{5}}

            P_{2} = 2.27 atm

Hence, for diatomic gas final pressure is 2.27 atm and final temperature is 289 K.

How much energy (in joules) is required to evaporate 0.0005 kg of liquid ammonia to vapor at the same temperature?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

685.6 J

Explanation:

The latent heat of vaporization of ammonia is

L = 1371.2 kJ/kg

mass of ammonia, m = 0.0005 Kg

Heat = mass x latent heat of vaporization

H = 0.0005 x 1371.2

H = 0.686 kJ

H = 685.6 J

Thus, the amount of heat required to vaporize the ammonia is 685.6 J.

A kid at the junior high cafeteria wants to propel an empty milk carton along a lunch table by hitting it with a 3.0g spit ball.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

4.3 m/s

Explanation:

Using conservation of momentum, assume that the collision is elastic and that the 3.0 g ball stuck with the carton

3.0 g = 3 / 1000 = 0.003 kg = m₁

40 g = 40 / 1000 = 0.04 kg  = m₂, u₂  = 0 since the body is stationary and v = 0.3m/s

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v ( m₁ + m₂)

0.003 u₁  = 0.30 ( 0.003 + 0.04) = 0.0129

u₁ = 0.0129 / 0.003 = 4.3 m/s
