In an adiabatic process, the following relationship holds:
TV^{\gamma -1} = cost.
where T is the gas temperature, V is the volume and \gamma is the adiabatic index, which is equal to \gamma = \frac{5}{3} for a monoatomic gas.

We can re-write the equation as
T_1 V_1^{\gamma -1} = T_2 V_2^{\gamma -1}
where the labels 1,2 refer to the initial and final conditions of the gas.
Let's rewrite it for T_2, the final temperature:
T_2 = T_1 ( \frac{V_1}{V_2} )^{\gamma-1}

We can now substitute the initial temperature, T1=300 K, and V_2 = 2V_1, because the final volume is twice the initial one. So we find the value of the final temperature:
T_2 = 300 K( \frac{1}{2})^{ \frac{2}{3} } =189 K

1).  From the frame of reference of a passenger on the airplane looking out of his window, the tree appears to be moving, at roughly 300 miles per hour toward the left of the picture.

2).  The SI unit best suited to measuring the height of a building is the meter.

3).  'Displacement' is the straight-line distance and direction from the start-point to the end-point, regardless of the path that was followed to get there.  

The ball started out in the child's hand, and it ended up 2 meters away from her in the direction of the wall.  So the displacement of the ball from the beginning to the end of the story is:  2 meters toward the wall.

Calcular la rapidez promedio
Vlada [557]

Answer:

  v_average = 15 m / s

Explanation:

The average speed can be found in two ways,

* taking the distance traveled and divide it by the time spent

* taking the velocities in each time interval and then finding the weighted average by the time fraction

              v_average = 1 / t_total ∑  v_{i}  t_{i}vi ti

Let's apply this last equation

               

Total time is

               t = t₁ + t₂

               t = 10 + 10 = 20   min

              v_average = 10/20 10 + 10/20 20

              v_average = 10/2 + 20/2

              v_average = 15 m / s
