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

Why does it rain more in West Ferris than in East Ferris? Explain your answer.
daser333 [38]

Answer:

This idea helps students explain why more rain forms over West Ferris than East Ferris. ... Therefore, when students explain that water vapor condenses higher in the atmosphere, they are actually explaining that water vapor condenses high in the troposphere, which is relatively low in the atmosphere.

(Brainliest) How are radio waves used in cell phone wireless communication technology?
poizon [28]

Radio waves are used in cell phone wireless communication by this: Radio waves are released from the cell phone and travel to satellites in the stratosphere. After they reach the satellite, they are redirected to the recipient of the call/text.

Hope this helps! Can I have brainliest please?

What three things are needed for a mechanical wave

Featured snippet from the web

Mechanical waves move energy through a medium by vibrating particles. Mechanical waves can't move energy through a vacuum because there is no matter inside of a vacuum. The three types of mechanical waves are transverse waves, surface waves, and longitudinal waves.

Write a hypothesis why the moon has very little liquid water.
Llana [10]
Because the Moon has a very small surface area compared to other spacial geo-bodies, it has cooled down much faster than Earth. Any water on the moon would freeze.

Residential building codes typically require the use of 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 0.205 cm) for wiring receptacles. Such ci
Alecsey [184]

Given Information:  

Current = I = 20 A

Diameter = d = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m

Length of wire = L = 1 m

Required Information:  

Energy produced = P = ?

Answer:  

P = 2.03 J/s

Explanation:  

We know that power required in a wire is

P = I²R

and R = ρL/A

Where ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire 1.68x10⁻⁸ Ω.m

L is the length of the wire and A is the area of the cross-section and is given by

A = πr²

A = π(d/2)²

A = π(0.00205/2)²

A = 3.3x10⁻⁶ m²

R = ρL/A

R = 1.68x10⁻⁸*(1)/3.3x10⁻⁶

R = 5.09x10⁻³ Ω

P = I²R

P = (20)²*5.09x10⁻³

P = 2.03 Watts or P = 2.03 J/s

Therefore, 2.03 J/s of energy is produced in 1.00 m of 12-gauge copper wire carrying a current of 20 A
