Answer:

a) U = 652.545\,kJ, b) v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) According to the First Law of Thermodinamics, the system is not reporting any work, mass or heat interactions. Besides, let consider that such box is rigid and, therefore, heat contained inside is the consequence of internal energy.

Q = U

The internal energy for a monoatomic ideal gas is:

U = \frac{3}{2} \cdot n \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Let assume that cubical box contains just one kilomole of monoatomic gas. Then, the temperature is determined from the Equation of State for Ideal Gases:

T = \frac{P\cdot V}{n\cdot R_{u}}

T = \frac{(202.65\,kPa)\cdot(1.29\,m)^{3}}{(1\,kmole)\cdot(8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K} )}

T = 52.325\,K

The thermal energy contained by the gas is:

U = \frac{3}{2}\cdot (1\,kmole)\cdot (8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K})\cdot (52.325\,K)

U = 652.545\,kJ

b) The physical model for the cat is constructed from Work-Energy Theorem:

U = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{cat} \cdot v^{2}

The speed of the cat is obtained by isolating the respective variable and the replacement of every known variable by numerical values:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot U}{m_{cat}}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (652.545 \times 10^{3}\,J)}{3\,kg} }

v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}

Which nucleus completes the following equation?<br> A. 299 Np<br> B. 20Pa<br> C. 2 Pa<br> D. - Np
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Option D. ²³⁹₉₃Np

Explanation:

Let the unknown be ʸₓA.

Thus, the equation becomes:

²³⁹₉₂U —> ⁰₋₁e + ʸₓA

Next, we shall determine the x, y and A. This can be obtained as follow:

92 = –1 + x

Collect like terms

92 + 1 = x

93 = x

x = 93

239 = 0 + y

239 = y

y = 239

ʸₓA => ²³⁹₉₃A => ²³⁹₉₃Np

Thus, the complete equation is:

²³⁹₉₂U —> ⁰₋₁e + ²³⁹₉₃Np

Una ola oceánica viaja a aproximadamente 1,97 m / s. Esto es 4 millas por hora. La frecuencia de las ondas es de aproximadamente
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

λ = 28,14 m

Explanation:

To find the wavelength of the wave you use the following formula:

v=\lambda f  (1)

v: speed of the wave = 1,97 m/s

λ: wavelength

f: frequency of the wave = 0,07 Hz

You replace the values of v and f in the equation (1) and solve for λ:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{1,97m/s}{0,07Hz}=28,14m

hence, the wavelength of the wave is 28,14 m

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

T_C=300 k

Temperature of soup T_H=340 K

heat capacity of soup c_v=33 J/K

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any  instant

efficiency is given by

\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}

dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})

dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

integrating From T_H to T_C

\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT

W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}

W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]

Now heat lost by soup is given by

Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

=\frac{W}{Q}

=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}

=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}

=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}

=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}

=0.061
