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 of these are broken down during chemical, but not physical, changes?
Doss [256]

I think your answer is D

because you already said its not a B is a liquid and  not a solid so its harder to have a chemical change C is solutions and D is compound and I know for a fact that a compound is a solid and if C is also a solid then that could also be a possible answer choice.

A child whose weight is 235 N slides down a 4.90 m playground slide that makes an angle of 37.0° with the horizontal. The coeffi
Basile [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) First, let's calculate the value of the Friction force, which is given by the formula:

Ff = u*W

As the Friction force has an X component, it would be:

Ff = u*m*g*cosФ

Where m*g is the weight of the child.

Solving for Ff:

Ff = 0.051 * 235cos37 = 9.57 N

Now, to get the energy transferred to thermal energy (or heat) we need to get the Work done, so:

Wf = Ff * d

Wf = 9.57 * 4.9 = 46.9 J

b) We need to get the downslope component of the child weight, which is:

Wy = 235sin37 = 141.43 N

As you can imagine, the gravity also does work, so:

Wg = Wy * d

Wg = 141.43 * 4.9 = 693 J

Now, let's get the kinetic energy, which can be obtained by this expression:

ΔKe = Wg - Wf

ΔKe = 693 - 46.9 = 646.1 J

The formula for kinetic energy is:

Ke = 1/2 m*V^2

We have the innitial speed which is 0.355 m/s, and the mass can be obtained by m*g so:

Fw= m*g ----> m = Fw/g

m = 235 / 9.8 = 23.97 kg

so the innitial energy is:

Ke = 1/2 * 23.97 * (0.355)^2

Ke = 1.51 J

This could be Ke1, so to get Ke2:

ΔKe = Ke2 - Ke1

Ke2 = Δke + Ke1

Ke2 = 646.1 + 1.51 = 647,61 J

Finally, the speed at the bottom would be:

v = √2Ke/m

v = √2*647.61/23.97

v = 7.35 m/s

(c) An object of mass 100 kg is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of 15m/s to 20 m/s in 10 s.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Explanation:

momentum = mass x velocity

initial momentum = 100 x 15 = 1500kgm/s

after momentum = 100 x 20 = 2000kgm/s

a =(v-u)/t

a = (20-15)/10

a = 5/10

a = 0.5m/s²

f = ma

f = 100 x 0.5

f = 50N
