Answer:

$H=41.3kJmol^{-1}$

Explanation:

The equation relating the the enthalphy, pressure and temperature is expressed as

$ln(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} )=\frac{H}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}} ) \\$

Where P is the pressure, H is the enthalphy, and T is the temperature.

since the given values are

$T_{1}=293k, \\T_{2}=336.5k\\P_{1}=5.95kPA\\p_{2}=53.3kPA\\and R=8.314J.K^{-1}mol_{-1}$

if we insert values, we arrive at

$ln(\frac{53.3}{5.95} )=\frac{H}{8.314}(\frac{1}{293}-\frac{1}{336.5} )\\2.19=\frac{H}{8.314}(0.00044)\\H=(2.19*8.314)/0.00044\\H=41,268.8Jmol^{-1}\\H=41.3kJmol^{-1}$

If you fire a gun horizontally, and at the same time drop a bullet/slug from the same height, what will happen?

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

There you have it. The y-component of air resistance for the fired bullet still depends on the fired speed of the bullet (since it is proportional to v2). A fired bullet (with air resistance) does not hit the ground at the same time as a dropped bullet.

Explain how you can determine the direction of a magnetic field produced by a wire if you know the diection of the current throu

ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

Right hand thumb rule : Point the thumb of your right hand in the direction of the current flow, the direction of curvature of the fingers will give us the direction of the magnetic field produced by current carrying wire. This rule was given by Maxwell.

1) If the current is moving in upward direction , the direction of the magnetic field will be in anti clock wise direction.

2) If the current is moving in downward direction , the direction of the magnetic field will be in clock wise direction.

How is the lifetime of a star related to its mass?

Flauer [41]

Stars having less mass collapses early than those with more mass. This can be explained by Einstein's equation E=mc².
According to this equation, mass of stars is converted into light due to thermonuclear reactions occuring in the core of star which acts as engine of the stars. This thermonuclear reactions keeps star alive. Thermonuclear reactions occurs slowly in massive stars hence massive stars live more than light stars.

PLEASE HELP ME 45 POINTS

Answer:

a) We kindly invite you to see the explanation and the image attached below.

b) The acceleration of the masses is 4.203 meters per square second.

c) The tension force in the cord is 28.02 newtons.

d) The system will take approximately 0.845 seconds to cover a distance of 1.5 meters.

e) The final speed of the system is 3.551 meters per second.

Explanation:

a) At first we assume that pulley and cord are both ideal, that is, masses are negligible and include the free body diagrams of each mass and the pulley in the image attached below.

b) Both masses are connected to each other by the same cord, the direction of acceleration will be dominated by the mass of greater mass (mass A) and both masses have the same magnitude of acceleration. By the 2nd Newton's Law, we create the following equation of equilibrium:

Mass A

$\Sigma F = T - m_{A}\cdot g = -m_{A}\cdot a$ (1)

Mass B

$\Sigma F = T - m_{B}\cdot g = m_{B}\cdot a$ (2)

Where:

$T$ - Tension force in the cord, measured in newtons.

$m_{A}$ , $m_{B}$ - Masses of blocks A and B, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$a$ - Net acceleration of the each block, measured in meters per square second.

By subtracting (2) by (1), we get an expression for the acceleration of each mass:

$m_{B}\cdot a +m_{A}\cdot a = T-m_{B}\cdot g -T + m_{A}\cdot g$

$(m_{B}+m_{A})\cdot a = (m_{A}-m_{B})\cdot g$

$a = \frac{m_{A}-m_{B}}{m_{B}+m_{A}} \cdot g$

If we know that $m_{A} = 5\,kg$ , $m_{B} = 2\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then the acceleration of the masses is:

$a = \left(\frac{5\,kg-2\,kg}{5\,kg+2\,kg}\right) \cdot\left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$a = 4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

The acceleration of the masses is 4.203 meters per square second.

c) From (2) we get the following expression for the tension force in the cord:

$T = m_{B}\cdot (a+g)$

If we know that $m_{B} = 2\,kg$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $a = 4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then the tension force in the cord:

$T = (2\,kg)\cdot \left(4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}+9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$T = 28.02\,N$

The tension force in the cord is 28.02 newtons.

d) Given that system starts from rest and net acceleration is constant, we determine the time taken by the block to cover a distance of 1.5 meters through the following kinematic formula:

$\Delta y = \frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2}$ (3)

Where:

$a$ - Net acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$\Delta y$ - Covered distance, measured in meters.

If we know that $a = 4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $\Delta y = 1.5\,m$ , then the time taken by the system is:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot \Delta y}{a} }$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (1.5\,m)}{4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } }$

$t \approx 0.845\,s$

The system will take approximately 0.845 seconds to cover a distance of 1.5 meters.

e) The final speed of the system is calculated by the following formula:

$v = a\cdot t$ (4)

Where $v$ is the final speed of the system, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $a = 4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $t \approx 0.845\,s$ , then the final speed of the system is:

$v = \left(4.203\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.845\,s)$

$v = 3.551\,\frac{m}{s}$

The final speed of the system is 3.551 meters per second.
