Answer:
(a) ΔU=747J
(b) γ=1.3
Explanation:
For (a) change in internal energy
According to first law of thermodynamics the change in internal energy is given as
ΔU=Q-W
Substitute the given values
ΔU=970J-223J
ΔU=747J
For(b) γ for the gas.
We can calculate γ by ratio of heat capacities of the gas
γ=Cp/Cv
Where Cp is the molar heat capacity at constant pressure
Cv is the molar heat capacity at constant volume
To calculate γ we first need to find Cp and Cv
So
For Cp
As we know
Q=nCpΔT
Cp=(Q/nΔT)
From relation of Cv and Cp we know that
Cp=Cv+R
Where R is gas constant equals to 8.314J/mol.K
So
So
γ=Cp/Cv
γ=[(37J/mol.K) / (28.687J/mol.K)]
γ=1.3
For this case we first think that the skateboard and the child are one body.
We have then:
1 = jug
2 = skateboard + boy
By conservation of the linear amount of movement:
M1V1i + M2V2i = M1V1f + M2V2f
Initial rest:
v1i = v2i = 0
0 = M1V1f + M2V2f
Substituting values
0 = (7.8) (3.2) + (M2) (- 0.65)
0 = 24.96 + M2 (-0.65)
-24.96 = (-0.65) M2
M2 = (-24.96) / (- 0.65) = 38.4 kg
Then, the child's mass is:
M2 = Mskateboard + Mb
Clearing:
Mb = M2-Mskateboard
Mb = 38.4 - 1.9
Mb = 36.5 Kg
answer:
the boy's mass is 36.5 Kg
To change from mass to weight is Fw = 30 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 294 N. To change from weight to mass divide by gravity (9.8 m/s^2).
The combined amount of kinetic and potential energy of its molecules
