The temperature of the liquid in a container decreases as the liquid evaporates. Use kinetic theory to explain why.

Physics
1 answer:
melisa1 [442]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Temperature decreases because the number of collision of the molecules decreases as they escape or evaporate. Molecules are in constant motion. Increase in temperature leads to increase in average kinetic energy of the molecules.

Chi walked 100 meters in 5 minutes. She took another 15 minutes to walk another 400 meters to reach her house. What is her avera
Law Incorporation [45]

Average speed is the ratio of total distance moved by Chi in total time interval

So here we will have

Total distance = 100 m + 400 m

d = 500 m = 0.5 km

Total time taken = 5 min + 15 min = 20 min

T = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{1}{3} hour

now by the formula of average speed we know that

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{T}

v_{avg} = \frac{0.5 km}{1/3 h}

v_{avg} = 1.5 km/h

so average speed will be 1.5 km/h

The level of mercury falls in a barometer<br>while taking it to a mountain.​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

This is due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places.

Explanation:

Given that atmospheric pressure decreases at the higher point or ground, this reduced atmospheric pressure, however, will be unable to contain the Mercury in the barometer tube.

Therefore, at the top of the mountain where the air pressure is low, the barometer reading ultimately goes down.

Hence, the level of mercury falls in a barometer while taking it to a mountain "due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places."

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field that is directed in the positive xx direction with magn
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The change in potential energy is  \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the uniform electric field  is  E =  950 \ N/C

      The  distance traveled by the electron is  x =  2.50 \ m

Generally the force on this electron is  mathematically represented as

     F =  qE

Where F is the force and  q is the charge on the electron which is  a constant value of  q =  1.60*10^{-19} \ C

    Thus  

      F  =  950  * 1.60 **10^{-19}

      F  = 1.52 *10^{-16} \ N

Generally the work energy theorem can be mathematically represented as

          W =  \Delta  KE

Where W is the workdone on the electron by the  Electric field and  \Delta  KE  is the change in kinetic energy

Also  workdone on the electron can also  be represented as

        W =  F* x  *cos(  \theta )

Where  \theta  =  0 ^o considering that the movement of the electron is along the x-axis  

        So

             \Delta  KE  =  F  * x  cos  (0)

substituting values

         \Delta  KE  =  1.52 *10^{-16}  * 2.50   cos  (0)

          \Delta  KE   =  3.8*10^{-16} J

Now From the law of energy conservation

       \Delta PE  =  -  \Delta  KE

Where \Delta  PE is the change  in  potential energy  

Thus  

        \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J
