Answer:

True

Explanation:

True

Diffusion refers to that process through which concentration is transmitted from one place to another concentration i.e from higher concentration to lower concentration. Due to this only, characteristics able to spread all over the space.

it can only happen in fluid(liquid and gas) because their particle can move in a random direction

If this energy were used to vaporize water at 100.0 ∘C, how much water (in liters) could be vaporized? The enthalpy of vaporizat
Zanzabum

Answer:

0.429 L of water

Explanation:

First to all, you are not putting the value of the energy given to vaporize water, so, to explain better this problem, I will assume a value of energy that I took in a similar exercise before, which is 970 kJ.

Now, assuming that the water density is 1 g/mL, this is the same as saying that 1 g of water = 1 mL of water

If this is true, then, we can assume that 1 kg of water = 1 L of water.

Knowing this, we have to use the expression to get energy which is:

Q = m * ΔH

Solving for m:

m = Q / ΔH

Now "m" is the mass, but in this case, the mass of water is the same as the volume, so it's not neccesary to do a unit conversion.

Before we begin with the calculation, we need to put the enthalpy of vaporization in the correct units, which would be in grams. To do that, we need the molar mass of water:

MM = 18 g/mol

The enthalpy in mass:

ΔH = 40.7 kJ/mol / 18 g/mol = 2.261 kJ/g

Finally, solving for m:

m = 970 / 2.261 = 429 g

Converting this into volume:

429 g = 429 mL

429 / 1000 = 0.429 L of water

To solve this problem we need to apply the corresponding sound intensity measured from the logarithmic scale. Since in the range of intensities that the human ear can detect without pain there are large differences in the number of figures used on a linear scale, it is usual to use a logarithmic scale. The unit most used in the logarithmic scale is the decibel yes described as

\beta_{dB} = 10log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

Where,

I = Acoustic intensity in linear scale

I_0 = Hearing threshold

The value in decibels is 17dB, then

17dB = 10log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

Using properties of logarithms we have,

\frac{17}{10} = log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0} = 1.7

\frac{I}{I_0} = 10^{1.7}

\frac{I}{I_0} = 50.12 W/m^2

Therefore the factor that the intensity of the sound was 50.12W/m^2

A book is launched up along the rough incline. Kinetic energy given to a book at initial point is 100 J. Book comes to stop at s
den301095 [7]

Answer:

(A) 60 J

Explanation:

At state 1

KE₁=100 J

At state 2

KE₂ = 0

U₂=80 J

Given that surface is rough so friction force will act in opposite to the direction of motion

Lets take work done by friction = Wfr

From work power energy

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy

Wfr + U₂=ΔKE

Wfr+80 = 100

Wfr= 20 J

Now when book slides from top position then

Wfr+ U = KEf - KEi

-20 + 80 = KEf-0

KEf= 60 J

(A) 60 J

A particle moves along the x axis. It is initially at the position 0.180 m, moving with velocity 0.060 m/s and acceleration -0.3
shusha [124]

Answer:

a

  x_2 = -2.3356

b

 v = -1.384 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The initial position of the particle is  x_1 = 0.180 \ m

  The initial  velocity of the particle is  u = 0.060  \  m/s

  The acceleration is   a = -0.380 \  m/s^2

   The time duration is  t = 3.80  \ s

Generally from kinematic equation

    v = u + at

=>  v = 0.060 + (-0.380 * 3.80)

=>  v = -1.384 \ m/s

Generally from kinematic equation

   v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here s is the distance covered by the particle, so

   (-1.384)^2 = (0.060)^2 + 2(-0.380)* s

=>  s = -2.5156 \ m

Generally the final position of the particle is  

    x_2 = x_1 + s

=>   x_2 = 0.180 + (-2.5156)

=>   x_2 = -2.3356
