A sample of an ideal gas initially occupies a volume of 6 L. The pressure of the sample is then doubled while it is cooled to on

e third its original absolute temperature. After these changes, what volume does the sample occupy?

Answer:

V₂= 1 L

Explanation:

Given that

Volume occupies V₁= 6 L

Initial pressure = P₁

Initial temperature = T₁

The final pressure =P₂ = 2 P₁

Final volume =V₂

Final temperature = T₁/3

As we know that equation for ideal gas

P V = m R T

P=pressure, V=volume, T=temperature

m=mass ,R=gas constant

Now from mass conservation

$m=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

$\dfrac{P_1\times 6}{RT_1}=3\times \dfrac{2P_1V_2}{RT_1}$

6 = 3 x 2 V₂

V₂= 1 L

So the final volume will be 1 L

A vehicle of mass 100kg has a kinetic energy of 5000 J at an instant. The velocity at that instant is

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

$\bf\pink{10\:m/s}$

Explanation:

<h2><u>Given</u> :-</h2>

$\sf\red{Mass \ of \ vehicle \ (m) = 100 \ kg}$
$\sf\orange{Kinetic \ energy \ (K.E.) = 5000 \ J}$

<h2><u>To Find</u> :-</h2>

$\sf\green{Velocity\: of\: the \:vehicle \:at \:the \:instant}$

<h2><u>Formula to be used</u> :-</h2>

$\sf\blue{K.E. = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^{2}}$

Where,

K.E. = Kinetic energy possessed by the body
M = Mass of the body
V = Velocity of the body

<h2><u>Solution</u> :-</h2>

$\to\:\:\sf\red{K.E. = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^{2}}$

$\to\:\:\sf\orange{5000 = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 100 \times v^{2}}$

$\to\:\:\sf\green{5000 = 50 \times v^{2}}$

$\to\:\:\sf\blue{\dfrac{5000}{50} = v^{2}}$

$\to\:\:\sf\purple{100 = v^{2}}$

$\to\:\:\sf\red{\sqrt{100} = v}$

$\to\:\:\sf\orange{ 10 = v}$

$\to\:\:\bf\pink{v = 10\:m/s}$

Velocity of the vehicle at the instant is $\bf\green{10\:m/s}$

Answer:

The speed will be "18km/s". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question, the values are:

Wavelength,

$\lambda = 656.46 \ nm$

$\Delta \lambda = 0.04$

$c=3\times 10^8$

As we know,

⇒ $\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{v}{c}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $\frac{656.46}{0.04} =\frac{v}{3\times 10^8}$

⇒ $v=\frac{656.46}{0.04} (3\times 10^8)$

⇒ $=16411.5\times 3\times 10^8$

⇒ $=18280 \ m/s$

or,

⇒ $=18 \ km/s$

A spring is hanging from the ceiling. When a 250 gram of mass is attached to the free end, the spring elongates by 5 cm. The spr

lord [1]

Answer:

k = 49 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

When the mass is attached to the end of the spring, it elongates 5 cm or 0.05 m. We need to find the spring constant. Let it is k.

The force due to mass is balanced by its weight as follows :

mg=kx

$k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{0.25\times 9.8}{0.05}\\\\k=49\ N/m$

So, the spring constant of the spring is 49 N/m.
