Molecules in a liquid don't all have the same speed,why does a liquid cool down when it evaporates?

Physics

Afina-wow [57]3 years ago

You're right.  The molecules in a jar of liquid have a wide range
of different speeds.  The average of all of their kinetic energies
is what we sense as the liquid's temperature. 

Within the jar, there's conduction and convection going on
constantly.  Tiny warm samples conduct heat to the tiny cool
samples next to them, so that the temperature stays uniform
throughout the jar.

When some of the liquid evaporates, it's the fastest molecules that
escaped from the surface and never returned to the jar.  With them
went their little bit of kinetic energy, so the total kinetic energy of the
molecules that got left behind decreased slightly, and since it was
the most energetic ones that departed, the average KE of those that
remained also decreased.  Once this new average gets uniformly
distributed throughout the jar, it'll show up as a decrease in temperature.

A heavy box is in the back of a truck. the truck is accelerating to the right. apply your analysis to the box.a) draw a motion d
Andru [333]

Explanation :

It is given that, a heavy box is in the back of a truck and the truck is accelerating to the right.

The description is shown in<em> figure 1</em>. Here, the forces that act on both box and the truck are the normal force, the frictional force and their weight mg.

The free body diagram is shown in <em>figure 2</em>. This shows the total forces            ( F = ma )acting on the truck. As a result, the truck will move in a forward direction.

Hence, this is the required explanation.

If the distance between two objects is increased by a factor of 3 (tripled), how will this affect Fg?
scoray [572]

Answer:

2. F g decreases to 1/9

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the Force of gravity between two masses separated by a distance is expressed as;

F = GMm/d² ... 1

If the distance is tripled, the new force will be;

F1 = GMm/(3d)²

F1 = GMm/9d² ... 2

Divide equation 1 by 2

F/F1 = GMm/d²÷GMm/9d²

F/F1 = GMm/d²×9d²/GMm

F/F1 = 1 * 9

F = 9F1

F1 = 1/9 F

<em>This means that the new force decreases to 1/9</em>
