Explanation:

Torque = Force * Perpendicular distance of the force = 10N * 0.8m = 8Nm.

In diagram A, both torques are acting in a clockwise direction. Hence the net torque is 2N * 1m + 4N * 1m = 6Nm, clockwise.

In diagram B, the torques are acting in opposite directions. For the clockwise one, its torque is 5N * 4m = 20Nm. For the anticlockwise one, its torque is 2N * 10m = 20Nm. Since they are in opposite directions and are equal, they cancel out each other.

Hence net force = 0N and net torque = 0Nm.

If you want to double the kinetic energy of a gas molecule, by what factor must you increase its momentum?A) 16B) 2^(1/2)

worty [1.4K]

Answer: $\sqrt{2}$

The linear momentum $p$ is given by the following equation:

$p=m.v$ (1)

Where $m$ is the mass and $v$ the velocity.

On the other hand, the kinetic energy $K$ is given by:

$K=\frac{p^{2}}{2m}$ (2)

Which is the same as:

$K=\frac{1}{2}m.v^{2}$

Now, if we double the kinetic energy, equation (2) changes to:

$2K=2\frac{p^{2}}{2m}$

$2K=\frac{p^{2}}{m}$ (3)

So, if we want to obtain the kinetic energy as shown in (3), the only option that works is increasing momentum by a factor of $\sqrt{2}$ or $2^{1/2}$ :

Applying this in (2):

$K=\frac{(\sqrt{2}p)^{2}}{2m}$

$K=\frac{(2p)^{2}}{2m}$

$K=\frac{p^{2}}{m}$ >>>As we can see, this equation is the same as equation (3)

Therefore, the correct answer is B

What is the effect on the gas’ pressure when compressing a gas to 1/3 of its volume? Explain

denis23 [38]

Explanation:

It's pressure become three times larger because according to Boyles Law the pressure of fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to it's volume provided that temp remains constant. That means a reduction in volume, will result in an increase in pressure and vice versa.
