Calculate the temperature of the air mass when it has risen to a level at which atmospheric pressure is only 8.00×104 Pa . Assum

e that air is an ideal gas, with γ=1.40. (This rate of cooling for dry, rising air, corresponding to roughly 1 ∘C per 100 m of altitude, is called the dry adiabatic lapse rate.)

Answer:

T_{2}=278.80 K

Explanation:

Let's use the equation that relate the temperatures and volumes of an adiabatic process in a ideal gas.

(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}.

Now, let's use the ideal gas equation to the initial and the final state:

\frac{p_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{p_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Let's recall that the term nR is a constant. That is why we can match these equations.  

We can find a relation between the volumes of the initial and the final state.

\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}=\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}}

Combining this equation with the first equation we have:

(\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

(\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}^{\gamma}}{T_{1}^{\gamma}}

Now, we just need to solve this equation for T₂.

T_{1}\cdot (\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma}} = T_{2}

Let's assume the initial temperature and pressure as 25 °C = 298 K and 1 atm = 1.01 * 10⁵ Pa, in a normal conditions.

Here,

p_{2}=8.00\cdot 10^{4} Pa \\p_{1}=1.01\cdot 10^{5} Pa\\ T_{1}=298 K\\ \gamma=1.40

Finally, T2 will be:

T_{2}=278.80 K

The four terrestrial planets are so called because they ?
velikii [3]
Well, you need no look further than the word "terrestrial" If you notice the beginning of the word you notice that it consists mostly of the word "terra" Terra by definition is just land. Due to the solid land of these 4 planets, they're called terrestrial planets, the other 4 aren't made of land but of gas which is why they aren't classified as terrestrial planets.

The world speed record on water was set on October
Luda [366]

Answer: Remember speed is distance divided by time, so if he travels 1000 m in 7.045 s, his speed is

(1000 m)/(7.045 s) = 141.9 m/s.

Note there are 1609 metres in a mile, or 1 mi = 1609 m, so m = 1/1609 mi, or

141.9/1609 mi/s = 0.08822 mi/s. Now, note that 1 h = 3600 s, so the speed is

0.08822*3600 mi/h = 317.6 mi/h.
