Answer:

The options are

A) isochoric.

B) isothermal.

C) adiabatic.

D) isobaric.

The answer is C. Adiabatic

Adiabatic process involves zero loss or gain of heat in a system. This is usually depicted as Q= 0.

An ideal gas being compressed in a well-insulated chamber using a well-insulated piston involves the use of adiabatic process. The insulated chamber and piston helps to prevent heat loss or gain of heat. This is because insulators are poor conductors of heat and electricity.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The time is $t = 2.595 \ s$

The speed is $v = 25.43 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the cliff is $h = 33 \ m$

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

$h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

before the jump the persons initial velocity is u = 0 m/s

$33 = 0 * t + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 * t^2$

=> $t = 2.595 \ s$

Generally from kinematic equation

$v= u + gt$

=> $v= 0 + 9.8 * 2.595$

=> $v = 25.43 \ m/s$

Compare the forces in a small nucleus to the forces in a large nucleus

pochemuha

The comparison of the forces in a small nucleus to the forces of a large one is the fact that they are capable of holding the protons and neutrons which made it no matter what their size may be. Therefore, as long as there is a nucleus, their forces can both hold together the two atoms tight.

Estimate (a) the maximum, and (b) the minimum thermal conductivity values (in W/m-K) for a cermet that contains 83 vol% carbide

velikii [3]

Answer:

k_max = 31.82 w/mk

k_min = 17.70 w/mk

Explanation:

a) the maximum thermal conductivity is given as

$k_{max} = k_m*v_m + k_p*v_p$

where k_m is thermal conductvitiy of metal

k_p is thermal conductvitiy of carbide

v_m = proportion of metal in the cement = 0.17

v_p = proportion of carbide in the cement = 0.83

= 66*0.17 + 28*0.83

k_max = 31.82 w/mk

b) the minimum thermal conductivity is given as

$k_{min} = \frac{k_{carbide}* k_{metal}}{k_{metal} v_{carbide} +k_{metal} v_{carbide}}$

= \frac{28+66}{28*0.17 +66*0.83}

k_min = 17.70 w/mk
