Lisa [10]3 years ago
6 0

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.

4. Analyze: What can you say about the acceleration of dividers when the pressure increases
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

if  increase the pressure in a system the acceleration should increase

Explanation:

The definition of pressure is

         P = F / A

Where F is the force and A the area

       F = P A

Let's write Newton's second law

      F = ma

We substitute

     P A = m a

So we see that the pressure is directly proportional to the acceleration, if  increase the pressure in a system the acceleration should increase

Monochromatic light with a wavelength of 6.4 E -7 meter passes through two narrow slits, producing an interference pattern on a
seropon [69]

Answer:

The distance between the slits is given by  1.3 × 10^{-4} m

Given:

\lambda = 6.4 \times 10^{-7} m

D = 4 m

y = 2 \times 10^{-2} m

m = 1

To find:

distance between slits, d = ?

Formula used:

y = \frac{m \times \lambda \times D}{d}

y = distance of first bright band from central maxima

D = distance between screen and source

d = distance between slits

\lambda = wavelength

Solution:

distance of first bright band from central maxima is given by,

y = \frac{m \times \lambda \times D}{d}

y = distance of first bright band from central maxima

D = distance between screen and source

d = distance between slits

\lambda = wavelength

Thus,

d = \frac{m \times \lambda \times D}{y}

d = \frac{1 \times 6.4 \times 10^{-7} \times 4 }{2 \times 10^{-2} }

d = 1.28 × 10^{-4}

d = 1.3 × 10^{-4} m

The distance between the slits is given by  1.3 × 10^{-4} m

Name:
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

1.a) 1 kJ

1.b) 4 kJ

     ratio 1:4

1.c) 4 times as before

2.a)  3.33 m/s2

Explanation:

1.a) bicycle's velocity =Displacement/time

                                   =100/20 m/s

                                   =5 m/s

bicycler's KE =1/2 *mass*(velocity)^2

                      =1/2*80*5^2

                       =1000 J = 1 kJ

1.b) bicycle's new velocity =200/20 m/s

                                   =10 m/s

bicycler's new KE =1/2*80*10^2

                             =4000 J = 4 kJ

Ratio= KE 1 :KE new

        = 1 :4

1.c)  when bicycler's speed was doubled it increased the KE by 4 times (2^2). because In KE we consider the square of the speed , so the factor we increase the speed , the KE will get increased with the square value of it

ex : speed is triple the prior value , then the KE is as 3^2 times as before. that is 9 times

2.a) car acceleration = (20-0)/6 m/s2

                                  = 3.33 m/s2

A cubical block of iron 10 cm on each side is floating on mercury in a vessel. (i) What is the height of the block above the mer
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

i 5.3 cm ii. 72 cm

Explanation:

i

We know upthrust on iron = weight of mercury displaced

To balance, the weight of iron = weight of mercury displaced . So

ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g

ρ₁V₁ = ρ₂V₂ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₂ = density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³ and V₂ = volume of mercury displaced = ?

V₂ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₂ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/13.6 g/cm³ = 529.4 cm³

So, the height of iron above the mercury is h = V₂/area of base iron block

= 529.4 cm³/10² cm² = 5.294 cm ≅ 5.3 cm

ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g

ii

ρ₁V₁ = ρ₃V₃ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₃ = density of water = 1 g/cm³ and V₃ = volume of water displaced = ?

V₃ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₃ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/1 g/cm³ =  7200 cm³

So, the height of column of water is h = V₃/area of base iron block

= 7200 cm³/10² cm² = 72 cm
