A gas is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a light frictionless piston and maintained at atmospheric pressure. When 3300 kcal o

f heat is added to the gas, the volume is observed to increase slowly from 13.7m^3 19.7m^3.
a) Calculate the work done by the gas.
b) Calculate the change in internal energy of the gas.

Answer

given,

heat added to the gas,Q = 3300 kcal

initial volume, V₁ = 13.7 m³

final volume, V₂ = 19.7 m³

atmospheric pressure, P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

a) Work done by the gas

    W = P Δ V

    W = 1.013 x 10⁵ x (19.7 - 13.7)

    W = 6.029 x 10⁵ J

b) internal energy of the gas = ?

  now,

 change in internal energy

  Δ U = Q - W

    Q = 3300 x 10³ cal

    Q = 3300 x 10³ x 4.186 J

    Q = 1.38 x 10⁷ J

now,

  Δ U = 1.38 x 10⁷  - 6.029 x 10⁵

  Δ U = 1.32 x 10⁷ J

A 30-kg child sits at the top of a 3-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling 4 m/s. How much PE does he start wi
Jobisdone [24]
At the top:

         Potential Energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

                                       = (30 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3 meters)

                                       =      882 joules

At the bottom:

           Kinetic Energy  =  (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                       = (1/2) x (30 kg) x (3 m/s)²

                                       =        (15 kg)  x  (9 m²/s²)

                                       =              135 joules .

He had  882 joules of potential energy at the top,
but only  135 joules of kinetic energy at the bottom.

Friction stole  (882 - 135) = 747 joules of his energy while he slid down.
The seat of his jeans must be pretty warm.

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

g = 1.64m/s²

Explanation:

1.5m in 0.078s

V = 15 / 0.078

= 19.23m/s

Tension = mg

μ = 3.10 × 10⁻⁴

T = V²μ

mg =  V²μ

g =  V²μ / m

g = ((19.23)²(3.10 × 10⁻⁴)) / (0.070)

g = 1.64m/s²

In science, a broad idea that has been repeatedly verified so as to give scientists great confidence that it represents reality
Colt1911 [192]

In science, a broad idea that has been repeatedly verified so as to give scientists great confidence that it represents reality is called "a theory".

<u>Explanation:</u>

In science, the interpretation of a feature of the organic world that can be tested in repeat manner and analysed by applying agreed tests validation methods, calculation and observation in according to the scientific method, such process is called as a theory in science.

The difference lie between a theory and a hypothesis. Because hypothesis is an "educated guess". Overall it is either a proposed interpretation of an observed phenomenon, or a logical inference of a possible causal association between several phenomena.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 2.5 m/s and 6.25 m

Explanation:

u = 0

a = 0.5 m/s²

t = 5 s

v = u + at

=  0 + 0.5 × 5

= <u>2.5 m/s</u>

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 1/2 × 2.5 × 5

=<u> 6.25 m</u>
