What does the kinetic theory say about the motion of atoms

Physics
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The kinetic theory of gases assumes that the molecules are very small relative to the distance between molecules. The molecules are in constant, random motion and frequently collide with each other and with the walls of any container.

Another assumption is that each particle is in constant motion:

In gases, the movement of the particles is assumed to be random and free.

In liquids, the movement is somewhat constrained by the volume of the liquid.

In solids, the motion of the particles is severely constrained to a small area, in order for the solid to maintain its shape.

A plucked guitar string produces a sound wave with a wavelength of 0.15 m and a velocity of 10.5 m/s, what is the frequency of t
Leno4ka [110]
We know,
V= f× wavelength
10.5= f×0.15
f=10.5/0.15

A baseball m=.34kg is spun vertically on a massless string of length l=.52m. the string can only support a tension of tmax=9.9n
larisa86 [58]
<span>4.5 m/s This is an exercise in centripetal force. The formula is F = mv^2/r where m = mass v = velocity r = radius Now to add a little extra twist to the fun, we're swinging in a vertical plane so gravity comes into effect. At the bottom of the swing, the force experienced is the F above plus the acceleration due to gravity, and at the top of the swing, the force experienced is the F above minus the acceleration due to gravity. I will assume you're capable of changing the velocity of the ball quickly so you don't break the string at the bottom of the loop. Let's determine the force we get from gravity. 0.34 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.332 kg m/s^2 = 3.332 N Since we're getting some help from gravity, the force that will break the string is 9.9 N + 3.332 N = 13.232 N Plug known values into formula. F = mv^2/r 13.232 kg m/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 / 0.52 m 6.88064 kg m^2/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 20.23717647 m^2/s^2 = V^2 4.498574938 m/s = V Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 4.5 m/s The actual obtainable velocity is likely to be much lower. You may handle 13.232 N at the top of the swing where gravity is helping to keep you from breaking the string, but at the bottom of the swing, you can only handle 6.568 N where gravity is working against you, making the string easier to break.</span>
