How much heat energy must be added to the gas to expand the cylinder length to 16.0 cm ?
Lapatulllka [165]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A monatomic gas fills the left end of the cylinder in the following figure. At 300 K , the gas cylinder length is 14.0 cm and the spring is compressed by65.0 cm . How much heat energy must be added to the gas to expand the cylinder length to 16.0 cm ?

Answer:

the required heat energy is 16 J

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Lets consider the ideal gas equation;

PV = nRT

from the image, we calculate initial pressure;

Pi = ( 2000N/M × 0.06m) / 0.0008 m²

Pi = 15 × 10⁴ Pa

next we find Initial velocity

Vi = (0.0008 m²)(0.14) = 1.1 × 10⁻⁴ m²

now we find the number of moles

n = [(15 × 10⁴ Pa)(1.1 × 10⁻⁴ m²)] / 8.31 J/molK × 300K

N = 6.6 × 10⁻³ mol

next we calculate the final temperature;

Pf = ( 2000N/m × 0.08) / 0.0008 m²

Pf = 2 × 10⁵ Pa

Calculate the final Volume

Vf = (0.0008 m² × 0.16 m = 1.28 × 10⁻⁴ m³

we also determine the final temperature

T_{f} =  (2 × 10⁵ Pa × 1.28 × 10⁻⁴ m³) / 6.6 × 10⁻³ × 8.31 J/molK

T_{f}  = 466.8 K

so change in temperature ΔT

ΔT =  466.8 K - 300K = 166.8 K

we then calculate the change in thermal energy

ΔU = nCΔT

ΔU = ( 6.6 × 10⁻³ mol ) × 12.5 × 166.8K

ΔU = 13.761 J

C is the isochoric molar specific heat which is equal to 3R/2 for monoatomic

now we calculate the work done;

W = 1/2 × K( x_{i\\}² - x_{f\\}² )

W = 1/2 × ( 2000 N/m) ( 0.06² - 0.08² )

= - 2.8 J

and we then calculate the heat energy using the following expression;

Q = ΔU - W

we substitute

Q = 13.761 - (- 2.8 J)

Q = 13.761 + 2.8 J)

Q =  16 J

Therefore, the required heat energy is 16 J

Which colors of light represents the lowest visible frequency?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Red

Explanation:

Red is a colour which has the lowest frequency. Violet has the highest frequency. Frequency has a direct relationship with energy. This means the higher the frequency, the higher the energy. Red has the lowest energy of all the colors too.

The frequency and Energy has an inverse relationship with the wavelength.

However Red has the longest wavelength of about 620 - 780 nanometer.

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. Boat A goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. Boat
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

average velocity must be zero

Explanation:

As we know that the distance moved by the boat is given as

d = 48 km

now the time taken by the boat to move to and fro is given as

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{48 + 48}{48}

t = 2 hrs

Time taken by Boat B to cover the distance

t = \frac{48}{24} + \frac{48}{72}

t = 2.66 h

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

Since the displacement of Boat A is zero

so average velocity must be zero

Increasing the amount of current that flows through a wire ______ the strength of an electromagnet
Anestetic [448]

Electromagnet is in form of solenoid

and the magnetic field due to solenoid is given as

B = \mu_0 n i

here

i = current in the loop

so when we increase the current in electromagnet the magnetic field of the solenoid will increase

this will increase the strength of the electromagnet

so the answer would be

<em>INCREASE</em>
