A student does 1,000 J of work when she moves to her dormitory. Her internal energy is decreased by 3,000 J. Determine the heat

during this process. Does she gain or lose her heat?

Answer:

-2000 J (heat lost)

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the 1st law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U = Q-W$

where

$\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy of a system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done by the system

In this situation, we have

$W=1000 W$ (work done by the student)

$\Delta U = -3000 J$ (decrease in internal energy)

So the heat is

$Q=\Delta U + W = -3000 J +1000 J = -2000 J$

And the negative sign means the student has lost heat.

A singly charged ion of 7Li (an isotope of lithium which lost only one electron) has a mass of 1.16 ×10^-26 kg. It is accelerate

MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of lithium, $m=1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg$

It is accelerated through a potential difference, V = 224 V

Uniform magnetic field, B = 0.724 T

Applying the conservation of energy as :

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qV$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qV}{m}}$

q is the charge on an electron

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 224\ V}{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg}}$

v = 78608.58 m/s

$v=7.86\times 10^4\ m/s$

To find the radius of the ion's path in the magnetic field. The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

$qvB=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}$

$r=\dfrac{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg\times 7.86\times 10^4\ m/s}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.724\ T}$

r = 0.0078 meters

So, the radius of the path of the ion is 0.0078 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

When using a micron gauge, if the pressure gauge falls frim 1,300 to 1,000 instantly, the vehicle needs to?

julsineya [31]

If the micron gauge pressure falls instantly, it means that the moisture of the air-conditioning is frozen, therefore you need to move the vehicle to a warmer place in order to unfreeze the moisture.

Simplified. The absorption spectra of ions have been used to identify the presence of the elements in the atmospheres of the sun

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The answer is " $3.83 \times 10^9 \ m$ "

Explanation:

Z=2, so the equation is $E= \frac{-4B}{n^2}$

Calculate the value for E when:

n=2 and n=9

The energy is the difference in transformation, name the energy delta E Deduct these two energies

In this transition, the wavelength of the photon emitted is:

$\Delta E=2.18 \times 10^{-18} ( \frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81})$

$\lambda = \frac{h c}{\Delta E}$

$h ( Planck's\ constant) = 6.62 \times 10^{(-34)} \ Js \\\\ speed \ of \ light = 3 \times 10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}\\\\= \frac{6.62 \times 10^{(-34)} \times 3 \times 10^ {8}}{2.18 \times 10^{-18}} (\frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81}) \\\\=3.83 \times 10^9 \ m\\\\$

The wavelength of visible light is about 5500 times longer than the wavelength of x-rays. If you represent the wavelenth of an x

Pie

Answer:

458.33 ft

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength of of an x- ray photon=1 in

Wavelength of of an x- ray photon== $\frac{1}{12}$ ft

1 in= $\frac{1}{12}$ feet

We have to find the length of line (in feet) drawn by you to represent the wavelength of visible light.

According to question

Wavelength of visible light= $5500\times \frac{1}{12}$ ft

Wavelength of visible light $=\frac{5500}{12}$ ft

Wavelength of visible light=458.33 ft

Hence, the 458.33 ft line must drawn by you to represent the wavelength of visible light.
