Answer:

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law  for constant temperature of gas Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of gas.

PV=nRT

PV=constant

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

if Pressure is tripled then

P\times V_1=3P\times V_2

V_2=\frac{V_1}{3}

Volume becomes one-third of original volume

A force of 3 newtons moves a 10 kilogram mass horizontally a distance of 3 meters. The mass does not slow down or speed up as it
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

9 joules of heat energy was produced

Explanation: there is no acceleration therefore its not a kinetic energy

Energy= force × distance

= 3×3

=9

Carbon dioxide in a piston-‐‐cylinder is expanded in a polytropic manner. The initialtemperature and pressure are 400 K and 550
Arisa [49]

Answer:

 q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg

Explanation:

Given:

Initial State:

P_i = 550 KPa

T_i = 400 K

Final State:

T_f = 350 K

Constants:

R = 0.189 KJ/kgK

k = 1.289 = c_p / c_v

n = 1.2   (poly-tropic index)

Find:

Determine the heat transfer per kg in the process.

Solution:

-The heat transfer per kg of poly-tropic process is given by the expression:

                            q_poly = w_poly*(k - n)/(k-1)

- Evaluate w_poly:

                            w_poly = R*(T_f - T_i)/(1-n)

                            w_poly = 0.189*(350 - 400)/(1-1.2)

                            w_poly = 47.25 KJ/kg

-Hence,

                           q_poly = 47.25*(1.289 - 1.2)/(1.289-1)

                           q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg

How much heat is absorbed by a 28g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 7oC to 29oC?
prohojiy [21]
From the information given above, 
Mass [M] = 28 g
Change in temperature = 29 - 7 = 22 
Specific heat of iron = 0.449 [This value is constant]
The formula for calculating heat absorbed, Q is
Q = Mass * Specific heat of Iron * change in temperature
Q = 28 * 0.449 * 22 = 276.58 J<span />

In order for an object to have kinetic energy it must have a mass and a ?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

  • The mechanical energy of the body is defined as the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy.

                                   E = P.E + K.E

  • The potential energy of a body is due to the height from the surface of the earth.

                                  P.E = mgh

  • The kinetic energy of the is possessed by the body due to the virtue of its motion,

                                  K.E = ½ mv²

  • If there is no velocity associated with the body, there is no K.E in the body.

You want to lean your dad's ladder on a smooth wall. If the mass of ladder is 4.42 kg and coefficient
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

angle minimum   θ = 41.3º

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law in the condition of static equilibrium

    N - W = 0

    N = W

The rotational equilibrium condition, where we place the axis of rotation on the wall

We assume that counterclockwise rotations are positive

     fr (l sin θ) - N (l cos θ) + W (l/2 cos θ) = 0

     

the friction force formula is

     fr = μ N

     fr = μ W

we substitute

      μ m g l sin θ - m g l cos θ + mg l /2   cos θ = 0

      μ sin θ - cos θ + ½ cos θ= 0

         

       μ sin θ - ½ cos θ = 0

       sin θ / cos θ = 1/2 μ

       tan θ = 1/2 μ

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / 2μ)

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 (2 0.57))

      θ = 41.3º
