Matter behaving like a wave rather than like a particle is best illustrated by which phenomenon?

1 answer:

8 0

The photoelectric effect is about electrons being ejected from metals when light is shined on metals. The electrons do not behave like waves in the photoelectric effect. Black body radiation is all about the radiation emitted by warm bodies and not about those bodies behaving like waves. The emission spectra of atoms is all about what light is given off by atoms when electrons in those atoms jump down to lower energy levels from higher levels. That also has nothing to do with matter behaving as a wave. Interference is classically defined as the generation of a new wave with an amplitude modulated according to the waves that interfere to form that new wave. Note its emphasis on the wave part.

A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

We start with 5.00 moles of an ideal monatomic gas with an initial temperature of 128 ∘C. The gas expands and, in the process, a

o-na [289]

Answer:

The final temperature of the gas is 114.53°C.

Explanation:

Firstly, we calculate the change in internal energy, ΔU from the first law of thermodynamics:

ΔU=Q - W

ΔU = 1180 J - 2020 J = -840 J

Secondly, from the ideal gas law, we calculate the final temperature of the gas, using the change in internal energy:

$ΔU=\frac{3}{2} nRΔT$

$ΔU=\frac{3}{2} nR(T_{2} -T_{1} )$

Then we make the final temperature, T₂, subject of the formula:

$T_{2} =\frac{2ΔU}{3nR} +T_{1}$

$T_{2} =\frac{2(-840J)}{(3)(5)(8.314J/mol.K)} +128 deg.C$

$T_{2} =114.53 deg.C$

Therefore the final temperature of the gas, T₂, is 114.53°C.

An auditorium measures 43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m. The density of air is 1.20 kg/m3. What is the volume of the room in cubic feet? (D

frez [133]

The question here would be what is the volume of the room. The density of air that is given has no use. We simply multiply the dimensions given of the room to determine the volume.

43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m = 11610m^3 ( 3.28 ft / 1 m)^3 = 4.09 x 10^5 ft^3
