Answer:

Explanation:

Temperature of air = 18°C = 273 + 18 = 291 K .

volume = 500 cc = 0 .5 litre .

pressure = one atmosphere ( atm) .

From gas equation , we can calculate this volume at NTP  as follows.

volume = .5 x ( 273 / 291  ) litre

= 0.469 litre .

In any gas at NTP , 22.4 litre contains 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

.469 litre will contain  6.02 x 10²³ x .469 / 22.4 molecules

= 126 x 10²⁰ molecules .

b )

one mole = 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

6.02 x 10²³ molecules  has weight of 28.96 grams

126 x 10²⁰ molecules has weight of 28.96 x 126 x 10²⁰ / 6.02 x 10²³ grams

= .606 gram .

c )

volume of all the air in the atmosphere = volume of sphere

=  4 / 3 x π  x R³

= ( 4 / 3) x 3.14 x (999.5 x 10³ )³ m³

= 4.18 x 10¹⁸ m³

density of air = 1.225 kg / m³

mass of air = 1.225 x 4.18 x 10¹⁸ kg

= 5.12 x 10¹⁸ kg

d )

volume of air inhaled by 7 billion people

= . 5 x 7 x 10⁹ litre

= 3.5 x 10⁶ m³ .

Total volume of air in atmosphere = 4.18 x 10¹⁸ m³

required percentage

= 3.5 x 10⁶ x 100 /  4.18 x 10¹⁸

= .8373 x 10⁻¹⁰ % .

A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begin
lyudmila [28]
Part a) The work done by the gas on the bullet is the integral of the force in dx, where x is the distance covered by the bullet inside the barrel with respect to the origin:
W= \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {F} \, dx =  \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {(16000+10000x-26000x^2)} \, dx =
=16000x+10000  \frac{x^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{x^3}{3}
By substituting the length of the barrel, L=0.540 m, we find the total work done by the gas on the bullet:
W=16000(0.540m)+10000  \frac{(0.540m)^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{(0.540m)^3}{3}  =
=8733 J=8.73 kJ

part b) The resolution of the problem is the same, we just have to use the new length of the barrel (L=0.95 m) inside the final formula, and we find the new value of the work:
W=16000(0.95m)+10000  \frac{(0.95m)^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{(0.95m)^3}{3}  =
=12280 J=12.28 kJ

If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, the ball will be?
disa [49]

The ball may attracted to the magnet.

<h3>How can we understand that the hanging ball will be attracted to the magnet or not?</h3>
  • From the question, we understand that the ball is attracted by the north pole of the bar magnet, then the bar magnet flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball.
  • As we know, in this type of experiments of bar magnet most of the times the ball is made out of steel.
  • Steel is a magnetic material.
  • Magnetic materials gets attracted  to the magnet at both the North and South pole.
  • This can be compared to how neutral objects also gets attracted to the positively and negatively charged rods through the Polarization force.

So, If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, The ball will be attracted to the magnet.

The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 × 10-6 K-1 . What is the change in length of a 25-m steel bridge span when it
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.012-m

Explanation:

∆L = α × Lo × (T-To)

α is the coefficient of linear expansion = 12 × 10-6 K-1

Lo = Initial length = 25-m

∆L = Change in length

(T-To) = 40 K

∆L = 12 × 10-6 × 25 × 40

∆L = 0.012-m
