How can the continuous addition of heat in a closed system cause it to explode?

Physics

VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

The heat builds pressure

Explanation:

Consider an ideal gas in a closed system (like a gas in a container: in this case, the volume of the gas is fixed). The ideal gas equation states that:

pV=nRT

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the gas volume

n is the number of moles of the gas

R is the gas constant

T is the gas temperature

If heat is added to the gas, its temperature T increases. n and R are constant, and V is constant as well (the container does not change its volume), so this means that the pressure of the gas, p, increases as well. The more heat is added, the more the temperature increases, the more the pressure increase: at some point, the pressure against the internal walls of the container will become so strong that the container will explode.

The overall length of a piccolo is 32.0 cm. The resonating air column vibrates as in a pipe that is open at both ends. (a) Find
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

distance  between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

Explanation:

given data

length L = 32 cm = 0.32 m

to find out

frequency and distance between adjacent anti nodes

solution

we consider here speed of sound through air at room temperature 20 degree is  approximately  v = 343 m/s

so

lowest frequency will be = \frac{v}{2L}   ..............1

put here value in equation 1

lowest frequency will be = \frac{343}{2(0.32)}

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

and

we have given highest frequency f = 4000Hz

so

wavelength =  \frac{v}{f}   ..............2

put here value

wavelength =  \frac{343}{4000}  

wavelength = 0.08575 m

so distance =  \frac{wavelength}{2}   ..............3

distance =  \frac{0.08575}{2}  

distance = 0.0425 m

so distance  between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

Answer:

B

Explanation:

the graph shows the line going up (accelerating) and it isn't curving like d so it doesn't stop accelerating

On Earth, 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs. On the Moon, 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs. Use these relationships to answer the following question
romanna [79]

Answer:

(a) 490 N on earth

(b) 80 N on earth

(c) 45.4545 kg on earth

(d) 270.27 kg on moon

Explanation:

We have given 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs on earth

And 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs on moon

(a) We have given mass of the person m = 50 kg

As it is given that 1 kg = 9.8 N

So 50 kg = 50×9.8 =490 N

(b) Mass of the person on moon = 50 kg

As it is given that on moon 1 kg = 1.6 N

So 50 kg = 50×1.6 = 80 N

(c) We have given that weight of the person on the earth = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 2.2 lbs on earth

So 100 lbs = 45.4545 kg

(d) We have given weight of the person on moon = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 0.37 lbs

So 100 lbs \frac{100}{0.37}=270.27kg

How does increasing the distance between charged objects affect the electric force between them? the electric force increases be
konstantin123 [22]

the electric force decreases because the distance has an indirect relationship to the force

Explanation:

The electric force between two objects is given by

F=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

As we can see from the formula, the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: so, when the distance between the object increases, the magnitude of the force decreases.
