Answer:

150 joules of energy is expelled to the low temperature reservoir each minute.

Explanation:

Lets assign the terms first.

T_H ,T_L,Q_H,Q_L,W where ...

T_H = 750 K that is, the high temperature of the reservoir.

T_L  = 350 K, low temperature of the reservoir.

Q_H = 400 J,energy extract from the reservoir.

W = 250 J, work done.

Q_L = energy expelled.

And

Formula to be used:

⇒ Q_H=W+Q_L

Re-arranging.

⇒ Q_L=Q_H-W

Now plugging the values of Q_H and W.

⇒ Q_L=400-250

⇒ Q_L=150 Joules

So energy expelled to the low temperature reservoir is of 150 joules.

4. The atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% argon. Typical atmospheric pressure in Boulder, Colorado
photoshop1234 [79]

<u>ANS</u>

<u>Step</u> <u>1</u> :Explanation of required formula.

According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, the partial pressure of a component of a gaseous mixture depends on the mole ratio of said component and the total pressure of the gaseous mixture

i.e Pi=Xi × Ptotal,

Here we don't know exactly how many moles of the mixture we have,

but we know that 78.0% of all the molecules present in the mixture are nitrogen molecules, 21.0% are oxygen molecules, and 1% are molecules of Ar gas.

As we know, a mole is simply a very large collection of molecules. In order to have one mole of a substance, we need to have 6.022 × 1023 molecules of that substance.

This means that the actual number of moles is not important here, because the ratio that exists between the number of molecules is equivalent to the ratio that exists between the number of moles.

Hence,

<u>Step</u> <u>2</u> : Calculate of mole fraction of the mixture.

mole fraction of nitrogen = 78 /100 = 0.78

mole fraction of O2 =

21 /100 = 0.21

mole fraction of Argon =

1 /100 = 0.01.

<u>Step</u> <u>3</u> : Calculate the pressure contributed by each of the mixture.

The pressure contributed by N2 = mole fraction of N2 × Total pressure = 0.78 × 0.83 atm = 0.6474 atm

The pressure contributed by O2 = 0.21 × 0.83 atm = 0.1743 atm

The pressure contributed by N2 = 0.01 × 0.83 atm = 0.0083 atm.

A 1 kg mass is attached to a spring with spring constant 7 Nt/m. What is the frequency of the simple harmonic motion? What is th
Scorpion4ik [409]

1. 0.42 Hz

The frequency of a simple harmonic motion for a spring is given by:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

k = 7 N/m is the spring constant

m = 1 kg is the mass attached to the spring

Substituting these numbers into the formula, we find

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}}=0.42 Hz

2. 2.38 s

The period of the harmonic motion is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\frac{1}{f}

where f = 0.42 Hz is the frequency. Substituting into the formula, we find

T=\frac{1}{0.42 Hz}=2.38 s

3. 0.4 m

The amplitude in a simple harmonic motion corresponds to the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system. In this case, the mass is initially displaced by 0.4 m: this means that during its oscillation later, the displacement cannot be larger than this value (otherwise energy conservation would be violated). Therefore, this represents the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system, so it corresponds to the amplitude.

4. 0.19 m

We can solve this part of the problem by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact:

- When the mass is released from equilibrium position, the compression/stretching of the spring is zero: x=0, so the elastic potential energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy of the system is just equal to the kinetic energy of the mass:

E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m = 1 kg and v = 0.5 m/s is the initial velocity of the mass

- When the spring reaches the maximum compression/stretching (x=A=amplitude), the velocity of the system is zero, so the kinetic energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy is just elastic potential energy:

E=U=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

Since the total energy must be conserved, we have:

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v=\sqrt{\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}}(0.5 m/s)=0.19 m

5. Amplitude of the motion: 0.44 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with x_0=0.4 m being the initial displacement of the mass and v_0=0.5 m/s being the initial velocity

- E_f = \frac{1}{2}kA^2 is the mechanical energy of the system when x=A (maximum displacement)

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find A, the amplitude:

\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{x_0^2+\frac{m}{k}v_0^2}=\sqrt{(0.4 m)^2+\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}(0.5 m/s)^2}=0.44 m

6. Maximum velocity: 1.17 m/s

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with x_0=0.4 m being the initial displacement of the mass and v_0=0.5 m/s being the initial velocity

- E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 is the mechanical energy of the system when x=0, which is when the system has maximum velocity, v_{max}

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find v_{max}, the maximum velocity:

\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x_0^2+v_0^2}=\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}(0.4 m)^2+(0.5 m/s)^2}=1.17 m/s m

Find the momentum of a particl with a mass of one gram moving with half the speed of light.
joja [24]

Answer:

129900

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the particle, m = 1 g = 1*10^-3 kg

Speed of the particle, u = ½c

Speed of light, c = 3*10^8

To solve this, we will use the formula

p = ymu, where

y = √[1 - (u²/c²)]

Let's solve for y, first. We have

y = √[1 - (1.5*10^8²/3*10^8²)]

y = √(1 - ½²)

y = √(1 - ¼)

y = √0.75

y = 0.8660, using our newly gotten y, we use it to solve the final equation

p = ymu

p = 0.866 * 1*10^-3 * 1.5*10^8

p = 129900 kgm/s

thus, we have found that the momentum of the particle is 129900 kgm/s

An archer defending a castle is on an 15.5 m high wall. He shoots an arrow straight down at 22.8 m/s. How much time does it take
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

  about 602 milliseconds

Explanation:

The motion can be approximated by the equation ...

  y = -4.9t^2 -22.8t +15.5

where t is the time since the arrow was released, and y is the distance above the ground.

When y=0, the arrow has hit the ground.

Using the quadratic formula, we find ...

  t = (-(-22.8) ± √((-22.8)^2 -4(-4.9)(15.5)))/(2(-4.9))

  = (22.8 ± √823.64)/(-9.8)

The positive solution is ...

  t ≈ 0.60195193

It takes about 602 milliseconds for the arrow to reach the ground.
