Many people would not accept the heliocentric theory because people had come to accept the idea that the Earth was the center of the universe.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heliocentric theory proposed that sun is in the centre, and hence earth is revolving around it. Yes, many people did not accept the beliefs or theories, that the earth is not the centre of the universe, because they had a strong impression in their minds, that the earth is superior to all in the universe, humans being supreme. Those false beliefs made their minds stubborn to any new decisions or theories, regarding the positions of the earth and the sun.

One and one-half moles of an ideal monatomic gas expand adiabatically, performing 7900 J of work in the process. What is the cha
mart [117]

Answer:

The temperature change is -633.15K

Explanation:

If we considered the expansion as a reversible one (to be adiabatic is one of the requirements), the work done by expansion can be written as:

W=-n*P(v_2-v_1)=-P*(V_2-V_1) Where 2 and 1 subscripts mean the final and the initial state respectively. The equation negative sign says that for an expansion of the gas, the system is making work, so the energy is going out of the system.

Using the ideal gas equation, it is possible to change volume and pressure by temperatures:

PV_2=(nRT_2)\\PV_1=nRT_1

So,

W=-nR(T_2-T_1)

(T_2-T_1)=\frac{-W}{nR}=\frac{-7900J}{(1.5mol*8.314\frac{J}{molK})}=-633.5K

This result makes sense considering that the volume increases, so it is expected that the temperature decreases.
