Is "A firecracker that has not been lit kinetic, or potential energy?

1 answer:

7 0

A firecracker before been lit has potential energy in it. It is chemical potential energy which is due to the explosives in it.When it is lit, it gets converted into heat,light and kinetic energy.

Consider an insulated tank with a volume V = 2 L is separated into two equal-volume parts by a thin wall. On the left is an idea

steposvetlana [31]

Answer

given,

V = 2 L

the left is an ideal gas at P = 100 k Pa and T = 500 K

mass is constant

$m_1 = m_2$

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

Pressure is same because it's not changing due to process

$\dfrac{V}{500} = \dfrac{2 V}{T_2}$

$T_2 = 1000\ K$

$\Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + (\Delta S)_{surr}$

$\Delta S_{univ} =m(C_v ln (\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}))+ R ln (\dfrac{V_2}{V_1})$

$m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}$

$m = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}}{287\times 500}$

m = 1.39 x 10⁻³ Kg

$\Delta S_{univ} =1.39\times 10^{-3}(0.718 ln\ 2+ 0.287 ln (2)$

$\Delta S_{univ} =0.968\times 10^{-3}\ kJ/K$
