Define temperature using molecular theory

Physics

Ipatiy [6.2K]3 years ago

Clearly, temperature has to do with the kinetic energy of the molecules, and if the molecules act like independent point masses, then we could define temperature in terms of the average translational kinetic energy of the molecules, the so-called "kinetic temperature".

Answer: At the molecular level, temperature is related to the random motions of the particles (atoms and molecules) in matter. ... The temperature of the puddle, or of any object, is a measure of the average of the individual translational energies of all of its atoms or molecules.

What is the law of variation of the period T of a simple pendulum
DIA [1.3K]
The period of a simple pendulum is given by:
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }
where L is the length of the pendulum and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration. As we can see, the period of a simple pendulum depends only on its length.

A rocket is launched straight up from the earth's surface at a speed of 1.60×104 m/s . what is its speed when it is very far awa
AlladinOne [14]
16,000 m/s
Since it’s speed, and the distance is unknown. Gravity isn’t applying a noticeable force too on the rocket, as if it were, then the rocket would be accelerating negatively.

A 0.050 kg bullet strikes a 5.0 kg stationary wooden block and embeds itself in the block. The block and the bullet fly off toge
natka813 [3]

Answer: 909 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the bullet, m1 = 0.05 kg

Mass of the wooden block, m2 = 5 kg

Final velocities of the block and bullet, v = 9 m/s

Initial velocity of the bullet v1 = ? m/s

From the question, we would notice that there is just an object (i.e the bullet) moving before the collision. Also, even after the collision between the bullet and wood, the bullet and the wood would move as one object. Thus, we would use the conservation of momentum to solve

m1v1 = (m1 + m2) v, on substituting, we have

0.05 * v1 = (0.05 + 5) * 9

0.05 * v1 = 5.05 * 9

0.05 * v1 = 45.45

v1 = 45.45 / 0.05

v1 = 909 m/s

Thus, the original velocity of the bullet was 909 m/s
