Define temperature using molecular theory

2 answers:

6 0

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.

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The relationship between angle of an incline and the acceleration of an object moving down the incline.

As the angle of an incline increases, so does the acceleration of the body moving down the incline increases, resolving the force acting on an inclined object

Parallel force = mgsin, perpendicular = mgcosΘ

With th weigh component 'mg' of the parallel force accounting for the acceleration of the body down the incline.

mgsinΘ = ma

Fnet = ma

B.) From Fnet = ma

Fnet = ma

a = Fnet / m

Where Fnet = Net force = mgsinΘ, a = acceleration

A catapult used by medieval armies hurls a stone of mass 32.0 kg with a velocity of 50.0 m/s at a 30.0 degree angle above the ho

NISA [10]

Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled when the stone returns to its original height = 220.81 m

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of catapult:-

At maximum height,

Initial velocity, u = 50 sin30 = 25 m/s

Acceleration , a = -9.81 m/s²

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = 25 - 9.81 x t

t = 2.55 s

Time of flight = 2 x Time to reach maximum height = 2 x 2.55 = 3.1 s

Considering horizontal motion of catapult:-

Initial velocity, u = 50 cos30 = 43.30 m/s

Acceleration , a = 0 m/s²

Time, t = 5.10 s

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 43.30 x 5.10 + 0.5 x 0 x 5.10²

s = 220.81 m

The horizontal distance traveled when the stone returns to its original height = 220.81 m
