A rigid tank contains 2 kg of an ideal gas at 4 atm and 40 C. Now a valve is opened, and half of the mass of the gas is allowed

to escape. if the final pressure in the tank is 2.2 atm. The final temperature in the tank is: Hint: make sure you convert the units of temperature and pressure to the proper units

Answer:

Final Temperature = 71 °C

Explanation:

In this case, the ideal gas equation is written as;

PV = mRT

Where;

P is pressure

V is volume

m is mass

R is gas constant

T is temperature

We will take the volume to be constant.

So, in the initial state, we have;

P1•V = m1•R•T1 - - - eq(1)

In the final state, we have;

P2•V = m2•R•T2 - - - - eq(2)

Combining eq (1) and eq(2),we have;

P1•m2•R•T2 = P2•m1•R•T1

Dividing both sides by R gives;

P1•m2•T2 = P2•m1•T1

Making T2 the subject gives;

T2 = (P2•m1•T1)/(P1•m2)

Now, we are given;

m1 = 2kg

m2 = ½*2 = 1kg

P1 = 4 atm

P2 = 2.2 atm

T1 = 40°C = 273 + 40 K = 313K

Plugging in this values into the T2 equation, we have;

T2 = (2.2 × 2 × 313)/(4 × 1)

T2 = 344 K

Converting to °C, we have;

T2 = 344 - 273 = 71 °C

A person has long hair hanging straight down from their head. A second person rubs a balloon with felt so that the balloon is ne
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The best explanation is that the first person is grounded to the earth, and his/her body either draws up negative charges from the earth, or tend to conducts negative charges to the earth, depending on the charge on the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

The earth is an infinite store for charges. In the first case where the second person brings a negatively charged balloon towards the first person, the negative charges on the balloon induces the first person's body to tend to attract the negative charges on the balloon through the first person's body to the positive charges within the earth. In the second case when again a positively charged balloon is brought near the first person's hair, the positive charges on the balloon induce the first person's body into drawing up negative charges from within the earth. This charges, and their opposite induced charges, create an attractive force between the hair strands and the balloons.

An unbalanced force of 500 N is applied to a 75 kg object. What is the acceleration of the object?
NemiM [27]

1. Define Newtons second law of motion (this will help put things into perspective)

2.Get the mass of the object (in this case 75 kg)

3.The net force acting on the object...find it (in this case 500 N)

4.Change the equation to F=ma (500=75a)

5.Divide both sides by 75 and that is the acceleration.
