Continental drift is one of the earliest ways that geologists thought continents moved over time. It is believed in this theory that the Earth’s movement of the continents are relative to each other. This idea was subsumed by the plate tectonics theory. Now, what is the speed of the continental drift?

Continental drift speed is 1x 10^-9 m/s.
This is equivalent to a speed of:
1 x 10 ^-9 m/s
= 1 x 0. 000 000 000 1 m/s
= 0. 000 000 000 1 m/s

A cubical box measuring 1.29 m on each side contains a monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 2.0 atm How much thermal energy do t

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a) $U = 652.545\,kJ$ , b) $v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

a) According to the First Law of Thermodinamics, the system is not reporting any work, mass or heat interactions. Besides, let consider that such box is rigid and, therefore, heat contained inside is the consequence of internal energy.

$Q = U$

The internal energy for a monoatomic ideal gas is:

$U = \frac{3}{2} \cdot n \cdot R_{u} \cdot T$

Let assume that cubical box contains just one kilomole of monoatomic gas. Then, the temperature is determined from the Equation of State for Ideal Gases:

$T = \frac{P\cdot V}{n\cdot R_{u}}$

$T = \frac{(202.65\,kPa)\cdot(1.29\,m)^{3}}{(1\,kmole)\cdot(8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K} )}$

$T = 52.325\,K$

The thermal energy contained by the gas is:

$U = \frac{3}{2}\cdot (1\,kmole)\cdot (8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K})\cdot (52.325\,K)$

$U = 652.545\,kJ$

b) The physical model for the cat is constructed from Work-Energy Theorem:

$U = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{cat} \cdot v^{2}$

The speed of the cat is obtained by isolating the respective variable and the replacement of every known variable by numerical values:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot U}{m_{cat}}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (652.545 \times 10^{3}\,J)}{3\,kg} }$

$v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}$

Fill in the blanks below: Urgently need help!!!

miskamm [114]

Answer:

In a circuit , VOLTAGE can be said to be the "source" or the "push of electrons". This push then creates what is known as a  CURRENT , which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit. This flow can the slowed down or restricted by RESISTOR , and this is also what can be harnessed in order to use electric ENERGY .

Explanation:

Voltage:

It is the 'push' that causes charges to move in a wire or other electrical conductor, also it is a Source input to the electric circuit.

Measured in Volts.

Current:

An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge from a point or through a region.

Measured in Ampere.

Resistor:

Resistor is used to resist the flow of charge or to resist the current called as Resistance.

Measured in Ohms.

Electric Energy:

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.

Measured in Joules.
