An insulated container with a divider in the middle contains two separated gases. Gas 1 is initially at a higher temperature tha

n gas 2. The divider is then removed. Which of the following observations might be made over a period of time as the two gases mix together, and why
(A) Gas 1 remains at a higher temperature than gas 2 because gas 1 started at a higher temperature.
(B) Gas 1 remains at a higher temperature than gas 2 because gas 1 started with a higher kinetic energy.
(C) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose all of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collision, resulting in gas 2 eventually having a higher temperature than gas 1.
(D) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose some of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collisions, resulting in the two gases eventually having the same temperature.

Answer:

Option (D) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose some of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collisions, resulting in the two gases eventually having the same temperature.

Explanation:

From the question given, Gas 1 was initially at a higher temperature than Gas 2.

As the two gas mixes together, there will be a transfer of heat from Gas 1 molecules to Gas 2 molecules. Now, as this continues over a period of time, the two gas will eventually have the same temperature.

Answer:

The correct answer is <u><em>(D) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose some of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collisions, resulting in the two gases eventually having the same temperature.</em></u>

Explanation:

Molecular kinetic theory is a theory that postulates that matter is made up of a set of particles known as atoms or molecules, which are constantly in motion.  These particles collide continuously with each other and with the walls of the container that contains it. These collisions are carried out kinetically, in other words, energy is transferred without loss.

The kinetic energy of the particles increases with increasing temperature. In this case, gas 1 is initially at a higher temperature than gas 2.  So gas 1 has higher kinetic energy than gas 2.  Then, to reach an equilibrium when the mixture of both gases occurs, gas 1 must lose part of its kinetic energy, transferring it to gas 2 through particle collisions to reach the same temperature.

<u><em>The correct answer is (D) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose some of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collisions, resulting in the two gases eventually having the same temperature.</em></u>

At what rate must a cylindrical spaceship rotate if occupants are to experience simulated gravity of 0.50 gg? Assume the spacesh
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The time needed is T  = 16.8 s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The magnitude of the stimulated acceleration due gravity is  a  =  0.5 g

        The diameter of the spaceship is  d =  35m

       

Generally the force acting on the spaceship is  

       F  =  ma

Given that the spaceship is rotating it implies that the force experienced by the occupant is a centripetal force so

      F  = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Thus  

       ma  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

=>    \frac{v^2}{r}  =  a

      Generally the speed of this spaceship is mathematically represented as

      v =  \frac{2 \pi}{T}

=>    v^2  =   [\frac{2\pi}{T}] ^2

=>     \frac{\frac{4\pi^2 r^2}{T^2} }{r}  = 0.5g

=>       \frac{4 \pi^2 r }{T^2} =  0.5 g

=>         T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4\pi^2 r}{0.5g}}

substituting values

          T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4* (3.142)^2 *(35)}{0.5 * 9.8}}

         T  = 16.8 s

Which vector should be negative?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

 The velocity of a falling object

Explanation:

  The positive X axis is towards right and positive Y axis is towards up, so North direction is positive

  A vector with less than 1 magnitude is not negative, because its magnitude may be in between 0 and 1 which is positive vector.

  Any vector whose magnitude is greater than 1 is never be a negative vector.

  The velocity of a falling object is towards bottom, that is towards negative Y axis. So that vector is negative.

lianna [129]

The products of a chemical reaction are the substances that are changed and the chemicals on the right side of a chemical equation. The correct options are B and C.

<h3>What is chemical reaction?</h3>

The chemical reaction  is the reaction between two reactants which led to the formation of products.

The products are substances which forms after reaction. The reactants are the substances which are original materials.

The reactants lie on the left side and products lie on the right side of the reaction.

Thus, the correct options are B and C.
