Determine the amount of work done on an ideal gas as it is heated in an enclosed thermally insulated cylinder topped with a free

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)

Explanation:

Let's use the first law of thermodynamics

ΔE = Q + W

in this case the cylinder is insulated, so there is no heat transfer

ΔE = W

internal energy can be related to the change in temperature

ΔE = 3/2 n K ΔT

we substitute

3/2 n (T₂-T₁) = W

as the work is on the gas it is negative

W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)

A disc of mass m slides with negligible friction along a flat surface with a velocity v. The disc strikes a wall head-on and bou

qwelly [4]

Answer:

-v/2

Explanation:

Given that:

a disc of mass m

Collides with the wall going through a sliding motion on on the plane smooth surface.

Upon rebounding from the wall its kinetic energy becomes one-fourth of the initial kinetic energy before collision.

<u>We know, kinetic energy is given as:</u>

$KE_i=\frac{1}{2}. m.v^2$

consider this to be the initial kinetic energy of the body.

<u>Now after collision:</u>

$KE_f=\frac{1}{4}\times KE_i$

$KE_f=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}\times m.v^2$

Considering that the mass of the body remains constant before and after collision.

$KE_f=\frac{1}{2}\times m.(\frac{v}{2})^2$

Therefore the velocity of the body after collision will become half of the initial velocity but its direction is also reversed which can be denoted by a negative sign.

You are stranded in a blizzard. You need water to drink to drink,and you're trying to stay warm.should the melt the snow and dri

Crazy boy [7]

It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Abbie is one meter from the center o

klio [65]

Answer:

The acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of an object on a circular path is given by :

$a=r\omega^2$

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Let $r_1$ is distance of Abbie from the merry-go-round and $r_2$ is distance of Zak's from the merry-go-round. Acceleration of Abbie is :
