A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time el

apsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes. How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.

A gas is compressed in a cylinder from a volume of 20.0 l to 2.0 l by a constant pressure of 10.0 atm. calculate the amount of w
jok3333 [9.3K]
First, we need to convert the pressure in SI units. Keeping in mind that 1 atm = 1.01 \cdot 10^5 Pa:
p=10.0 atm =1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa

The initial and final volume of the gas are (keeping in mind that 1.0 L = 0.001 m^3):
V_i = 20.0 L=0.020 m^3
V_f = 2.0 L=0.002 m^3

So, the work done on the gas by the surrounding is
W= -p \Delta V=-p(V_f-V_i)=-(1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa)(0.002 m^3-0.020 m^3)=18180 J
And the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.

The children at the local park think the slide is too slow. There is too much fiction. What could you do to decrease the amount
igor_vitrenko [27]
In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:

-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide.  The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.

-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.

-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.

-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes.  Make the slide like an air hockey table.

-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water.  The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.

-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide.  If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.

-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide.  Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.
