A gas exerts less pressure when it has a

1 answer:

4 0

The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert small force on the wall The pressure exerted by the gas is due to the sum of all these collision forces.The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the pressure.

Suppose that a charged particle of diameter 1.00 micrometer moves with constant speed in an electric field of magnitude 1.00×105

Dovator [93]

It's a bit of a trick question, had the same one on my homework. You're given an electric field strength (1*10^5 N/C for mine), a drag force (7.25*10^-11 N) and the critical info is that it's moving with constant velocity(the particle is in equilibrium/not accelerating).
All you need is F=(K*Q1*Q2)/r^2 
Just set F=the drag force and the electric field strength is (K*Q2)/r^2, plugging those values in gives you 
(7.25*10^-11 N) = (1*10^5 N/C)*Q1 ---> Q1 = 7.25*10^-16 C

The length of a rectangular sheet of metal decreases by 34.5 cm. Its width decreases proportionally. If the sheets original widt

devlian [24]

The original width was 94.71 cm
The area decreased 33.1% 

The equation for the final size is 
2X^2 = 1.2 m^2 
X^2 - 0.6 m^2 
X^2 = 10000 * .6 cm 
X = 77.46 cm (this is the width) 

The length is 2 * 77.46 = 154.92 cm 

The original length was 154.92 + 34.5 = 189.42 cm 
The original width was 189.42 / 2 = 94.71 cm 

The original area was 94.71 * 189.92 = 17939.9 cm^2 
The new area is 79.46 * 154.92 = 12000.1 cm^2 

The difference between the original and current area is 17939.9 - 12000.1 = 5939.86 cm^2 

The percentage the area decreased is 5939.86 ' 17939.9 = 33.1%

Temperature and pressure of a region upstream of a shockwave are 295 K and 1.01* 109 N/m². Just downstream the shockwave, the te

seraphim [82]

Answer:

change in internal energy 3.62*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in enthalapy 5.07*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in entropy 382.79 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}

Explanation:

adiabatic constant $\gamma =1.4$

specific heat is given as $=\frac{\gamma R}{\gamma -1}$

gas constant =287 J⋅kg−1⋅K−1

$Cp = \frac{1.4*287}{1.4-1} = 1004.5 Jkg^{-1} k^{-1}$

specific heat at constant volume

$Cv = \frac{R}{\gamma -1} = \frac{287}{1.4-1} = 717.5 Jkg^{-1} k^{-1}$

change in internal energy $= Cv(T_2 -T_1)$

$\Delta U = 717.5 (800-295) = 3.62*10^5 J kg^{-1}$

change in enthalapy $\Delta H = Cp(T_2 -T_1)$

$\Delta H = 1004.5*(800-295) = 5.07*10^5 J kg^{-1}$

change in entropy

$\Delta S =Cp ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1}) -R*ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})$

$\Delta S =1004.5 ln(\frac{800}{295}) -287*ln(\frac{8.74*10^5}{1.01*10^5})$

$\Delta S = 382.79 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$

A magnetic field is uniform over a flat, horizontal circular region with a radius of 1.50 mm, and the field varies with time. In

atroni [7]

Answer:

The average induced emf around the border of the circular region is $8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of circular region, r = 1.5 mm

Initial magnetic field, B = 0

Final magnetic field, B' = 1.5 T

The magnetic field is pointing upward when viewed from above, perpendicular to the circular plane in a time of 125 ms. We need to find the average induced emf around the border of the circular region. It is given by the rate of change of magnetic flux as :

$\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=A\dfrac{-d(B'-B)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\pi (1.5\times 10^{-3})^2\times \dfrac{1.5}{0.125}\\\\\epsilon=8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V$

So, the average induced emf around the border of the circular region is $8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V$ .
