When the absolute temperature of a gas doubles, the average kinetic energy of the gas particles is

1 answer:

7 0

The average kinetic energy is also doubled. B.

That is because there is a direct relationship between absolute temperature of gas and average kinetic energy of the gas.
If the absolute temperature of gas increases or decreases, the average kinetic energy would also increase or decrease accordingly.

A sealed test tube traps 25.0 cm3 of air at a pressure of 1.00 atm and temperature of 18°C. The test tube’s stopper has a diamet

puteri [66]

Answer:

180° C

Explanation:

First we start by finding the area of the stopper.

A = πd²/4, where d = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

A = 3.142 * 0.015² * ¼

A = 1.767*10^-4 m²

Next we find the force on the stopper

F = (P - P•)A, where

F = 10 N

P = pressure inside the tube,

P• = 1 atm

10 = (P - 101325) * 1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 10/1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 56593

P = 56593 + 101325

P = 157918 Pascal

Now, remember, in an ideal gas,

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, where V is constant, then we have

P1/T1 = P2/T2, and when we substitute the values, we have

101325/(273 + 18) = 157918/ T2

101325/291 = 157918/ T2

T2 = (157918 * 291)/101325

T2 = 453 K

T2 = 453 - 273 = 180° C

A vacuum cleaner produces sound with a measured sound level of 75.0 dB. (a) What is the intensity of this sound in W/m2? W/m2 (b

jonny [76]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

Explanation:

Part a)

Level of sound = 75 dB

now we know that

$L = 10 Log\frac{I}{I_0}$

here we know that

$I_0 = 10^{-12} W/m^2$

now we have

$75 = 10 Log(\frac{I}{10^{-12}})$

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

Intensity of sound wave is given as

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho A^2\omega^2 c$

here we know that

$A = \frac{P_o}{Bk}$

so we have

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho(\frac{P_o}{Bk})^2\omega^2 c$

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho P_o^2 \frac{c^3}{B^2}$

now we know

$\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$

$c = 340 m/s$

$B = 1.4 \times 10^5 Pa$

now we have

$3.16 \times 10^{-5} = \frac{1}{2}(1.2)P_o^2\frac{340^3}{(1.4\times 10^5)^2}$

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 2.27 meters above the ground. later, an acorn f

Alexandra [31]

The acorn was at a height of 4.15 m from the ground before it drops.

The acorn takes a time t to fall through a distance h₁, which is the length of the scale. When the acorn reaches the top of the scale, its velocity is u.

Calculate the speed of the acorn at the top of the scale, using the equation of motion,

$s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Since the acorn falls freely under gravity, its acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity g.

Substitute 2.27 m for s (=h₁), 0.301 s for t and 9.8 m/s² for a (=g).

$s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2\\ (2.27 m)=u(0.301s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^2)(0.301s)^2\\ u=\frac{1.8261m}{0.301s} =6.067m/s$

If the acorn starts from rest and reaches a speed of 6.067 m/s at the top of the scale, it would have fallen a distance h₂ to achieve this speed.

Use the equation of motion,

$v^2=u^2+2as$

Substitute 6.067 m/s for v, 0 m/s for u, 9.8 m/s² for a (=g) and h₂ for s.

$v^2=u^2+2as\\ (6.067m/s)^2=(0m/s)^2+2(9.8m/s^2)h_2\\ h_2=\frac{(6.067m/s)^2}{2(9.8m/s^2)} =1.878 m$

The height h above the ground at which the acorn was is given by,

$h=h_1+h_2=(2.27 m)+(1.878 m)=4.148 m$

The acorn was at a height 4.15m from the ground before dropping down.

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium? What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitation

JulijaS [17]

Question:

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium?

A) the electromagnetic force and gravity

B) outward pressure and the strong force

C) outward pressure and inward gravity

D) the strong force and gravity

E) the strong force and kinetic energy

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Outward Pressure and Inward gravity

Explanation:

Gravitational equilibrium is a balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward push of internal gas pressure. It also refers to the condition of a star in which the weight of overlying layers at each point is balanced by the total pressure at that point.

As the weight increases in the lower layers of the sun, the pressure also increases to maintain this balance. So you find that the outward push of pressure balances the inward pull of gravity thus creating an equilibrium.

Why is gravitational equilibrium important?

The simple answer is balance. If for instance the sun as a stable star (which has gravitational equilibrium) loses it's balance, it becomes highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts. These outbursts are caused by the very high radiation pressure at the star's upper layers, which blows significant portions of the matter at the "surface" into space during eruptions that may rage for several years. Of course such a condition is adverse to the existence and support of life.

Cheers!
