Can there be any heat transfer between two bodies that are at the same temperature but at different pressures?

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the two bodies at different temperatures then heat transfer takes place between two bodies. Temperature is the necessary condition for the heat transfer.

The energy can flow due to pressure difference but the heat transfer can not take place only due to pressure difference. Heat transfer needs temperature difference.

Therefore the answer will be No.

A rifle with a weight of 25 N fires a 4.5-g bullet with a speed of 240 m/s. (a) Find the recoil speed of the rifle. m/s (b) If a

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The recoil speed of the man and rifle is $v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

The expression for the force in terms of mg is as follows;

F=mg

Here, m is the mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Rearrange the expression for mass.

$m=\frac{F}{g}$

Calculate the combined mass of the man and rifle.

$m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{g}$

Put $g=9.8 ms^{-2}$ .

$m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{9.8}$

$m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg$

The expression for the conservation of momentum is as follows as;

$m_{man}u_{man}+m_{bullet}u_{bullet}=m_{man}v_{man}+m_{rifle}v_{man,rifle}$

Here, $m_{man,rifle}$ is the mass of the man and rifle, $m_{rifle}$ is the mass of the rifle, $u_{man},u{bullet}$ are the initial velocities of the man and bullet and $v_{man},v{man,rifle}$ are the final velocities of the man and rifle and rifle.

It is given in the problem that a rifle with a weight of 25 N fires a 4.5-g bullet with a speed of 240 m/s.

Convert mass of rifle from gram to kilogram.

$m_{bullet}=4.5 g$

$m_{bullet}=.0045 kg$

Put $m_{bullet}=.0045 kg$ , $m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg$ , $u_{man,rifle}=0$ , $v_{bullet}= 240 ms^{-1}$ and $u_{bullet}=0$ .

$m_{man}(0)+m_{bullet}(0)=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)$

$0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)$

$0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+1.08$

$(68.88)v_{man,rifle}=\frac{-1.08}{68.88}$

$v_{man,rifle}=-0.016 ms^{-1}$

Therefore, the recoil speed of the man and rifle is $v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}$ .

Imagine how mercury might be different if it had the same mass as earth. Explain.

maxonik [38]

I believe if it were heavier with more mass, then the sun would pull it in and there would be no mercury. It might also be hotter.

Assume that the stopping distance of a van varies directly with the square of the speed. A van traveling 40 miles per hour can s

Daniel [21]

Answer:

d = 100.8 ft

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the van is 40 miles then the stopping distance is given as 70 feet

here we know that

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad$

so here we have

$0^2 - 40^2 = 2 a (70 feet)$

now again if the speed is increased to 48 mph then let say the stopping distance is "d"

so we will have

$0^2 - 48^2 = 2 a (d)$

now divide the above two equations

$\frac{40^2}{48^2} = \frac{70 feet}{d}$

$d = 100.8 ft$

What is the frequency of this wave?

Anastasy [175]

In telecommunication systems, Carrier frequency is a technical term used to indicate: ... The frequency of the unmodulated electromagnetic wave at the output of a conventional amplitude-modulated (AM-unsupressed carrier), or frequency-modulated (FM), or phase-modulated (PM) radio transmitter.
