Answer:

The mass of Neptune is 1.023\times 10^{26} kilograms.

Explanation:

From Newton's Law of Gravitation, the gravitational acceleration of Neptune is determined by the following formula:

g = \frac{G\cdot M}{R^{2}} (1)

Where:

G - Gravitational constant, measured in cubic meters per kilogram-square second.

M - Mass of the planet, measured in kilograms.

R - Radius of the planet, measured in meters.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that G = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}, g = 11.529\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and R = 24.340\times 10^{6}\,m, then the mass of Neptune is:

M = \frac{g\cdot R^{2}}{G}

M = \frac{\left(11.529\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (24.340\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2} }{6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} }

M = 1.023\times 10^{26}\,kg

The mass of Neptune is 1.023\times 10^{26} kilograms.

A piston of volume 0.1 m3 contains two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at 300K. If it undergoes an isothermal process and expands
seropon [69]

Answer:

the work is done by the gas on the environment -is W= - 3534.94 J (since the initial pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure , it needs external work to expand)

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas behaviour of the gas , the equation for ideal gas is

P*V=n*R*T

where

P = absolute pressure

V= volume

T= absolute temperature

n= number of moles of gas

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

P=n*R*T/V

the work that is done by the gas is calculated through

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV

for an isothermal process T=constant and since the piston is closed vessel also n=constant during the process then denoting 1 and 2 for initial and final state respectively:

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV =  n*R*T  ∫(1/V) dV = n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)

since

P₁=n*R*T/V₁

P₂=n*R*T/V₂

dividing both equations

V₂/V₁ = P₁/P₂

W= n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)  = n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ )

replacing values

P₁=n*R*T/V₁ = 2 moles* 8.314 J/mol K* 300K / 0.1 m3= 49884 Pa

since P₂ = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

W= n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ ) = 2 mol * 8.314 J/mol K * 300K * (49884 Pa/101325 Pa) = -3534.94 J
