A sample of helium behaves as an ideal gas as energy is

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

0.0321 g

Explanation:

Let helium specific heat $c_h = 5.193 J/g K$

Assuming no energy is lost in the process, by the law of energy conservation we can state that the 20J work done is from the heat transfer to heat it up from 273K to 393K, which is a difference of ΔT = 393 - 273 = 120 K. We have the following heat transfer equation:

$E_h = m_hc_h \Delta T = 20 J$

where $m_h$ is the mass of helium, which we are looking for:

$m_h = \frac{20}{c_h \Delta T} = \frac{20}{5.193 * 120} \approx 0.0321 g$

A system undergoes a two-step process. In the first step, the internal energy of the system increases by 222 J when 150 J of wor

joja [24]

Answer:0 J

Explanation:

Given

For first step

change in internal Energy of the system is $\Delta U_1=222 J$

Work done on the system $W_1=-150 J$

For second step

change in internal Energy of the system is $\Delta U_2=123 J$

Work done on the system $W_2=-195 J$

Work done on the system is considered as Positive and vice-versa.

and from first law of thermodynamics

$Q=\Delta U+W$

for first step

$Q_1=222-150=72 J$

$Q_2=123-195=-72 J$

overall heat added $=Q_1+Q_2$

$Q_{net}=72-72 =0$

For overall Process Heat added is 0 J

Heather drops a ball weighing 0.50kg a distance of 2.0m. If the speed of the ball right after it bounces is the same speed of th

ki77a [65]

The speed of the ball just before impact was v=√(2gh) = 6.26m/s. The acceleration is twice this over the time (twice because the second speed is the same in the other direction, meaning the total change in speed is 2V)
a = 12.52/0.10 = 125.2m/s²
The force is F=ma, so F = 0.5kg·125.2m/s² = 62.6N

The magnetic field at the center of a 1.0-cm-diameter loop is 2.5 mT.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

(a) The current in the wire is 19.89 A

(b) The distance from the wire is 0.159 cm

Explanation:

Given;

magnetic field, B = 2.5 mT

diameter of the wire, d = 1 cm

radius of the wire, r = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m

(a) The current in the wire is calculated as;

$I = \frac{2Br}{\mu_0} \\\\I = \frac{2\times 2.5 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.005 }{4\pi \times 10^{-7} } \\\\I = 19.89 \ A$

(b) The distance from the wire where the magnetic field is 2.5 mT is calculated as;

$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d} \\\\where;\\\\d \ is \ the \ distance \ from \ the \ wire\\\\d = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi B} = \frac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 19.89}{2\pi \times 2.5 \times 10^{-3}} = 0.00159 \ m = 0.159 \ cm$
