Answer: The average speed of the car is 32 km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken.

To calculate the average speed of the runner, we use the equation:

$\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

We are given:

Total distance traveled = (60 + 68) km = 128 km

Total time taken = (2 + 2) hr = 4 hr

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Average speed of car}=\frac{128km}{4hr}=32km/hr$

Hence, the average speed of the car is 32 km/hr

frozen [14]

Answer:

8387 J

Explanation:

work produced= 5284 J

efficiency of 63%

the efficiency η= Work done÷ heat supplied

$\eta= \frac{W}{Q_s}$

$0.63= \frac{5284}{Q_s}$

solving $Q_s= 8397 J$

therefore, the input heat= 8387 J

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a) P_α = exp (-ΔE / kT), b) P_β = 0.145 , d) ΔE = 309.7 meV

Explanation:

The expression for the number of molecules or particles in a given state in Boltzmann's expression

n = n₀ exp (-ΔE / kT)

Where k is the Bolztmann constant and T the absolute temperature

The probability is defined as the number of molecules in a given state over the total number of particles

P = n / n₀ = exp (- ΔE / kT)

Let's apply this expression to our case

a) P_α = n_α / n₀ = exp (-ΔE / kT)

b) the Boltzmann constant

k = 1,381 10⁻²³ J / K (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J) = 8.63 10⁻⁵ eV / K

kT = 8.63 105 300 = 2,589 10⁻² eV

P_β = exp (- 50 10⁻³ /2.589 10⁻² = exp (-1.931)

P_β = 0.145

c) If the temperature approaches absolute zero, the so-called is very high, so there is no energy to reach the excited state, therefore or all the molecules go to the alpha state

d) For molecules to spend ¼ of the time in this beta there must be ¼ of molecules in this state since the decay is constant.

P_β = ¼ = 0.25

P_β = exp (- ΔE / kT)

ΔE = -kT ln P_β

ΔE = - 2,589 10⁻² ln 0.25

ΔE = 0.3097 eV

ΔE = 309.7 meV
