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 cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.5 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid

bixtya [17]

Answer:

$u_{s}=0.56$

Explanation:

For the cat to stay in place on the merry go round without sliding the magnitude of maximum static friction must be equal to magnitude of centripetal force

$F_{s.max}=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\$

Where the r is the radius of merry-go-round and v is the tangential speed

but

$F_{s.max}=u_{s}F_{N}=u_{s}mg$

So we have

$u_{s}mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\ u_{s}=\frac{v^2}{gr}\\ Where\\v=\frac{2\pi R}{T} \\So\\u_{s}=\frac{(\frac{2\pi R}{T} )^2}{gr} \\u_{s}=\frac{4\pi^2 r}{gT^2}$
