Answer:

KE = 11,719 J

Explanation:

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (1.5 kg) (125 m/s)²

KE = 11,719 J

A sealed container holding 0.0255 L of an ideal gas at 0.981 atm and 65 ∘ C is placed into a refrigerator and cooled to 41 ∘ C w

user100 [1]

Answer:

0.911 atm

Explanation:

In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.

Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically:

$p\propto T$

where

p is the gas pressure

T is the absolute temperature

For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:

$\frac{p_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2}{T_2}$

where in this problem:

$p_1=0.981 atm$ is the initial pressure of the gas

$T_1=65^{\circ}+273=338 K$ is the initial absolute temperature of the gas

$T_2=41^{\circ}+273=314 K$ is the final temperature of the gas

Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:

$p_2=\frac{p_1 T_2}{T_1}=\frac{(0.981)(314)}{338}=0.911 atm$

Raindrops fall vertically at 7.5 m/s relative to the Earth. What does an observer in a car moving at 20.2 m/s in a straight line

Vilka [71]

Answer:

vDP = 21.7454 m/s

θ = 200.3693°

Explanation:

Given

vDE = 7.5 m/s

vPE = 20.2 m/s

Required: vDP

Assume that

vDE to be in direction of - j

vPE to be in direction of i

According to relative motion concept the velocity vDP is given by

vDP = vDE - vPE (I)

Substitute in (I) to get that

vDP = - 7.5 j - 20.2 i

The magnitude of vDP is given by

vDP = √((- 7.5)²+(- 20.2)²) m/s = 21.7454 m/s

θ = Arctan (- 7.5/- 20.2) = 20.3693°

θ is in 3rd quadrant so add 180°

θ = 20.3693° + 180° = 200.3693°

With the switch open, roughly what must be the resistance of the resistor on the right for the current out of the battery to be

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The resistance must be 6.67 $\Omega$

Solution:

Resistance, $R_{1} = 20\Omega$

Resistance, $R_{2} = 10\Omega$

For the current to be the same when the switch is open or closed, the resistances must be connected in parallel as current is distributed in parallel with the same voltage across the circuit:

Thus in parallel:

$\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}}$

$\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{10}$

$R_{eq} = 6.67\ \Omega$
