A gas expands against a constant external pressure of 2.00 atm until its volume has increased from 6.00 to 10.00 L. During this

process, it absorbs 500 J of heat from the surroundings.

a. Calculate the energy change of the gas, DU.
b. Calculate the work, w, done on the gas in an irreversible adiabatic (q =0) process connecting the same initial and final.

Answer:

ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)

W = 810.6 J

Explanation:

a.

Using first law of thermodynamics:

Q = ΔU + W

where,

Q = Heat Absorbed = 500 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy of Gas = ?

W = Work Done = PΔV =

P = Pressure = 2 atm = 202650 Pa

ΔV = Change in Volume = 10 L - 6 L = 4 L = 0.004 m³

Therefore,

Q = ΔU + PΔV

500 J = ΔU + (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

ΔU = 500 J - 810.6 J

<u>ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)</u>

<u></u>

b.

The work done can be simply calculated as:

W = PΔV

W = (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

<u>W = 810.6 J</u>

A small airplane flies 780 miles with an average speed of 260 miles per hour. 1.5 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 lea
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

520 miles per hour

Explanation:

Let the speed of the Boeing 747 be x miles per hour.

The small airplane covers distance of 780 miles with speed 260 miles per hour.

Also,

After 1.5 hours the Boeing 747 leave the same place and reaches at same time. Both covered distance of 780 miles.

So,

<u>Time taken by Boeing 747 + 1.5 hours = Time taken by small plane.</u>

Also,

Time =  Distance/ speed

So,

780 / x + 1.5 = 780/ 260

Solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 520 miles per hour</u>

HURRY PEASE what happens to current when there is a diode on the circuit and why?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The current can't 'split down the parallel branch, because the diode is reverse biased so is blocking the flow of current. So basically it's acting as an open circuit. Also when the current flows it wouldn't reduce the currents amount flow through the resistor.

Using the law of conservation of angular momentum, estimate how fast a collapsed stellar core would spin if its initial spin rat
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}

Explanation:

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that angular momentum remains constant when there is no external moment or forces applied to the system. Let assume that star can be modelled as an sphere, then:

\frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{o}^{2} \cdot \omega_{o} = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{f}^{2} \cdot \omega_{f}

The final angular speed is:

\omega_{f} = \omega_{o}\cdot (\frac{R_{o}}{R_{f}})^{2}

\omega_{f} = (1\,\frac{rev}{day} )\cdot (\frac{10000\,km}{10\,km} )^{2}

\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}

A man pushes on a piano with mass 190 kgkg ; it slides at constant velocity down a ramp that is inclined at 18.0 ∘∘ above the ho
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The magnitude of applied force,parallel to the incline is 575.38 N and parallel to the floor is 605 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the piano (m) = 190 kg

Inclined angle (\theta) = 18 degree

Considering gravity, g = 9.8 ms^-^2

And

Using, sin(18) =0.30 and cos(18)=0.95

<em>FBD diagram is attached with all the force acting on the floor and and the inclined. </em>

We have to find the magnitude of forces,when the man pushes it parallel to the incline and to the floor.

a.

When the man pushes it parallel to the incline.

Balancing the forces as  \sum F=0 .

⇒ F+mgsin(\theta) =0

⇒ F=-mgsin(\theta)

⇒ Here it is negative as the force is acting downward.

⇒ Plugging the values of mass (m) and angle (\theta) .

⇒ F=190\times 9.8\times sin(18)

⇒ F=575.38 N

b.

When the force is parallel to the floor.

⇒ Fcos(\theta)=mgsin(\theta)

⇒ F=\frac{mgsin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ F=\frac{190\times 9.8\times sin(18)}{cos(18)}

⇒ F=605 N

So,

The magnitude of applied force in inclined direction is 575.38 Newton and parallel to the floor is 605 N.

How does the force the Earth exerts on you compare with the force you exert on it?
Pie

Answer:

C.Earth and you exert equal and opposite forces on each other.

Explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this

The force that the earth exerts on any object is due to the force of gravity and is known as weight, F = mg, this force is directed towards the center of the earth, in addition, according to the laws of physics for any action must have a reaction, in this case it is a force that goes out  from the ground and it is directed upwards, this force is called normal and it has the same magnitude of your weight but the opposite direction.

Have a great day.
