Statement I: At the same temperature lighter gas molecules have a higher average velocity than heavier gas molecules.

Physics
1 answer:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Statement 1 and statement 2 are correct and statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1

Explanation:

Both the velocity and kinetic energy of a gas molecule depends on its relative molecular mass according to Graham's law of diffusion in gases. Hence, the greater the relative molecular mass of the gas, the lesser its average velocity and kinetic energy.

Hence we can see that statement 2 vividly explains the postulation of statement 1 and makes the points more easily comprehensible.

One car is sitting still the other is moving at a velocity of 4m/s. If two cars have a mass of 0.04 kg run into each other, what
Leni [432]

Answer:

p = 0.16 kgm/s

Explanation:

the initial momentum combined of the two cars and the final momentum of the paired cares are the same, so we just need to find the initial momentum

p = m1v1 + m2v2

p = 0.04*4 + 0.04*0

p = 0.04*4

p = 0.16 kgm/s

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
Vlad [161]

Answer: 44.57°C

Explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/kg

From the question, we can infer that 625 × 4.186 joules of heat will be lost when there's a 1°C drop of water.

We then calculate the amount if degrees that it'll take to cool for 7.96 x 10⁴J. This will be:

= 7.96 × 10⁴ /(625 × 4.186)

= 79600/(625 x 4.186)

= 79600/2616.25

= 30.43°C

The final temperature will then be:

= 75.0°C - 30.43°C

= 44.57°C

A crate falls from an airplane flying horizontally at an altitude of 2,000 m.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

20.2 seconds

Explanation:

The airplane (and therefore the crate) initially has no vertical velocity, so v₀ = 0 m/s.

The crate is in free fall, so a = -9.8 m/s².

The crate falls downward, so Δx = -2000 m.

Find: t, the time it takes for the crate to land.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

-2000 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 20.2 s

It takes 20.2 seconds for the crate to land.

algol13
That's right, the correct answer is
<span>A) The isotopes have a long half-life and only remain radioactive for a long time period

The half life of an isotope is the time it takes for the amount of the sample to reduce to half of its initial value. If an isotope has a long half-life, it means it takes a long time to reduce down to a significant level, so it will remain radioactive for a long time period.</span>
