What are applications of zeroth law of thermodynamics?​

Physics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Applications of zeroth law of thermodynamics:

1. When we get very hot food, we wait to make it normal. In this case, hot food exchanges heat with surrounding and brings equilibrium.

2. We keep things in the fridge and those things come equilibrium with fridge temperature.

3. Temperature measurement with a thermometer or another device.

4. In the HVAC system, sensors or thermostats are used to indicate temperature. It always comes in a thermal equilibrium with room temperature.

5. If you and the swimming pool you’re in are at the same temperature, no heat is flowing from you to it or from it to you (although the possibility is there). You’re in thermal equilibrium.

Why is the motion of an athlete moving along the circular path with Constant speed considered to be an accelerated motion?
Strike441 [17]

The speed is changing its direction all the time. There is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no acceleration.

This is the general formula for acceleration

a = dv/dt

When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity (the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).

There is a formula (which can be deducted from the previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:

a = v^2/r

Let’s talk about the units:

v is in m/s

r is in m

so v^2/r

is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2

which is the same unit as dv/dt:

dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2

A 0.73-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the bar
Tasya [4]

Answer:

A)  B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T, B) the positive side of the bar is to the West

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we must use the expression of Faraday's law for a moving body

            fem = -  \frac{d \phi }{dt}

            fem = - \frac{d (B l y}{dt}= - B l v- d (B l y) / dt = - B lv

            B = - \frac{fem}{l \ v}

we calculate

             B = - 7.9 10⁻⁴ /(0.73 20)

             B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T

B) to determine which side of the bar is positive, we must use the right hand rule

the thumb points in the direction of the rod movement to the south, the magnetic field points in the horizontal direction and the rod is in the east-west direction.

Therefore the force points in the direction perpendicular to the velocity and the magnetic field is in the east direction; therefore the positive side of the bar is to the West

Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human
Degger [83]

Answer:

1

  The mass of the Potassium-40 is  m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg

2

  The Dose per year in Sieverts is   Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The isotopes of potassium in the body are Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium- 41

    Their abundance is 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%

   The mass of potassium contained in human body is  m = 3.0 g = \frac{3}{1000} = 0.0003 \ kg per kg of the body

    The mass of the first body is  m_1 = 80 \ kg

Now the mass of  potassium  in this body is mathematically evaluated as

       m_p =  m * m_1

substituting value

       m_p =  80  * 0.0003

      m_p  =0.024 kg

The amount of Potassium-40 present  is mathematically evaluated as

      m_{40}} =0.012% * 0.024

      m_{40}} = \frac{0.012}{100}  * 0.024

      m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg

The dose of energy absorbed per year is mathematically represented as

          Dose  = \frac{E}{m_1}

Where E is the energy absorbed which is given as E = 1.10 MeV = 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}

    Substituting value

            Dose  = \frac{ 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}}{80}

            Dose  = 22*10^{-10} J/kg

The Dose in Sieverts is evaluated as

       Dose_s = REB * Dose

       Dose_s = 1.2 * 22*10^{-10}

       Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}

A small block with a mass of 0.0600 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Figur
pogonyaev

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that mass of block=0.0600 kg

Initial speed of block=0.63 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=0.47 m

Final speed=3.29 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=9\times 10^{-2}m

a.We have to find the tension in the cord in the original situation when the block has speed =v_0=0.63 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Because tension is equal to centripetal force

Substitute the values

T=\frac{0.06\times (0.63)^2}{0.47}=0.05 N

b.v=3.29 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{0.06\times (3.29)^2}{0.09}=7.2 N

c.Work don=Final K.E-Initial K.E

W=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-v^2_0)

W=\frac{1}{2}(0.06)((3.29)^2-(0.63)^2)

W=0.31 J
