A total of 25.6 kJ of heat energy is added to a 5.46 L sample of helium at 0.991 atm. The gas is allowed to expand against a fix
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(a) W = 1329.5 J = 1.33 KJ

(b) ΔU = 24.27 KJ

Explanation:

(a)

Work done by the gas can be found by the following formula:

W = P\Delta V

where,

W = Work = ?

P = constant pressure = (0.991 atm)(\frac{101325\ Pa}{1\ atm}) = 100413 Pa

ΔV = Change in Volume = 18.7 L - 5.46 L = (13.24 L)(\frac{0.001\ m^3}{1\ L}) = 0.01324 m³

Therefore,

W = (100413 Pa)(0.01324 m³)

<u>W = 1329.5 J = 1.33 KJ</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Using the first law of thermodynamics:

ΔU = ΔQ - W (negative W for the work done by the system)

where,

ΔU = change in internal energy of the gas = ?

ΔQ = heat added to the system = 25.6 KJ

Therefore,

ΔU = 25.6 KJ - 1.33 KJ

<u>ΔU = 24.27 KJ</u>

How does amplitude determine loudness?
sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves. It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves. Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder.

If a FM radio station broadcasts at 80. 3 MHz (megahertz), what is its wavelength in m (speed of light 3. 0 x 108 m/s)
hammer [34]

Answer:

Wavelength = 3.74 m

Explanation:

In order to find wavelength in "metres", we must first convert megahertz to hertz.

1 MHz = 1 × 10⁶ Hz

80.3 Mhz = <em>x</em>

<em>x </em>= 80.3 × 1 × 10⁶ = 8.03 × 10⁷ Hz

The formula between wave speed, frequency and wavelength is:

v = fλ  [where v is wave speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength]

Reorganise the equation and make λ the subject.

λ = v ÷ f

λ = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (8.03 × 10⁷)

λ = 3.74 m [rounded to 3 significant figures]

Thermal energy transfers throughout the water in the beaker. Describe and explain how this happens?
ziro4ka [17]
The transfer of heat between the bottom surface of the beaker and water inside it is due to Convection phenomenon. When a fluid, such as air or a liquid, is heated and then travels away from the source, it carries the thermal energy along. ... The fluid above a hot surface expands, becomes less dense, and rises

A ball is thrown up into the air with an initial velocity of 18 m/s. A) How high does the ball go? B) Calculate the time needed
kaheart [24]

Answer:

B) t = 1.83 [s]

A) y = 16.51 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} -g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vo = initial velocity = 18 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Note: the negative sign in the above equation means that the acceleration of gravity is acting in the opposite direction to the motion.

A) The maximum height is reached when the final velocity of the ball is zero.

0 = 18 - (9.81*t)

9.81*t = 18

t = 18/9.81

t = 1.83 [s], we found the answer for B.

Now using the following equation.

y = y_{o} + v_{o}*t - 0.5*g*t^{2}\\

where:

y = elevation [m]

Yo = initial elevation = 0

y = 18*(1.83) - 0.5*9.81*(1.83)²

y = 16.51 [m]
