A gas is compressed at a constant pressure of 0.800 atm from 12.00 L to 3.00 L. In the process, 390 J of energy leaves the gas b
Andru [333]

Answer:

a)W= - 720 J

b)ΔU= 330 J

Explanation:

Given that

P = 0.8 atm

We know that 1 atm = 100 KPa

P = 80 KPa

V₁ = 12 L = 0.012 m³       ( 1000 L = 1 m³)

V₂ = 3 L = 0.003 m³

Q= - 390 J ( heat is leaving from the system )

We know that work done by gas given as

W = P (V₂ -V₁ )

W= 80 x ( 0.003 - 0.012 ) KJ

W= - 0.72 KJ

W= - 720 J    ( Negative sign indicates work done on the gas)

From first law of thermodynamics

Q = W + ΔU

ΔU=Change in the internal energy

Now by putting the values

- 390 = - 720 + ΔU

ΔU= 720 - 390  J

ΔU= 330 J

A box mass of 24kg is being pulled horizontally on a rough surface by an applied force of 585N. The coefficient of kinetic frict
Elan Coil [88]

the normal force is the force applied opposite to the weight of the was box. So the normal force is equal to the weight of the box = 24 kg *(9.81 m/s2) = 235.44 N

the acceleration of the box be solve using newtons 2nd law of motion:

F = ma

a = F/ m = 585 N/ 24 kg = 24.38 m/s2

The plates of a spherical capacitor have radii 6.25 cm and 15.0 crn. The space between the two spheres is filled with a material
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Explanation:

Radius = R₁ = 6.25 cm = 6.25×10⁻² m

Radius = R₂ = 15 cm = 15×10⁻² m

Dielectric constant = k = 4.8

Electric constant = ε₀ = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

ε/ε₀=k

ε=kε₀

Capacitance\ (C)=\frac{4\pi k\epsilon_0 R_1\times R_2}{R_2-R_1}\\\Rightarrow C=\frac{4\pi 4.8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 15\times 10^{-2}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{15\times 10^{-2}-6.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow C=0.572\times 10^{-10}\ Farad

∴ Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Consider two massless springs connected in series. Spring 1 has a spring constant k1, and spring 2 has a spring constant k2. A c
Andru [333]

Answer:

a. k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂)⁻¹ b. k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃)⁻¹

Explanation:

Since only one force F acts, the force on spring with spring constant k₁ is F = k₁x₁ where x₁ is its extension

the force on spring with spring constant k₂ is F = k₂x₂ where x₁ is its extension

Let F = kx be the force on the equivalent spring with spring constant k and extension x.

The total extension , x = x₁ + x₂

x = F/k = F/k₁ + F/k₂

1/k = 1/k₁ + 1/k₂

k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂)⁻¹

B

The force on spring with spring constant k₃ is F = k₃x₃ where x₃ is its extension

Let F = kx be the force on the equivalent spring with spring constant k and extension x.

The total extension , x = x₁ + x₂ + x₃

x = F/k = F/k₁ + F/k₂ + F/k₃

1/k = 1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃

k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃)⁻¹
