A scientist reports a measurement of the temperature of the surface of a newly discovered planet as negative 20 Kelvin. What con

clusion can you draw from this report
Physics

jarptica [38.1K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The temperature of this newly discovered planet violates the third law of thermodynamic, there is a mistake in this value.

Explanation:

The third law of the Thermodynamic says:

<u> At zero kelvin all molecular movement stops, which means that the entropy will be zero at this temperature.</u>

So we can say there is no thermodynamic system that has temperature values less than 0 K.

The conclusion of the report will be.

The temperature of this new planet violates the third law of thermodynamic, there is a mistake in this value.

I hope it helps you!

A concave mirror has a radius of curvature of 1.6m. Find the focal length
Yuki888 [10]
Given,

Radius of curvature of concave mirror = 1.6m

We know that ,

Focal length = radius/2

Hence ,

Focal length of concave mirror = radius of concave mirror /2

=> F = 1.6/2

=> F = 0.8m

Hence the focal length of concave mirror is 0.8 m

Practice entering numbers that include a power of 10 by entering the diameter of a hydrogen atom in its ground state, dH = 1.06
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

1.06085\times 10^{-10}\ m

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

m = Mass of electron = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

e = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

n = 1 (ground state)

Angular momentum is given by

L=mvr

From Bohr's atomic model we have

L=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi}

mvr=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi mr}

The centripetal force will balance the electrostatic force

\dfrac{ke^2}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{ke^2}{r}=mv^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{ke^2}{r}=m(\dfrac{nh}{2\pi mr})^2\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{n^2h^2}{4\pi^2mke^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{1^2\times (6.626\times 10^{-34})^2}{4\pi^2 \times 9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 8.99\times 10^{9}\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}\\\Rightarrow r=5.30426\times 10^{-11}\ m

The diameter is 2\times 5.30426\times 10^{-11}=1.06085\times 10^{-10}\ m

You drop a ball from a height of 2.0 m, and it bounces back to a height of 1.5 m. (a) what fraction of its initial energy is los
Scilla [17]

a) At a position of 2.0m, the Initial energy is all made up of the potential energy=m*g*hi<span>
and meanwhile at 1.5 all its energy is also potential energy=m*g*hf 

The percentage of energy remaining is E=m*g*hi/m*g*hf x 100 

and since mass and gravity are constant so it leaves us with just E=hi/hf 
which 1.5/2.0 x100= 75% so we see that we lost 25% of the energy or 0.25 in fraction 

b) Here use the equation vf^2=vi^2+2gd 

<span>where g is gravity, vf is the final velocity and vi is the initial velocity while d is the distance travelled

so in here we are looking for the vi so let us isolate that variable 
we know that at maximum height or peak, the velocity is 0 so vf is 0 

therefore,</span></span>

vi =sqrt(-2gd) <span>
vi =sqrt(-2x-9.81x1.5) </span>
<span>vi =5.4 m/s

<span>c) The energy was converted to heat due to friction with the air and the ground.</span></span>
