What happens when using an air pump to compress air in a cylinder does work on the air in the cylinder ?

Physics
1 answer:
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

work is done on the air in the cylinder

Explanation:

when using air pump to compress air in a cylinder; Work is done on the air in the cylinder and its surroundings

work done = F* d

                  = Magnitude of force * displacement

This is what happens when an air pump is used to compress air into a cylinder

How much heat is evolved when 1234 g of water condenses to a liquid at 100.°c?
lbvjy [14]
During the phase transition vapour --> liquid water, the temperature of the water does not change; the molecules of water release heat and the amounf of heat released is equal to
Q=mL_e
where
m is the mass of the water
L_e is the latent heat of evaporation.

For water, the latent heat of evaporation is L=2257 kJ/kg, while the mass of the water is
m=1234 g=1.234 kg

so, the amount of heat released in the process is
Q=mL_e = (1.234 kg)(2257 kJ/kg)=2785 kJ

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V
