A sample of an ideal gas at Pi is initially confined to one chamber of the apparatus represented above, and the other chamber is

initially evacuated. The valve connecting the chambers is opened, and the gas expands at constant temperature to fill both chambers. What best describes ΔS for the process?

If the gas is ideal, the internal energy depends only on the temperature. Therefore, when an ideal gas expands freely, its temperature does not change.

When the valve of the chamber opens, the ideal gas expands and since, it is free to move its entropy increases. Entropy is a measure of uncertainty or randomness. Thus, ΔS becomes positive.

Answer True or Flase1-Electric potential due to a uniform E field doesn’t change with location.2-The equipotential surfaces asso
TEA [102]

Answer:

1. False

2. True

3. True

Explanation:

1- False —> The relation between electric potential and electric field is given such that

-\int\limits^a_b \vec{E}d\vec{l} = V_{ab}

Therefore, for a uniform E field, electric potential is linearly proportional to the distance.

2- True —> The electric field lines always cross the equipotential lines perpendicularly.

3- True —> In order to be a potential difference, one source of electric field is enough. The electric potential will decrease radially according to the following formula:

V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r^2}

There is no test charge in the formula, only the source charge. Even when there is no test charge, the potential difference between points in space can exist.

two flat mirrors are connected to each other such that they make an angle of ψ. a laser enters the system and first reflects off
Firdavs [7]

The angle is 53.5 degrees.

What is a flat mirror?

A plane mirror is a mirror with a flat (planar) reflective surface. For light rays striking a plane mirror, the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.

This ques have been solved in two steps:

Step 1:

given that;

Θ=107 degrees

from figure,

∠BAC=180-ψ-(90-φ)

∠BAC= 90-ψ-φ

∠AOC=180-2(ψ-φ)-2φ

∠AOC=180-2φ

Step 2: part(a)

writing an expression for the psi at point o:

Θ+180-2ψ=180

2ψ=Θ

ψ=Θ/2

above is the expression for ψ

Step 3: part(b)

The angle of ψ is,

ψ=Θ/2

ψ=107/2

ψ=53.5 degrees

Hence, the angle is 53.5 degrees.

A moving curling stone, A, collides head on with stationary stone, B. Stone B has a larger mass than stone A. If friction is neg
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'c': Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.

Explanation:

Let the velocity and the mass of the smaller stone be 'm' and 'v' respectively

and the mass of big rock be 'M'

Initial momentum of the system equals

p_i=mv+0=mv

Now let after the collision the small stone move with a velocity v' and the big roch move with a velocity V'

Thus the final momentum of the system is

p_f=mv'+MV'

Equating initial and the final momenta we get

mv=mv'+MV'\\\\m(v-v')=MV'.....i

Now since the surface is frictionless thus the energy is also conserved thus

E_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Similarly the final energy becomes

E_f=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2\

Equating initial and final energies we get

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2\\\\mv^2=mv'^2+MV'^2\\\\m(v^2-v'^2)=MV'^2\\\\m(v-v')(v+v')=MV'^2......(ii)

Solving i and ii we get

v+v'=V'

Using this in equation i we get

v'=\frac{v(m-M)}{(M-m)}=-v

Thus putting v = -v' in equation i  we get V' = 0

This implies Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.
