Answer:

The final equilibrium T_{f} = 25.7[°C]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must have a clear concept of heat transfer. Heat transfer is defined as the transmission of heat from one body that is at a higher temperature to another at a lower temperature.

That is to say for this case the heat is transferred from the iron to the water, the temperature of the water will increase, while the temperature of the iron will decrease. At the end of the process a thermal balance is found, i.e. the temperature of iron and water will be equal.

The temperature of thermal equilibrium will be T_f.

The heat absorbed by water will be equal to the heat rejected by Iron.

Q_{iron} = Q_{water}

Heat transfer can be found by means of the following equation.

Q_{iron}=m*C_{piron}*(T_{i}-T_{f})

where:

Qiron = Iron heat transfer [kJ]

m = iron mass = 200 [g] = 0.2 [kg]

T_i = Initial temperature of the iron = 300 [°C]

T_f = final temperature [°C]

Q_{water}=m*C_{pwater}*(T_{f}-T_{iwater})

Cp_iron = 437 [J/kg*°C]

Cp_water = 4200 [J/kg*°C]

0.2*437*(300-T_{f})=1*4200*(T_{f}-20)\\26220-87.4*T_{f}=4200*T_{f}-84000\\26220+84000=4200*T_{f}+87.4*T_{f}\\110220 = 4287.4*T_{f}\\T_{f}=25.7[C]

Write a collision scenario here. If you choose your own collision, you can have neither, one, or both of the objects break. Be s
OleMash [197]

Answer:

My scenario would be A Car vs. a guard rail on a road.  You have a car that is coming down a Highway at a speed of 43 Mph Miles per hour (69.2018 Kmh)

And it hits a steel guardrail and the car smashes in at the front and the guardrail is only bent while the car has the bumper and the hood along with the headlights and windshield along with the passenger side window break.

Explanation:

This is caused by so much force reacting from one object to another but also depends on molecular density.

In a mixture of the gases oxygen and helium, which statement is valid: (a) the helium molecules will be moving faster than the o
mixer [17]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

Given:

In a mixture of the gases oxygen and helium, which statement is valid:

(a) the helium molecules will be moving faster than the oxygen molecules, on average

(b) both kinds of molecules will be moving at the same speed

(c) the oxygen molecules will, on average, be moving more rapidly than the helium molecules

(d) the kinetic energy of the helium will exceed that of the oxygen

(e) none of the above

Solution:

- We will use Boltzmann distribution to answer this question. The root mean square speed of molecules of a gas gives the average speed as follows:

                                        V_rms = sqrt ( 3 k T / m )

- Where, k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the temperature and m is the mass of a single molecule of a gas.

- In general, a mixture has a constant equilibrium temperature T_eq.

- So the v_rms is governed by the mass of a single molecule.

- We know that mass of single molecule of Oxygen is higher than that of Helium molecule. Hence, the relation of mass is inversely proportional to square of root mean speed. So the helium molecules will be moving faster than the oxygen molecules.

- Note: The kinetic energy of the mixture remains constant because it is due to the interaction of the molecules within i.e oxygen and helium. Which makes the kinetic energy independent of mass.

                                     E_k = 0.5*m*v_rms^2

                                     E_k = 0.5*m*(3*k*T/ m )

                                    E_k = 0.5*3*k*T

Hence, E_k is only the function of Temperature which we already established to remain constant at equilibrium.
