When the surface of a hard disk is scratched an some or all of the files are destroyed, it is called a head crash. It is a result of a disk in contact with the rotating platter causing it to permanently damage a very sensitive part of the disk.<span />

Suppose 3 mol of neon (an ideal monatomic gas) at STP are compressed slowly and isothermally to 0.19 the original volume. The ga

Radda [10]

Answer:

a. 273 K b. 90.1 K c. 5.26 atm d. 0.33 atm

Explanation:

For isothermal expansion PV = constant

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ where P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm (standard pressure), V₁ = initial volume of gas, P₂ = final pressure of gas and V₂ = final volume of gas,

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

Since V₂/V₁ = 0.19,

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

P₂ = 1 atm (1/0.19)

P₂ = 5.26 atm

For an adiabatic expansion, PVⁿ = constant where n = ratio of molar heat capacities = 5/3 for monoatomic gas

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ where P₂ = initial pressure of gas = 5.26 atm, V₂ = initial volume of gas, P₃ = final pressure of gas and V₃ = final volume of gas,

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂V₂ⁿ/V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

Since V₃ = V₁ ,V₂/V₃ = V₂/V₁ = 0.19

1/0.19,

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

P₃ = 5.26 atm (0.19)⁽⁵/³⁾

P₃ = 5.26 atm × 0.0628

P₃ = 0.33 atm

Using the ideal gas equation

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄ where P₃ = pressure after adiabatic expansion = 0.33 atm , V₃ = volume after adiabatic expansion, T₃ = temperature after adiabatic expansion P₄ = initial pressure of gas = P₁ = 1 atm , V₄ = initial volume of gas = V₁ and T₄ = initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 273 K (standard temperature)

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄

T₃ = P₃V₃T₄/P₄V₄

T₃ = (P₃/P₄)(V₃/V₄)T₂

Since V₃ = V₄ = V₁ and P₄ = P₁

V₃/V₄ = 1 and P₃/P₄ = P₃/P₁

T₃ = (P₃/P₁)(V₃/V₄)T₂

T₃ = (0.33 atm/1 atm)(1)273 K

T₃ = 90.1 K

So,

a. The highest temperature attained by the gas is T₁ = 273 K

b. The lowest temperature attained by the gas = T₃ = 90.1 K

c. The highest pressure attained by the gas is P₂ = 5.26 atm

d. The lowest pressure attained by the gas is P₃ = 0.33 atm

Communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit where they stay directly over a fixed point on the equator as the earth

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

a) 24 Hs. b) 0.224 m/s² c) 448 N

Explanation:

a) As satellites in a geosynchronous orbits, stay directly over a point fixed on the Equator while the Earth rotates, the only way that this can be possible, if the period of the satellite (time to complete a full orbit) is equal to the time that the Earth uses to complete a spin itself, which is exactly one day.

The value of g, is just the acceleration due to the gravitational attraction between the satellite and the Earth.

According the Universal Law of Gravitation, this force can be written in this way:

Fg = ms . a = G me. ms / (re+rs)² ⇒a=g= G me / (re + rs)²

Replacing by the values of G, me, re, and rs, we get:

g = 6.67. 10⁻¹¹ . 5.97.10²⁴ / (6.37 10⁶ + 3.58.10⁷)² m/s²

g= 0.224 m/s²

c) If we call "weight" to the magnitude of the gravitational force on the satellite (as we do with masses on Earth), we can find this value, just solving the equation for Fg, as follows:

Fg = G me . ms / (re + rs)²

Replacing by the values, we find:

Fg = 448 N
