Actually the Kinetic Energy, which is also known as the energy of motion is directly proportional to temperature. So the higher the temperature is, the faster the gas particles move so they have possess more kinetic energy.

This temperature is in absolute units so we convert to Kelvin:

200 C = 473.15 K

100 C = 373.15 K

 

So the amount increase is:

473.15 / 373.15 = 1.268

 

<span>It will increase by a factor of 1.268 or 126.8%</span>

The average kinetic energy of the gas will increase by a factor of 1.27

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The Ideal Gas Law that needs to be recalled is:

\large {\boxed {PV = nRT} }

<em>P = Pressure (Pa)</em>

<em>V = Volume (m³)</em>

<em>n = number of moles (moles)</em>

<em>R = Gas Constant (8.314 J/mol K)</em>

<em>T = Absolute Temperature (K)</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial temperature of the gas = T₁ = 100°C = 373 K

final temperature of the gas = T₂ = 200°C = 473 K

<u>Asked:</u>

ratio of average kinetic energy of the gas = Ek₁ : Ek₂

<u>Solution:</u>

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = \frac{3}{2}kT_1 : \frac{3}{2}kT_2

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = T_1 : T_2

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = 373 : 473

Ek_2 = \frac{473}{373} Ek_1

Ek_2 \approx 1.27 \times Ek_1

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

The average kinetic energy of the gas will increase by a factor of 1.27 if the temperature of a gas is raised from 100°C to 200°C.

A turntable must spin at 33.4 rpm (3.50 rad/s) to play an old-fashioned vinyl record. how much torque must the motor deliver if
Westkost [7]
In order to compute the torque required, we may apply Newton's second law for circular motion:
Torque = moment of inertia * angular acceleration

For this, we require the angular acceleration, α. We may calculate this using:
α = Δω/Δt
The time taken to achieve rotational speed may be calculated using:
time = 1 revolution * 2π radians per revolution / 3.5 radians per second
time = 1.80 seconds

α = (3.5 - 0) / 1.8
α = 1.94 rad/s²

The moment of inertia of a thin disc is given by:
I = MR²/2
I = (0.21*0.1525²)/2
I = 0.002

τ = 1.94 * 0.002
τ = 0.004

The torque is 0.004

The speed of sound in wood is ____ the speed of sound in water.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

greater

Explanation:

the speed of sound in steel is greater than water. the speed of sound in wood is not, In water, the particles are much closer together, and they can quickly transmit vibration energy from one particle to the next. This means that the sound wave travels over four times faster than it would in air, but it takes a lot of energy to start the vibration.

Wood is less dense and force can make a sound.
