Answer:
24.084 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum
Total momentum before collision equals to the total momentum after collision
Since momentum=mv where m is mass and v is velocity
where 
is the mass of the truck, 
is velocity of the truck, 
is the common velocity of moving and standing truck after collision and 
is the mass of the standing truck
Making the subject we obtain
Substituting as 25000 Kg, as 22.3 m/s, as 2000 Kg we obtain
Therefore, assuming no friction and considering that after collision they still move eastwards hence common velocity and initial truck velocities are positive
The truck was moving at 24.084 m/s
If it;s a good insulator, there'll be no heat transfer warm to cold. So, over time, given the insulation ... nothing should happen ...
Answer:
According to Einstein's famous equation, matter can convert into energy (and viceversa) as follows:
where
E is the energy
m is the mass
c is the speed of light (
)
Given the huge value of 
, we see that even a tiny amount of matter is able to release a huge amount of energy, when the whole mass is converted into energy. This is precisely what happens in nuclear reactions. For example, in the process of nuclear fusion (that occurs in the core of the stars), two light nuclei fuse together into a heavier nucleus. The mass of the final nucleus is lower than the total mass of the initial nuclei, so part of the mass has been converted into energy according to the equation above: this is why the amount of energy produced by stars is so big.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
Before slowing down, the car's speed is 25 m/s,
and its kinetic energy is ...
(1/2) (1,500 kg) (25 m/s)²
= (1/2) (1,500 kg) (625 m²/s²)
= 468,750 joules .
After slowing down, the car's speed is 15 m/s,
and its kinetic energy is ...
(1/2) (1,500 kg) (15 m/s)²
= (1/2) (1,500 kg) (225 m²/s²)
= 168,750 joules.
The car lost (468,750 - 168,750) = 300,000 joules of K.E.
The law of Conservation of Energy says:
That 300,000 joules had to go somewhere.
If it's a standard, gas-powered car, then the kinetic energy got
put into the brakes. The energy turned into heat, and the heat
was carried off in the air.
If it's a more modern electric or hybrid car, then the kinetic energy
spun the wheel motors, turning them temporarily into electrical
generators. The generators converted the kinetic energy into
electrical energy, which got put back into the car's batteries, and
could be used again. That's why electric cars use less gas.
Answer:
T2=336K
Explanation:
Clausius-Clapeyron equation is used to determine the vapour pressure at different temperatures:
where:
In(P2/P1) = ΔvapH/R(1/T1 - 1/T2)
p1 and p2 are the vapour pressures at temperatures
T1 and T2
ΔvapH = the enthalpy of vaporization of the liquid
R = the Universal Gas Constant
p1=p1, T1=307K
p2=3.50p1; T2=?
ΔvapH=37.51kJ/mol=37510J/mol
R=8.314J.K^-1moL^-1
In(3.50P1/P1)= (37510J/mol)/(8.314J.K^-1)*(1/307 - 1/T2)
P1 and P1 cancelled out:
In(3.50)=4511.667(T2 - 307/307T2)
1.253=14.696(T2 - 307/T2)
1.253=(14.696T2) - (14.696*307)/T2
1.253T2=14.696T2 - 4511.672
Therefore,
4511.672=14.696T2 - 1.253T2
4511.672=13.443T2
So therefore, T2=4511.672/13.443=335.61
Approximately, T2=336K
