Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis
Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

1)

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

2)

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

3)

Initial  pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) /  0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4)

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

A proton is placed in an electric field of intensity 700 N/C. What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of this p
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Acceleration of proton will be a=0.67\times 10^{11}m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given a proton is placed in an electric field of intensity of 700 N/C

So electric field E = 700 N/C

Mass of proton m=1.67\times 10^{-27}kg

Charge on proton e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C

So electric force on the proton F=qE=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 700=1.120\times 10^{-16}N

This force will be equal to force due to acceleration of the proton

According to newton's law force is given by F = ma

So 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times a=1.120\times 10^{-16}

a=0.67\times 10^{11}m/sec^2

So acceleration of proton will be a=0.67\times 10^{11}m/sec^2

The bar graph shows the population of male and female deer in a forest, measured in 10-year intervals. According to the graph, w
saul85 [17]

Answer: option D. the ratio of the population of male deer is not constant.


Explanation:


The bar graph permits to compare the results for two different populations: male and female deer in a very easy visual way.


These features are remarkable:


  • The polulation of male deer (blue bars) decrease from 1961 to 1971, then increase in the next 10 year, decrease in the next decade, and increase for the next two decades. So, its trend is erratic, with ups and downs.

        This discards the option A, which states that the population of male deer increases each decade from 1961 to 2011.


  • The population of female deer (purple or brown bars) decreases every decade.

        This discards the option B. which states that when the polulation of male deer increases, the poluplation of female deer also increases.


  • The populations never are equal, hence this discards the option C.

  • Since, one popultion increases and decreases, while the other population only decreases, you conclude that the ratio of the population of male deer to female deer is not constant, which is the option D.
