Answer:

Given that

V2/V1= 0.25

And we know that in adiabatic process

TV^န-1= constant

T1/T2=( V1 /V2)^ န-1

So = ( 1/0.25)^ 0.66= 2.5

Also PV^န= constant

So P1/P2= (V2/V1)^န

= (1/0.25)^1.66 = 9.98

A. RMS speed is

Vrms= √ 3RT/M

But this is also

Vrms 2/Vrms1= (√T2/T1)

Vrms2=√2.5= 1.6vrms1

Lambda=V/4π√2πr²N

Lambda 2/lambda 1= V2/V1 = 0.25

So the mean free path can be inferred to be 0.25 times the first mean free path

C. Using

Eth= 3/2KT

So Eth2/Eth1= T2/T1

Eth2= 2.5Eth1

Using CV= 3/2R

Cvf= Cvi

So molar specific heat constant does not change

According to Lenz's law, an induced current in the direction depicted in the picture would be created when: a. An external downw

LenKa [72]

Answer:

C. An external downward field is created or an external downward field is removed

Explanation:

As we can see that from the attached figure that the induced current would be counter clockwise. So the field occur because of induced current i.e. out of page. This represent that the current is induced in order to rise the flux out of the direction of the page

Therefore because of the external field, the field out of page & flux would be reducing or the external upward field is eliminated

So option C is correct

Listed following are the names and mirror diameters for six of the world’s greatest reflecting telescopes used to gather visible

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope

Explanation:

How much light a telescope can collect depends on its diameter, since in a bigger area more photons will be collected.

Remember that in a circle the area is defined as:

$A = \pi r^{2}$ (1)

Where A is the area and r is its radius.

However, the radius can be determined by means of its diameter.

$d = 2r$

$r = \frac{d}{2}$ (1)

Where d is its diameter.

An example of this is when a person is collecting raindrops with a bucket and with a cup. Since the bucket has a bigger area than the cup, it will collect more raindrops by unit of time. In this scenario the raindrops represent the photons.

To determine the light collecting area of each telescope, equation 2 will be replaced in equation 1.

$A = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}$ (3)

Case for Large binocular telescope:

$A_{mirror1} = \pi (\frac{8.4m}{2})^{2}$

$A_{mirror1} = 55.41m$

For the second mirror will be the same value

$A = A_{mirror1}+A_{mirror2}$

$A = 55.41m+55.41m$

$A= 110.82m$

Case for Keck 1 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{10m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 78.53m$

Case for Hobby-Ebberly telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{9.2m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 66.47m$

Case for Subaru telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8.3m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 54.10m$

Case for Gemini North telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 50.26m$

Case for Magellan 2 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{6.5m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 33.18m$

Hence, they may be rank in the following way:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope.

How many pounds of meat does a cougar eat per day

Luba_88 [7]

A large male cougar living in the Cascade Mountains kills a deer or elk every 9 to 12 days, eating up to 20 pounds at a time and burying the rest for later.Except for females with young, cougars are lone hunters that wander between places frequented by their prey, covering as much as 15 miles in a single night.Cougars rely on short bursts of speed to ambush their prey. A cougar may stalk an animal for an hour or more

hope this helps in any way ! :)

Which is the correct answer?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

The work done by stretching or compressing a spring is given by E=1/2kx²

The potential energy is numerically equal to the work done.

This means that the higher the bigger the value of the extension, x, the higher the energy contained.

In this scenario the modulus of x is considered.

Among the given values of x the modulus of -5 is the largest.

thus it gives the highest value of energy.
