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

HURRY Which change is an example of transforming potential energy to kinetic energy

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C. changing nuclear energy to radiant energy

Explanation:

Nuclear energy takes atoms in their potential state, split them (fission) or fuse them (fusion) creating chain reactions of radiant energy. Most nuclear electrical power plants use fission, radiant energy heats water making steam to spin turbines.

Or think of the atom bomb. Definitely potential energy until the fuse starts detonation and chain reactions. The radiant kinetic energy and shock waves were horrendous.

What is the transition from a gas to a liquid?

postnew [5]

The transition from gas to liquid is called condensation. An example would be water droplets forming on an ice cold glass placed in room temperature.

Jin knows that the initial internal energy of a closed system is 78 J and the final internal energy is 180 J. He also knows that

lawyer [7]

As we know by the first law of thermodynamics

$Q = \Delta U + W$

here we know that

Q = heat given to the system

$\Delta U = U_f - U_i$

W = work done by the system

now here we can say

$\Delta U = 180 - 78 = 102 J$

$W = 64 J$

now we can say that heat will be given as

$Q = 64 + 102 = 166 J$

now here we can say that Jin does the error in his first step while calculation of change in internal energy as he had to subtract it while he added the two energy

So best describe Jin's Error is

<em>B )For step 1, he should have subtracted 78 J from 180 J to find the change in internal energy. </em>

if you run around a circle at 4.5 m/s and the circle has a radius of 7.7 m, what is your centripetal acceleration?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration:

Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.

Centripetal means towards the center.

Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.

An acceleration is a change in velocity.

Formula for Centripetal acceleration:

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Given here,

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

radius = 7.7 m

To Find :

$a_{c} = ?$

Solution:

We have,

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Substituting given value in it we get

$a_{c} =\frac{(4.5)^{2}}{7.7} \\\\a_{c} =\frac{20.25}{7.7}\\\\a_{c} =2.629\ m/s^{2} \\\\\therefore a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2$

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$
