kupik [55]

Answer:

1) the final temperature is T2 = 876.76°C

2) the final volume is V2 = 24.14 cm³

Explanation:

We can model the gas behaviour as an ideal gas, then

P*V=n*R*T

since the gas is rapidly compressed and the thermal conductivity of a gas is low a we can assume that there is an insignificant heat transfer in that time, therefore for adiabatic conditions:

P*V^k = constant = C, k= adiabatic coefficient for air = 1.4

then the work will be

W = ∫ P dV = ∫ C*V^(-k) dV = C*[((V2^(-k+1)-V1^(-k+1)]/( -k +1) = (P2*V2 - P1*V1)/(1-k)= nR(T2-T1)/(1-k) = (P1*V1/T1)*(T2-T1)/(1-k)

W = (P1*V1/T1)*(T2-T1)/(1-k)

T2 = (1-k)W* T1/(P1*V1) +T1

replacing values (W=-450 J since it is the work done by the gas to the piston)

T2 = (1-1.4)*(-450J) *308K/(101325 Pa*650*10^-6 m³) + 308 K= 1149.76 K = 876.76°C

the final volume is

TV^(k-1)= constant

therefore

T2/T1= (V2/V1)^(1-k)

V2 = V1* (T2/T1)^(1/(1-k)) = 650 cm³ * (1149.76K/308K)^(1/(1-1.4)) = 24.14 cm³

We would like to measure the density (p) of an ideal gas. We know the ideal gas law provides p= , where P represents pressure, R

Nostrana [21]

Answer: =

Explanation:

= P / (R * T) P- Pressure, R=287.058, T- temperature

From the given that

Sample mean(pressure) = 120300 Pa

Standard deviation (pressure) = 6600 Pa

Sample mean(temperature) = 340K

Standard deviation(temperature) = 8K

To calculate the Density;

Maximum pressure = Sample mean(pressure) + standard deviation (pressure) = 120300+6600 = 126900 Pa

Minimum pressure = Sample mean (pressure) - standard deviation (pressure)= 120300-6600 = 113700 Pa

Maximum temperature = Sample mean (temperature) + standard deviation (temperature) = 340+8 = 348K

Minimum temperature = Sample mean (temperature) - standerd deviation (temperature) = 340-8 = 332K

So now to calculate the density:

Maximum Density= Pressure (max)/(R*Temperature (min))= 126900/(287.058*332)= 1.331

Minimum density=Pressure(min)/(R*Temperature (max))= 113700/(287.058*348)= 1.138

Average density= (density (max)+ density (min))/2= (1.331+1.138)/2= 1.2345

A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w

german

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.
