g Consider an ideal atomic gas in a cylinder. The upper part of the cylinder is a moveable piston of negligible weight. The heig

ht of the cylinder is 30 cm. The outside pressure is 105 Pa. The temperature of the gas is kept at 250 K throughout the experiment. The volume filled by the gas is 2.0 l. Now assume that solid cylindrical weight with a mass of 3 kg is dropped onto the piston from a height of 10 m. Cylinder and piston have the same diameter. Assume that the kinetic energy of the weight is completely converted into heat transferred into the gas cylinder. Calculate the change of entropy of the gas and of the environment.

A cylindrical weight with a mass of 3 kg is dropped onto the piston from a height of 10 m. The entropy of the gas is 1.18 J/K and the change in the entropy of the environment is -1.18 J/K.

A cylindrical weight with a mass (m) of 3 kg is dropped, that is, its initial velocity (u) is 0 m/s and travels 10 m (s). Assuming the acceleration (a) is that of gravity (9.8 m/s²). We can calculate the velocity (v) of the weight in the instant prior to the collision with the piston using the following kinematic equation.

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as = 2 (9.8 m/s^{2} ) (10m) \\\\v = 14 m/s

The object with a mass of 3 kg collides with the piston at 14 m/s, The kinetic energy (K) of the object at that moment is:

K = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} (3kg) (14m/s)^{2} = 294 J

The kinetic energy of the weight is completely converted into heat transferred into the gas cylinder. Thus, Q = 294 J.

Given all the process is at 250 K (T), we can calculate the change of entropy of the gas using the following expression.

\Delta S_{gas} = \frac{Q}{T} = \frac{294 J}{250K} = 1.18 J/K

The change in the entropy of the environment, has the same value but opposite sign than the change in the entropy of the gas. Thus, \Delta S_{env} = -1.18 J/K

A cylindrical weight with a mass of 3 kg is dropped onto the piston from a height of 10 m. The entropy of the gas is 1.18 J/K and the change in the entropy of the environment is -1.18 J/K.

Why is the Universal Law of Gravitation is a scientific Law and not a theory?
scoundrel [369]
This is a law because it describes the force but makes not attempt to explain how the force works. A theory is an explanation of a natural phenomenon. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity explains how gravity works by describing gravity as the effect of curvature of four dimensional spacetime.

From this list, select the element that forms π bonds most readily. from this list, select the element that forms bonds most rea
Finger [1]

Nonmetals which are located in the second row form pi bonds more easily than the elements situated in the third row and below. Actually there are no compounds or molecules known that forms covalent bonds to the noble gas Ne and Ar. Hence the other second row element which is Carbon, is the element that forms pi bonds most readily.

Which of the following produces a physical change in the shape of an object?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:Any change that occurs without altering the chemical composition of a substance is a physical change. Physical changes can include changing the color, shape, state of matter, or volume of a substance. It is crucial to remember that physical changes never alter the chemical makeup.
