A greyhound has a mass of 35 kg and can run at a speed of 20 m/s. What is the kinetic energy that a greyhound can achieve

Hi there!

Recall the equation for kinetic energy:

\large\boxed{KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2}

KE = Kinetic energy (J)

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

Plug in the given values:

KE = \frac{1}{2}(35)(20^2) = \boxed{7000 J}

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30
beks73 [17]

Answer:

T=575.16K

Explanation:

To solve the problem we proceed to use the 1 law of diffusion of flow,

Here,

J=-D\frac{\Delta C}{\Delta x}

\Delta C is the rate in concentration

\Delta xis the rate in thickness

D is the diffusion coefficient, where,

D= D_0 exp(\frac{Q_d}{RT})

Replacing D in the first law,

J=-(D_0 exp(\frac{-Q_D}{RT}))\frac{\Delta }{\Delta x}

clearing T,

T=\frac{Q_d}{R*ln(\frac{J*\Delta x}{D_0*\Delta C})}

Replacing our values

T=-\frac{80000}{8.31*ln(\frac{(6.2*10^{-7})(-15*10^{-3})}{(1.43*10^{-9})(0.65-0.30)})}

T=-\frac{80000}{-138.09}

T=575.16K

By calculating its wavelength (in nm), show that the second line in the Lyman series is UV radiation.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

 λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range,

Explanation:

Bohr's atomic model for the hydrogen atom states that the energy is

           E = - 13.606 / n²

where 13.606 eV   is the ground state energy and n is an integer

an atom transition is the jump of an electron from an initial state to a final state of lesser emergy

            ΔE = 13.606 (1 / n_{f}^{2} - 1 / n_{i}^{2})

the so-called Lyman series occurs when the final state nf = 1, so the second line occurs when ni = 3, let's calculate the energy of the emitted photon

            DE = 13.606 (1/1 - 1/3²)

            DE = 12.094 eV

let's reduce the energy to the SI system

            DE = 12.094 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 ev) = 10.35 10⁻¹⁹ J

let's find the wavelength is this energy, let's use Planck's equation to find the frequency

            E = h f

             f = E / h

            f = 19.35 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

            f = 2.9186 10¹⁵ Hz

now we can look up the wavelength

           c = λ f

           λ = c / f

           λ = 3 10⁸ / 2.9186 10¹⁵

           λ = 1.0278  10⁻⁷ m

let's reduce to nm

            λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range, which occurs for wavelengths less than 400 nm.

Energy that cannot be used to do useful work is referred to as Select one: a. potential energy. b. entropy. c. kinetic energy. d
topjm [15]

In thermodynamics, entropy (symbolized as S) is a physical magnitude for a thermodynamic system in equilibrium. It measures the number of microstates compatible with the equilibrium macrostate, it can also be said that it is the reason for an increase between internal energy versus an increase in system temperature.

The universe tends to distribute energy evenly; that is, to maximize entropy. Intuitively, entropy is a physical quantity that, by calculation, allows us to determine the part of energy per unit of temperature that cannot be used to produce work.

Therefore the correct answer is B.

An air bubble has a volume of 2.0 cm3 when it is released by a submarine 100 m below the surface of a freshwater lake. What is t
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

21.35 cm^3

Explanation:

let the volume at the surface of fresh water is V.

The volume at a depth of 100 m is V' = 2 cm^3

temperature remains constant.

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m^3

Pressure at the surface of fresh water is atmospheric pressure,

P = Po = 1.013 x 10^5 N/m^2

The pressure at depth 100 m is P' = Po + hdg

P' = 1.013 \times 10^{5}+ 100 \times 1000 \times 9.8

P' = 10.813 x 10^5 N/m^2

Use the Boyle's law

P V = P' V'

1.013 \times 10^{5}\times V = 10.813 \times 10^{5}\times 2

V = 21.35 cm^3

Thus, the volume of air bubble at the surface of fresh water is 21.35 cm^3.
