Answer:

If you hold the temperature of an ideal gas constant, what happens to its volume when you triple the pressure? For T fixed, P is proportional to 1/V or V is proportional to 1/P. Tripling P reduces V to 1/3. ... If T is constant, the speeds of the average speeds and kinetic energy of the atomic particles remain constant.

I hope this helps!

A 40 Watt lightbulb is on for 3 minutes. How many joules of work does it do?

ella [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Power (p)= 40 watt

time (t)= 3 minutes = 180 seconds

Energy (E)= ?

we know

P = E/t

40 = E / 180

E = 7200 Joules

Therefore it does 7200 joules of work.

hope it helps :)

Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in the attached figure. They "push off" and travel directly away from each other,

Tema [17]

By definition, the momentum is given by:
p = m * v
Where,
m = mass
v = speed.
On the other hand,
F = m * a
Where,
m = mass
a = acceleration:
For the boy we have:
p1 = m * v
p1 = (F / a) * v
p1 = ((710) / (9.81)) * (0.50)
p1 = 36.19 Kg * (m / s)
For the girl we have:
p2 = m * v
p2 = (F / a) * v
p2 = ((480) / (9.81)) * (v)
p2 = 48.93 * v Kg * (m / s)
Then, we have:
p1 + p2 = 0
36.19 + 48.93 * v = 0
Clearing v:
v = - (36.19) / (48.93)
v = -0.74 m / s (negative because the velocity is in the opposite direction of the boy's)
Answer:
the girl's velocity in m / s after they push off is -0.74 m / s

A vat of nitrogen at its boiling point (-196 degrees C) absorbs 384000 J of heat. How much mass of nitrogen burns off? (Unit = k

masya89 [10]

Answer:

1.92 kg of nitrogen.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Heat absorbed (Q) = 384000 J

Note: Heat of vaporisation (ΔHv) of nitrogen = 5600 J/mol

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of nitrogen that absorbed 384000 J.

This is illustrated below:

Q = mol·ΔHv

384000 = mole of N2 x 5600

Divide both side by 5600

Mole of N2 = 384000/5600

Mole of N2 = 68.57 moles

Next, we shall convert 68.57 moles of nitrogen, N2 to grams.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of N2 = 2 x 14 = 28 g/mol.

Mole of N2 = 68.57 moles.

Mass of N2 =..?

Mole = mass /molar mass

68.57 = mass of N2 /28

Cross multiply

Mass of N2 = 68.57 x 28

Mass of N2 = 1919.96 g

Finally, we shall convert 1919.96 g to kilograms.

This can be achieved as shown below:

1000g = 1 kg

Therefore,

1919.96 g = 1919.96/1000 = 1.92 kg.

Therefore, 1.92 kg of nitrogen were burned off.

alexira [117]

Answer:

The smallest film thickness is 117 nm.

Explanation:

Light interference on thin films can be constructive or destructive. Constructive interference is dependent on the film thickness and the refractive index of the medium.

For the first interference (surface nearest to viewer), the minimum thickness can be expressed as:

$2t_{min} = \frac{wavelenth}{2n}$
