Estimate the change in the equilibrium melting point of copper caused by a change in pressure of 10 kbar. The molar volume of co

pper is 8.0 x 10-6 m3 for the liquid, and 7.6 x 10-6 for the solid phase. The latent heat of fusion of copper is 13.05 kJ mol-1. The melting point is 1085°C.

Answer:

The change in the equilibrium melting point is 4.162 K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure = 10 kbar

Molar volume of copper $V=8.0\times10^{-6}\ m^3$

Volume of liquid $V=7.6\times10^{-6}\ m^3$

Latent heat of fusion $L= 13.05 kJ$

Melting point =1085°C

We need to calculate the change temperature

Using Clapeyron equation

$\dfrac{\Delta P}{\Delta T}=\dfrac{\Delta H}{T\Delta V}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1000\times10^{5}}{\Delta T}=\dfrac{13050}{(1085+273)\times(8.0-7.6)\times10^{-6}}$

$\Delta T=\dfrac{1000\times10^{-5}\times(1085+273)\times(8.0-7.6)\times10^{-6}}{13050}$

$\Delta T=4.162\ K$

Hence, The change in the equilibrium melting point is 4.162 K.

You are participating in a NASA traineeship, working with a group planning a new landing on Mars. Your supervisor has come up wi

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

$h=17005.8 km$

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the force experimented by a satellite of mass m orbiting Mars, which has mass $M=6.39\times10^{23} kg$ at a distance r will be:

$F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}$

where $G=6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2$ is the gravitational constant.

This force is the centripetal force the satellite experiments, so we can write:

$F=ma_{cp}=mr\omega^2=mr(\frac{2\pi}{T})^2=\frac{4\pi^2mr}{T^2}$

Putting all together:

$\frac{GMm}{r^2}=\frac{4\pi^2mr}{T^2}$

which means:

$r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{GM}{4\pi^2}T^2}$

Which for our values is:

$r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2)(6.39\times10^{23} kg)}{4\pi^2}(1.026\times24\times60\times60s)^2}=20395282m=20395.3km$

Since this distance is measured from the center of Mars, to have the height above the Martian surface we need to substract the radius of Mars R=3389.5 km , which leaves us with:

$h=r-R=20395.3km-3389.5 km=17005.8 km$

The magnetic field around the head has been measured to be approximately 3.00×10−8 gauss . Although the currents that cause this

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

$3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A$

Explanation:

B = Magnetic field = $3\times 10^{-8}\ G$

d = Diameter of loop = 16 cm

r = Radius = $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{16}{2}=8\ cm$

i = Current

$\mu_0$ = Vacuum permeability = $4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m$

The magnetic field of a loop is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0i}{2r}\\\Rightarrow i=\frac{B2r}{\mu_0}\\\Rightarrow i=\frac{3\times 10^{-8}\times 10^{-4}\times 2\times 0.08}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}}\\\Rightarrow i=3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A$

The current needed to produce such a field at the center of the loop is $3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A$

In an isolated system, the total heat given off by warmer substances equals the total heat energy gained by cooler substances. N

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The temperature of the cooler substance was close to the room temperature. Therefore, the system experienced less change

Explanation:

Generally, in a closed system containing two bodies at different temperatures, there is a flow of heat energy from the body at a higher temperature to the body at a lower temperature. The effect is more significant when there is a large temperature difference between the bodies. However, if the temperature difference is small or insignificant, the change will be less.

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can

gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
