Answer: The work done in J is 324

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of work done for an isothermal process is given by the equation:

W=-P\Delta V=-P(V_2-V_1)

W = amount of work done = ?

P = pressure = 732 torr = 0.96 atm    (760torr =1atm)

V_1 = initial volume = 5.68 L

V_2 = final volume = 2.35  L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

W=-0.96atm\times (2.35-5.68)L=3.20L.atm

To convert this into joules, we use the conversion factor:

1L.atm=101.33J

So, 3.20L.atm=3.20\times 101.3=324J

The positive sign indicates the work is done on the system

Hence, the work done for the given process is 324 J

If Katie swims from one end of the pool, to the other side, and then swims back to her original spot, her average velocity is ha
Crank

Answer:

false.

Explanation:

Ok, we define average velocity as the sum of the initial and final velocity divided by two.

Remember that the velocity is a vector, so it has a direction.

Then when she goes from the 1st end to the other, the velocity is positive

When she goes back, the velocity is negative

if both cases the magnitude of the velocity, the speed, is the same, then the average velocity is:

AV = (V + (-V))/2  = 0

While the average speed is the quotient between the total distance traveled (twice the length of the pool) and the time it took to travel it.

So we already can see that the average velocity will not be equal to half of the average speed.

The statement is false

Consider a space shuttle which has a mass of about 1.0 x 105 kg and circles the Earth at an altitude of about 200.0 km. Calculat
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

1.6675×10^-16N

Explanation:

The force of gravity that the space shuttle experiences is expressed as;

g = GM/r²

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass = 1.0 x 10^5 kg

r is the altitude = 200km = 200,000m

Substitute into the formula

g = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.0×10^5/(2×10^5)²

g = 6.67×10^-6/4×10^10

g = 1.6675×10^{-6-10}

g = 1.6675×10^-16N

Hence the force of gravity experienced by the shuttle is 1.6675×10^-16N

Ron fills a beaker with glycerin (n = 1.473) to a depth of 5.0 cm. if he looks straight down through the glycerin surface, he wi
Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}

here we know that

\mu_1 = 1.473

h_o = 5 cm

\mu_2 = 1

now by above formula

\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}

h_i = 3.39 cm

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

An 888.0 kg elevator is moving downward with a velocity of 0.800 m/s. It decelerates uniformly and comes to a stop in a distance
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N

Explanation:

Mass = 888 kg

Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8 \frac{m}{sec}

Final velocity ( V ) = 0

Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m

Now use third law of motion V^{2} = u^{2} - 2 a s

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 0 = 0.8^{2} - 2 × a ×0.2667

⇒ a = 1.2 \frac{m}{sec^{2} }

This is the deceleration of the box.

Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a

Put all the values in above formula we get,

T = 888 × 1.2

T = 1065.6 N

This is the value of tension on the cable.
