Answer:

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure P = 10⁵ N / m ²

change in volume Δ V = 16 - 12 = 4 m³

work done by gas against constant pressure

W = P  Δ V

Putting the values above

work done = 10⁵ x 4

W = 4 x 10⁵ J .

B ) Heat added Q = 254 x 10³ cals

= 254 x 4.2 x 10³ J

= 10.66 x 10⁵ J

According to first law of thermodynamics

Q = Δ E + W

Q is heat energy added , Δ E is increase in internal energy and W is work done by gas.

Putting the values in the equation above

10.66 x 10⁵ =  Δ E +4 x 10⁵

Δ E = 6.66 x 10⁵ J .

Two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. The graphs show the momentum of eac
madam [21]

Explanation :

The interaction between two objects is termed as the collision. The collision can be of two types i.e. elastic collision and inelastic collision.

In this case, two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. In an inelastic collision, the momentum before and after the collision remains the same but its kinetic energy gets lost.

After the collision, both the object sticks over each other and moves with one velocity.

Out of the given graph, the graph that shows a perfectly inelastic collision is attached. It shows that after the collision both the carts move with the same velocity.

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

A 4.0-mF capacitor initially charged to 50 V and a 6.0-mF capacitor charged to 30 V are connected to each other with the positiv
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<em>The final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC</em>

Explanation:

The initial charge on 4 mF capacitor  = 4 mf  x 50 V = 200 mC

The initial Charge on 6 mF capacitor  = 6 mf x 30 V =180 mC

Since the negative ends are joined together  the total charge on both capacity would be;

q = q_{1} -q_{2}

q = 200 - 180

q = 20 mC

In order to find the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor we have to find the combined voltage

q = (4 x V) + (6 x V)

20 = 10 V

V = 2 V

For the final charge on 6.0 mF;

q = CV

q = 6.0 mF x 2 V

q =  12 mC

Therefore the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

1) Charge chord resistance is 75 Ω

2) Charge chord resistance is 6.33 Ω

Explanation:

1) To answer the question, we note that the the formula voltage is found as follows;

V = IR

Therefore,

R = \frac{V}{I} =  \frac{120}{1.6} = 75  \, \Omega

2) Where the voltage, V = 19.5 V and the current, I = 3.33 A, we have;

Initial resistance R₁ = 19.5 V/(3.33 A) = 5.86 Ω

However, to reduce the current to 1.6 A, we have;

R_T = \frac{19.5}{1.6} = 12.1875 \ \Omega

Therefore, where the resistance is found by the sum of the total resistance we have;

R_T = R₁ + Charge chord resistance

∴ 12.1875 = 5.86 + Charge chord resistance

Hence, charge chord resistance = 6.33 Ω
