A container of volume 0.6 m^3 contains 5.3 mol of argon gas at 24°C. Assuming argon behaves as an ideal gas, find the total inte
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

the internal energy of the gas is 433089.52 J

Explanation:

let n be the number of moles, R be the gas constant and T be the temperature in Kelvins.

the internal energy of an ideal gas is given by:

Ein = 3/2×n×R×T

     = 3/2×(5.3)×(8.31451)×(24 + 273)

     = 433089.52 J

Therefore, the internal energy of this gas is 433089.52 J.

A teacher sets up a stand carrying a convex lens of focal length 15 cm at 20.5 cm mark on the optical bench. She asks the studen
Brums [2.3K]
We get the clearest image if there is no magnification. When we have no magnification the image and real object have the same size.
If we look at the diagram that I  attached we can see that:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i}{d_0}
Two triangles that I marked are similar and from this we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f}
The image and the object must have the same height so we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f};h_i=h_0\\
1=\frac{d_i-f}{f}\\
d_i=2f
This tells how far the screen should be from the lens. 
The position of the screen on the optical bench is:
S=20.5cm+2f=20.5+2\cdot 15cm=50.5cm

Two vertical springs have identical spring constants, but one has a ball of mass m hanging from it and the other has a ball of m
OverLord2011 [107]

To solve this problem we will start from the definition of energy of a spring mass system based on the simple harmonic movement. Using the relationship of equality and balance between both systems we will find the relationship of the amplitudes in terms of angular velocities. Using the equivalent expressions of angular velocity we will find the final ratio. This is,

The energy of the system having mass m is,

E_m = \frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2

The energy of the system having mass 2m is,

E_{2m} = \frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2

For the two expressions mentioned above remember that the variables mean

m = mass

\omega =Angular velocity

A = Amplitude

The energies of the two system are same then,

E_m = E_{2m}

\frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2=\frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2

\frac{A_1^2}{A_2^2} = \frac{2\omega_2^2}{\omega_1^2}

Remember that

k = m\omega^2 \rightarrow \omega^2 = k/m

Replacing this value we have then

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{\frac{2(k/m_2)}{(k/m_1)^2}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_1}}

But the value of the mass was previously given, then

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m}{2m}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = 1

Therefore the ratio of the oscillation amplitudes it is the same.

A steel ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 cm forms an image of an object that has been placed 1.1 cm away from the bearing’s sur
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

The image is virtual

The image is upright

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

Kindly check the diagram in the attached image below.

On a cold winter day when the temperature is −20∘C, what amount of heat is needed to warm to body temperature (37 ∘C) the 0.50 L
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

75.6J

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem we must use the first law of thermodynamics that states that the heat required to heat the air is the difference between the energy levels of the air when it enters and when it leaves the body,

Given the above we have the following equation.

Q=(m)(h2)-(m)(h1)

where

m=mass=1.3×10−3kg.

h2= entalpy at 37C

h1= entalpy at -20C

Q=m(h2-h1)

remember that the enthalpy differences for the air can approximate the specific heat multiplied by the temperature difference

Q=mCp(T2-T1)

Cp= specific heat of air = 1020 J/kg⋅K

Q=(1.3×10−3)(1020)(37-(-20))=75.6J
