An ideal gas at temperature t0 is slowly compressed at constant pressure of 2 atm from a volume of 10 liters to a volume of 2 li

ters. then the volume of the gas is held constant while heat is added, raising the gas temperature back to t0. calculate the work done on the gas. 1 atm = 1.0×105 pascals and 1 liter = 0.001 m3 .

<span>Answer: 1600 J

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) ideal gas: ⇒ pV = nRT and work = ∫ pdV
b) slowly compressed ⇒ constant temperature and not heat exchange
c) pressure: p =  2 atm
d) intitial volume: Vi = 10 liters
e) final volumen: Vf = 2 liters.
f) then the volume of the gas is held constant ⇒ not work in this stage.
g) calculate the work done on the gas: W = ?

2) Equation

W = ∫pdV

3) Solution:

Since p = constant,  W = p ∫dV = p ΔV = p (Vf - Vi)

p = 2 atm × 1.0 ×10⁵ Pa / atm = 200.000 Pa

Vi = 10 liter ×  0.001 m³ ./ liter = 0.01 m³

Vf = 2 liter × 0.001 m³ / liter = 0.002 m³

W = 200.000 Pa × (0.002 m³ - 0.01m³) = - 1.600 J.

The negative sign means the work is done over the system.

That is all the work in the system because at the second stage the volume is held constant.

The bird is held in level flight due to the force exerted on it by the air as the bird beats its wings. What is the maximum valu
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

 maximumforce is F = mg

Explanation:

For this case we must use Newton's second law,

     Σ F = m a

bold indicate vectors, so we will write it in its components x and y

 X axis

       Fₓ = maₓ

 Axis y

      Fy - W = m aa_{y}

Now let's examine our case, with indicate that the bird is level, the force of the wings can have a measured angle with respect to the x axis, where the vertical component is responsible for the lift, let's use trigonometry to find the components

      Cos θ = Fₓ / F

      Fₓ = F cos θ

      sin θ = Fy / F

      Fy = F sin θ

Let's replace and calculate

      F sin θ -w = m a

 

As the bird indicates that leveling at the same height, so the vertical acceleration is zero (ay = 0)

       F sin θ = w = mg

The maximum value of this equation occurs when the sin=1, in this case

      F = mg

Tom and his little sister are enjoying an afternoon at the ice rink. they playfully place their hands together and push against
Westkost [7]
Newton's third law says:
"<span>For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. ".

So, the force that Tom does on the sister is equal to force the sister applies on Tom:
</span>F_t = F_s
<span>where the label "t" means "on Tom", while the label "s" means "on the sister".

From Newton's second law, we also know
</span>F=ma
where m is the mass and a the acceleration. <span>so we can rewrite the first equation as
</span>m_t a_t = m_s a_s
<span>And find Tom's acceleration:
</span>a_t =  \frac{m_s}{m_t} a_s =  \frac{15 kg}{61 kg} (2.1 m/s^2)  =0.52 m/s^2<span>

Two roads intersect at right angles, one going north-south, the other east-west. an observer stands on the road 60 meters south
Sloan [31]

observer is standing at distance d = 60 m south from the intersection

cyclist is travelling at speed v = 10 m/s

now after t = 8 s its displacement from intersection is given by

x = 10*8 = 80 m

so the position of cyclist makes an angle with the observer

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{80}{60} = 53 degree

now the component of velocity of cyclist along the line joining its position with the observer is given as

v = v_o cos\phi

here

\phi = 90 -\theta

\phi = 90 - 53 = 37 degree

v = 10 cos37 = 8 m/s

so at this instant cyclist is moving away with speed 8 m/s
