Answer:
1.89mol
Explanation:
The entropy change during free expansion is express as
Where S is the entropy of the system,
n is the amount of mole
R is the gas constant = 8.314 and
V is the volume occupied at the initial and final stage
since the process is n adiabatic free expansion, the entropy of the system is constant. Hence we can re-write the equation as
where the and
and
Now if we substitute in values we arrive at
Answer:
See the attached image and the explanation below
Explanation:
We must draw a schematic of the described problem, after the sketch it is necessary to make a free body diagram, at the time before and after cutting the cord.
These free body diagrams can be seen in the attached image.
First we perform a sum of forces on the x & y axes before cutting the cord, to be able to find the T tension of the wire. (This analysis can be seen in the attached image).
In this way we get the T-wire tension equation, before cutting.
Now we make another free body diagram, for the moment when the wire is cut (see in the attached diagram).
It is important to clarify that when the cord is cut, the system will no longer be in statically, therefore newton's second law will be used for summation of forces which will be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
Finally with equations 1 and 2 we can find the K ratio.
