Answer:
a. 273 K b. 90.1 K c. 5.26 atm d. 0.33 atm
Explanation:
For isothermal expansion PV = constant
So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ where P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm (standard pressure), V₁ = initial volume of gas, P₂ = final pressure of gas and V₂ = final volume of gas,
So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂
Since V₂/V₁ = 0.19,
P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂
P₂ = 1 atm (1/0.19)
P₂ = 5.26 atm
For an adiabatic expansion, PVⁿ = constant where n = ratio of molar heat capacities = 5/3 for monoatomic gas
So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ where P₂ = initial pressure of gas = 5.26 atm, V₂ = initial volume of gas, P₃ = final pressure of gas and V₃ = final volume of gas,
So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ
P₃ = P₂V₂ⁿ/V₃ⁿ
P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ
Since V₃ = V₁ ,V₂/V₃ = V₂/V₁ = 0.19
1/0.19,
P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ
P₃ = 5.26 atm (0.19)⁽⁵/³⁾
P₃ = 5.26 atm × 0.0628
P₃ = 0.33 atm
Using the ideal gas equation
P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄ where P₃ = pressure after adiabatic expansion = 0.33 atm , V₃ = volume after adiabatic expansion, T₃ = temperature after adiabatic expansion P₄ = initial pressure of gas = P₁ = 1 atm , V₄ = initial volume of gas = V₁ and T₄ = initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 273 K (standard temperature)
P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄
T₃ = P₃V₃T₄/P₄V₄
T₃ = (P₃/P₄)(V₃/V₄)T₂
Since V₃ = V₄ = V₁ and P₄ = P₁
V₃/V₄ = 1 and P₃/P₄ = P₃/P₁
T₃ = (P₃/P₁)(V₃/V₄)T₂
T₃ = (0.33 atm/1 atm)(1)273 K
T₃ = 90.1 K
So,
a. The highest temperature attained by the gas is T₁ = 273 K
b. The lowest temperature attained by the gas = T₃ = 90.1 K
c. The highest pressure attained by the gas is P₂ = 5.26 atm
d. The lowest pressure attained by the gas is P₃ = 0.33 atm

The mass of the object, m = 5 kg
The position vector is, [tex]r=20t^4i+12t^3j[/tex]
Velocity, [tex]v=\dfrac{dr}{dt}=80t^3i+36t^2j[/tex]
Acceleration, [tex]a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}=240t^2i+72tj[/tex]
Newton's second law of motion is given as follows:
F = ma
Put all the values,
[tex]F=5(240t^2i+72tj)\ N[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
What does a model of a light wave tell us about
brightness and color?
Answer:
A wave model of light is useful for explaining brightness,color, and the frequency-dependent bending of light at a surface between media. However, because light can travel through space, it cannot be a matter wave, like sound or water waves.
To a man running east at the rate of 3m/s vain appears to fall vertically with a speed of 4m/s. Find the actual speed and direction of rain...
Answer:
The actual speed of the rain is 5 m/s and its direction is -53.13°
Explanation:
The actual speed of the rain V = speed of man, v + speed of rain relative to man, v'.
V = v + v'
We add these vectorially.
Since the man's speed is 3 m/s east, in the positive x - direction, we have v = 3i and the rain's speed is falling vertically at 4 m/s, in the negative y- direction, we have v' = -4j
So, V = v + v'
V = 3i + (-4j)
V = 3i - 4j
So, the magnitude of V which is its speed is V = √(3² + (-4)²) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5 m/s
The direction of V, Ф = tan⁻¹(vertical component/horizontal component) = tan⁻¹(-4/3) = tan⁻¹(-4/3) = tan⁻¹(-1.333) = -53.13°
So, the actual speed of the rain is 5 m/s and its direction is -53.13°
In addition to acceleration, what else will be a maximum at the amplitude for SHM?
A. Potential energy
B. Kinetic energy
C. Nuclear energy
D. Chemical energy

A particle moves along a straight line with equation of motion s = f(t), where s is measured in meters and t in seconds. Find the velocity and speed (in m/s) when t = 5. f(t) = 18 + 48/t + 1
Answer:
The velocity of the particle = -1.92 m/s
The speed of the particle = 5.72 m/s
Explanation:
Given equation of motion;
[tex]f(t) = 18 \ + \ \frac{48}{t} \ + \ 1[/tex]
Velocity is defined as the change in displacement with time.
[tex]V = \frac{df(t)}{dt} = -\frac{48}{t^2} \\\\at \ t = 5 \ s\\\\V = -\frac{48}{5^2} = \frac{-48}{25} = - 1.92 \ m/s[/tex]
The distance traveled by the particle in 5 s:
[tex]s = f(5) = 18 + \frac{48}{5} + 1\\\\s= 28.6 \ m[/tex]
The speed of the particle when t = 5s
[tex]Speed = \frac{28.6}{5} = 5.72 \ m/s[/tex]

If distance between two charges increased by 2 times then force
Explanation:
The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.
A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is transformed into elastic potential energy of the bending board; if the board bends far enough, it breaks. Applying a force to the center of a particular pine board deflects the center of the board by a distance that increases in proportion to the force. Ultimately the board breaks at an applied force of 870 N and a deflection of 1.4 cm.
a. To break the board with a blow from the hand, how fast must the hand be moving? Use 0.50 kg for the mass of the hand.
b. If the hand is moving this fast and comes to rest in a distance of 1.2 cm, what is the average force on the hand?
Answer:
A. The hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand = 1025 N
Explanation:
A.To determine the speed the hand must move with to break the board, the force workdone in breaking the board is found first.
Workdone = force × distance
Minimum force required = 870 N;
Distance moved by board/Deflection in order to break = 1.4 cm = 0.014 M
Workd done = 870 N × 0.014 m = 12.18 Nm or 12.18 J
This work done = Kinetic energy of the hand
Kinetic energy = mv²/2 ; where m is mass and v is velocity
Mass of hand = 0.50 Kg, velocity = ?, K.E. = 12.18 J
v² = 2 KE/m
v = √2KE/m
v = √(2 × 12.18/0.50)
v = 6.98 m/s
Therefore, the hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand
This can be determined using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as to find acceleration, since force = mass × acceleration
From the equation of motion, a = v² - u²/2s
At rest, v = 0, u = 6.98, s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m
a = 0² - 6.98²/ 2 × 0.012
a = -2030 m/s²
Force = 2030 m/s² × 0. 50 kg = 1015 N
Therefore, Average force on the hand = 1025 N

An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 8.85-V battery and charges up. The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery, and the spacing between the capacitor plates is doubled. As a result of this change, what is the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor
Answer:
The new voltage is 17.7 V.
Explanation:
Voltage, V = 8.85 V
The spacing is doubled.
When it is disconnected, the charge remains same,
q = C V ..... (1)
where, C is the capacitance, V is the voltage.
The capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance between the two plates.
So, when the spacing is doubled, the capacitance is halved.
Let the new voltage is V'.
C V = C' V'
C x 8.85 = C/2 x V'
V' = 17.7 V

calculate the work function that requires a 455 nm photon to eject an electron of a value 0.73 eV
Answer:
W = 2 eV
Explanation:
Given that,
The wavelength of a photon = 455 nm
The kinetic energy of a photon, K = 0.73 eV
We need to find the work function of the electron. It can be solved using Einstein's equation such that,
[tex]W=E-K[/tex]
E is the energy of the photon
So,
[tex]W=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}-K\\\\W=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{455\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}-0.73\\\\W= 2.73\ eV-0.73\ eV\\\\W=2\ eV[/tex]
So, the work function of the metal is 2 eV.
help plzzzzzzzzzzzz ?
Explanation:
1. First, let's find the total resistance of the circuit. We begin by combining [tex]R_{4}[/tex], [tex]R_{5}[/tex] and [tex]R_{6}[/tex]:
[tex]R_{456}=R_{4} + \dfrac{R_{5}R_{6}}{R_{5} + R_{6}}[/tex]
[tex]= 6\:Ω + \dfrac{(3\:Ω)(5\:Ω)}{3\:Ω+5\:Ω} = 7.9\:Ω[/tex]
Now time to combine [tex]R_{2}[/tex] and [tex]R_{3}[/tex] and they are connected in series so
[tex]R_{23} =R_{2} + R_{3} = 17\:Ω[/tex]
Note that [tex]R_{23}[/tex] and [tex]R_{456}[/tex] are connected in parallel so
[tex]R_{23456} = \dfrac{R_{23}R_{456}}{R_{23}+R_{456}}=5.4\:Ω[/tex]
Finally, [tex]R_{23456}[/tex] is connected in series with [tex]R_{1}[/tex] so the total resistance [tex]R_{T}[/tex] is
[tex]R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{23456} = 10\:Ω + 5.4\:Ω = 15.4\:Ω[/tex]
2. The total current in the circuit is
[tex]I_{T} = \dfrac{V}{R_{T}} = \dfrac{20\:V}{15.4\:Ω} = 1.3\:A[/tex]
3. The voltage drop across [tex]R_{1},\:V_{1}[/tex] is
[tex]V_{1} = I_{T}R_{1} = (1.3\:A)(10\:Ω) = 13\:V[/tex]
4. We can see that [tex]I_{T} = I_{1} + I_{2}[/tex]. To solve for [tex]I_{1}[/tex], we need [tex]V_{23}[/tex], which is just [tex]V_{T} - V_{1} = 20\:V - 13\:V = 7\:V[/tex] , which gives us
[tex]I_{1} = \dfrac{V_{23}}{R_{23}} = \dfrac{7\:V}{17\:Ω} = 0.4\:A[/tex]
5. From #2 & #4, [tex]I_{2} = 1.3\:A - 0.4\:A = 0.9\:A[/tex] and we also know that the voltage drop across [tex]R_{456}[/tex] is 7 V, the same as that of [tex]R_{23}[/tex]. The voltage drop across [tex]R_{4}[/tex] is
[tex]V_{4} = I_{2}R_{4} =(0.9\:A)(6\:Ω) = 5.4\:V[/tex]
This means that the voltage drop across [tex]R_{6}[/tex] is 7 V - 5.4 V = 1.6 V. Knowing this, the current through [tex]R_{6}[/tex] is
[tex]I_{6} = \dfrac{1.6\:V}{5\:Ω} = 0.3\:A[/tex]
Alice's friends Bob and Charlie are having a race to a distant star 10 light years away. Alice is the race official who stays on Earth, and her friend Darien is stationed on the star where the race ends. Bob is in a rocket that can travel at 0.7c; whereas Charlie's rocket can reach a speed of 0.866c. Bob and Charlie start at the same time. Draw space- diagrams from each perspective.
Required:
Estimate how long it takes Bob and Charlie to finish the race from each perspective.
Solution :
The distance between the starting point and the end point, [tex]L_0[/tex] = 10 light years
But due to the relativistic motion of Bob and Charlie, the distance will be reduced following the Lorentz contraction. The contracted length will be different since they are moving with different speeds.
For Bob,
Speed of Bob's rocket with respect to Alice, [tex]L_b = 0.7 \ c[/tex]
So the distance appeared to Bob due to the length contraction,
[tex]$L_b=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{V_b^2}{c^2}$[/tex]
[tex]$L_b=10\times \sqrt{1-0.49} \ Ly$[/tex]
[tex]$=7.1 \ Ly$[/tex]
Therefore, the time required to finish the race by Bob is
[tex]$t_b = \frac{L_b}{V_b}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{7.1 \ c}{0.7 \ c}$[/tex]
= 10.143 year
For Charlie,
Speed of Charlie's rocket with respect to Alice, [tex]L_c = 0.866 \ c[/tex]
So the distance appeared to Charlie due to the length contraction,
[tex]$L_b=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{V_c^2}{c^2}$[/tex]
[tex]$L_b=10\times \sqrt{1-0.75} \ Ly$[/tex]
[tex]$=5 \ Ly$[/tex]
The time required to finish the race by Charlie is
[tex]$t_b = \frac{L_c}{V_c}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{5 \ c}{0.866 \ c}$[/tex]
= 5.77 year
Part A What will be the equilibrium temperature when a 227 g block of copper at 283 °C is placed in a 155 g aluminum calorimeter cup containing 844 g of water at 14.6°C?
Answer:
T = 20.84°C
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of energy:
Heat Lost by Copper Block = Heat Gained by Aluminum Calorimeter + Heat Gained by Water
[tex]m_cC_c\Delta T_c = m_wC_w\Delta T_w + m_aC_a\Delta T_a[/tex]
where,
[tex]m_c[/tex] = mass of copper = 227 g
[tex]m_w[/tex] = mass of water = 844 g
[tex]m_a[/tex] = mass of aluminum = 155 g
[tex]C_c[/tex] = specific heat capacity of calorimeter = 385 J/kg.°C
[tex]C_w[/tex] = specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg.°C
[tex]C_a[/tex] = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 890 J/kg.°C
[tex]\Delta T_c[/tex] = change in temperature of copper = 283°C - T
[tex]\Delta T_w[/tex] = change in temperature of water = T - 14.6°C
[tex]\Delta T_a[/tex] = change in temperature of aluminum = T - 14.6°C
T = equilibrium temperature = ?
Therefore,
[tex](227\ g)(385\ J/kg.^oC)(283^oC-T)=(844\ g)(4200\ J/kg.^oC)(T-14.6^oC)+(155\ g)(890\ J/kg.^oC)(T-14.6^oC)\\\\24732785\ J - (87395\ J/^oC) T = (3544800\ J/^oC) T - 51754080\ J+ (137950\ J/^oC) T-2014070\ J\\\\24732785\ J +51754080\ J+2014070\ J = (3544800\ J/^oC) T+(137950\ J/^oC+(87395\ J/^oC) T\\\\78560935\ J = (3770145\ J/^oC) T\\\\T = \frac{78560935\ J}{3770145\ J/^oC}[/tex]
T = 20.84°C

When you release some of the paint from a spray paint can and the can remains at the same temperature, which gas law does this represent?
Answer:
Boyle's law.
Explanation:
Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist and is famously referred to as the first modern chemist. He was born on the 25th of January, 1627 in Lismore, Ireland and died on the 31st, December 1691, London, United Kingdom.
Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.
Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;
[tex] PV = K[/tex]
[tex] P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2} [/tex]
Where;
P1 is the original pressure.
P2 is the final pressure.
V1 is the original volume.
V2 is the final volume.
Hence, when you release some of the paint from a spray paint can by applying an amount of pressure and the can remains at the same temperature, the gas law which this represent is Boyle's law.

A 2.7 kg mass is connected to a spring (k=159 N/m) and is sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface. The mass is given an initial displacement of +19 cm and released with an initial velocity of -13 cm/s. Determine the acceleration of the spring at t=3.4 seconds.
Answer:
The acceleration of the spring at [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] is -29339.947 centimeters per square second.
Explanation:
The mass-spring system experiments a Simple Harmonic Motion, whose kinematic expression is the following:
[tex]x(t) = A\cdot \cos \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t + \phi\right)[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]x(t)[/tex] - Position, in centimeters.
[tex]A[/tex] - Amplitude, in centimeters.
[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, in newtons per meter.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.
[tex]\phi[/tex] - Phase, in radians.
By Differential Calculus, we derive expression for the velocity and acceleration of the mass-spring system:
[tex]v(t) = -\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot A\cdot \sin \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t +\phi\right)[/tex] (2)
[tex]a(t) = -\frac{k\cdot A}{m}\cdot \cos \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t +\phi\right)[/tex] (3)
Where [tex]v(t)[/tex] and [tex]a(t)[/tex] are the velocity and acceleration of the system, in centimeters per second and centimeters per square second, respectively.
If we know [tex]m = 2.7\,kg[/tex], [tex]k = 159\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]t = 0\,s[/tex], [tex]x(t) = 19\,cm[/tex] and [tex]v(t) = -13\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex], then we have the following system of nonlinear equations:
[tex]A \cdot \cos \phi = 19[/tex] (1)
[tex]-7.674\cdot A \cdot \sin \phi = - 13[/tex] (2)
If we divide (2) by (1):
[tex]-7.674\cdot \tan \phi = -0.684[/tex]
[tex]\tan \phi = 0.089[/tex]
[tex]\phi = \tan^{-1} 0.089[/tex]
[tex]\phi \approx 0.028\,rad[/tex]
By (1), we get the value of the amplitude:
[tex]A = \frac{19}{\cos \phi}[/tex]
[tex]A = 19.075\,cm[/tex]
If we know that [tex]A = 19.075\,cm[/tex], [tex]k = 159\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]m = 2.7\,kg[/tex], [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] and [tex]\phi \approx 0.028\,rad[/tex], then the acceleration of the spring is:
[tex]a(t) = -29339.947\,\frac{cm}{s^{2}}[/tex]
The acceleration of the spring at [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] is -29339.947 centimeters per square second.
You are packing for a trip to another star, and on your journey you will be traveling at a speed of 0.99c. Can you sleep in a smaller cabin than usual, because you will be shorter when you lie down? Explain your answer.
Explanation:
No. From your own reference frame, nothing will change. Everything will look the same to you even if you're traveling at 99% speed of light. However, an outside observer will see you shrink to about 14% of your original length along the direction of your motion according to the Lorentz contraction predicted by special relativity:
[tex]L=L_{0} \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2 }{c^2 }}[/tex]
