Response:

(a) W=-19.25J

(b) W=-52.8J

Clarification:

Greetings.

(a) In this case, since the starting volume is 18.5 dm³ and the ending volume is 21 dm³ (18.5 +2.5), we can calculate the work at constant pressure as shown below:

W=-P\Delta V=-7.7kPa*\frac{1000Pa}{1kPa} (21dm^3-18.5dm^3)*\frac{1m^3}{1000dm^3}\\ \\W=-19.25J

This value is negative as it expands against the given pressure.

(b) Furthermore, if the process is conducted reversibly, the pressure might change, hence, we need to calculate the work using:

W=nRTln(\frac{V_1}{V_2} )

The moles are calculated based on the provided mass of argon:

n=6.56g*\frac{1mol}{39.95g}=0.164mol

Consequently, the work amounts to:

W=0.164mol*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K} *305Kln(\frac{18.5dm^3}{21dm^3} )\\\\W=-52.8J

Best regards.

Two blocks are attached to opposite ends of a massless rope that goes over a massless, frictionless, stationary pulley. One of t
Softa [2959]

Answer:

1/7 kg

Explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram for enhanced clarity regarding the question.

One of the blocks weighs 1.0 kg and accelerates downward at 3/4g.

g denotes the acceleration due to gravity.

Let M represent the block with known mass, while 'm' signifies the mass of the other block and 'a' refers to the acceleration of body M.

Given M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g.

By applying Newton's second law; \sum fy = ma_y

For the body with mass m;

T - mg = ma... (1)

For the body with mass M;

Mg - T = Ma... (2)

Combining equations 1 and 2 gives;

+Mg -mg = ma + Ma

Ma-Mg = -mg-ma

M(a-g) = -m(a+g)

Substituting M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g into this equation leads to;

3/4 g-g = -m(3/4 g+g)

3/4 g-g = -m(7/4 g)

-g/4 = -m(7/4 g)

1/4 = 7m/4

Multiplying gives: 28m = 4

m = 1/7 kg

Hence, the mass of the other box is 1/7 kg

Determine the final state and temperature of 100 g of water originally at 25.0°c after 50.0 kj of heat have been added to it.
inna [2995]
The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is represented by
Q=m C_p \Delta T
where m stands for the mass of the substance and C_p indicates the specific heat of the substance. In this situation, we possess m=100~g=0.1~Kg and C_p=4.19~KJ/(Kg K), the specific heat of water.
Consequently, we can ascertain the temperature rise \Delta T:
\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_p}= \frac{50~KJ}{0.1~Kg cdot 4.19~KJ/(Kg K)}=119~K =119^{\circ}C
Initially, the water's temperature was 25^{\circ}C, so the end temperature should be
T_f = 25^{\circ}C+119^{\circ}C=144^{\circ}C
Thus, the water is expected to be vapor by now.

However, to give a more accurate statement, during the liquid to vapor transition, the heat added to the system is used to break molecular bonds instead of raising the system's temperature. The heat necessary for the phase change from liquid to vapor is expressed as
Q=m C_L=0.1~Kg \cdot 2265~KJ/Kg=226.5~KJ
where C_L denotes the latent heat of vaporization for water.
Nevertheless, the initial heat input of 50 KJ is less than this requirement, indicating there isn't sufficient heat to finish the liquid-vapor transition. Therefore, the water will remain in the liquid-vapor change phase at a temperature of 100^{\circ}C (the temperature at which the phase change begins)

If a person weighs 882 N on the surface of the earth, at what altitude above the earth’s surface must they be for their weight t
Sav [3045]

Para calcular el peso utilizamos la fórmula:
F=m*g=882N

Cuando tenemos dos cuerpos, empleamos la fórmula de la gravedad general:
F=G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E} }{ r^{2} }
Donde:
G = constante de gravedad = 6.67* 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}
Mp = masa de la persona = 882 / 9.81= 89.9kg
ME = masa de la Tierra = 5.97* 10^{24} kg
r = distancia entre la Tierra y la persona

A partir de estas dos fórmulas, deducimos que los lados izquierdos son equivalentes, por lo tanto, los lados derechos también deben serlo.
m*g=G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E} }{ r^{2} }

Resolviendo esta ecuación para r:
r= \sqrt{G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E}}{M_{p}*g}
r=6371116m = 6371.116km

Esta es la distancia desde el centro de la Tierra. El radio de la Tierra es 6370km y la altura sobre la superficie es 6371.116 - 6370 = 1.116km o 1116m.
