18. A bullet with a mass of 20grams and a velocity 2000m/s has been brought to rest by a bulletproof vest having a mass of 3kg and an specific heat of 2.02kJ/kg- K. Treating the bodies as a system and neglecting any energy loss, determine the change in temperature of the bulletproof vest right after the scenario. Derive with the formula below, show the cancellation, explain the step by step and DRAW a free body diagram/figure. refer with this: PE1 + KE1 + U1 + WF1 + Q1 + W1 = PE2 + KE2 + U2 + WF2 + Q2 + W2 + E losses.
A block of metal of mass 54 grams initially at a temperature of 285° C is placed in 474 grams of water initially at a temperature of 50° C. If we can ignore energy losses to the environment, what is the equilibrium temperature that the metal and the water will reach? The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.28 cal/g/ºC. Round off your answer to a whole number (no decimals) but do not type the unit.
An ideal gas is confined within a thermally isolated cylinder. It consists of N atoms initially at a pressure of p0. A movable piston seals the right end of the cylinder, as shown in the figure. (Figure 1)A given amount of heat Q is slowly added to the gas, while the piston allows the gas to expand in such a way that the gas's temperature remains constant at T0. A) As heat is added, the pressure in this gas __________. increases decreases remains constant cannot be determined B) Is the internal energy of the gas the same before and after Q is added? yes no C) Does the second law of thermodynamics forbid converting all of the absorbed heat Q into work done by the piston? yes no D) The (Kelvin-Planck statement of the) second law of thermodynamics reads as follows:It is impossible for an engine working in a cycle to produce no other effect than that of extracting heat from a reservoir and performing an equivalent amount of work.The phrase "in a…
An insulated container holds m = 5.23 kg of the solid form of a substance right at the melting temperature of 229.7 K (think "ice"). It is connected to an insulated container that contains the vapour form of the same substance (think "steam") in such a way that heat can transfer between the two containers, but not with the environment. The vapour is exactly at the vapourization temperature of 301.6 K, and the container has exactly enough vapour so that the moment the solid portion has finished melting, exactly all of the vapour has finished condensing. The latent heat of fusion of the substance is 46850 J/kg and the latent heat of vapourization of the substance is 73380 J/kg. What is the total change in entropy for the substance in both containers combined? (i.e. what is AS solid + AS vapour) J/K
Answer the following question please.
Consider the two-sided chamber shown, where the right side has a volume of V and the left side has a volume of 2V. The chamber has a seal which separates the right from the left half. The chamber is sealed and an ideal gas is pumped into the right side at a pressure P and temperature T. The seal between the two sides is then opened. a)If the temperature in the chamber is decreased by a factor of 2 by a refrigeration system while the gas fills the chamber, give an expression for the new pressure P' in terms of the original pressure P. b)The chamber is then sealed again, trapping 2/3 of the gas molecules in the left side. The temperature of the left side is then doubled by a heater, back to the original temperature T. What is the pressure in the left side of the chamber now, in terms of the original pressure?
A thermos bottle with a piston instead of a lid contains a fixed amount of gas. Because it is a thermos bottle, no heat can enter or leave the bottle. The piston is then pushed in, compressing the gas. Does the pressure of the gas increase, decrease, or stay the same? Does the temperature of the gas increase, decrease, or stay the same? Describe the behavior of the molecules of gas during the compression and support your answers to (a) and (b) with an explanation in terms of their behavior. Are there any other properties of the gas that change?
An atom of neon has a radius Ne-38. pm and an average speed in the gas phase at 25°C of 350.m/s. Suppose the speed of a neon atom at 25°C has been measured to within 0.10%. Calculate the smallest possible length of box inside of which the atom could be known to be located with certainty. Write your answer as a multiple of "Ne and round it to 2 significant figures. For example, if the smallest box the atom could be in turns out to be 42.0 times the radius of an atom of neon, you would enter "42.Ne" as your answer. [
