Calculate a numerical value for the internal energy U of this gas.
Include units in your answer, using Sl units (m for meters, kg for kilograms, s for seconds, J for joules, K for kelvin, etc.).
Write your answer as an exponential as described in the instructions.
The volume V of an ideal gas varies directly with the temperature T and inversely with the pressure P. If a cylinder of 50 liters contains oxygen at a temperature of 200 K and a pressure of 5 atmospheres, what would the gas pressure be if the volume was changed to 30 liters and the temperature raised to 240 K?

- Interstellar space is quite different from the gaseous environments we commonly encounter on Earth. For instance, a typical density of the medium is about 1 atom cm−3 and that atom is typically H; the effective temperature due to stellar background radiation is about 10 kK. Estimate the diffusion coefficient and thermal conductivity of H under these conditions. Compare your answers with the values for gases under typical terrestrial conditions. Comment: Energy is in fact transferred much more effectively by radiation.arrow_forwardJoe Smith, an oldfashioned engineering student, believes that the boiling point of water is best suited for use as the reference point on temperature scales. Unhappy that the boiling point corresponds to some odd number in the current absolute temperature scales, he has proposed a new absolute temperature scale that he calls the Smith scale. The temperature unit on this scale is smith, denoted by S, and the boiling point of water on this scale is assigned to be 1000 S. From a thermodynamic point of view, discuss if it is an acceptable temperature scale. Also, determine the ice point of water on the Smith scale and obtain a relation between the Smith and Celsius scales.arrow_forwardThe emissivity of a surface coated with aluminum oxide can be approximated to be 0.15 for radiation at wavelengths less than 5 mm and 0.9 for radiation at wavelengths greater than 5 mm.

Several of the ongoing projects use liquid helium, which is contained in a thermally insulated vessel that can hold up to a maximum of Vmax = 240 L of the liquid at Tc = 4.20 K. Because some of the liquid helium has already been used, someone asks you to check to see if there is enough for the next day, on which four different experimental groups will need liquid helium. You are not sure how to measure the amount of liquid remaining, so you insert an aluminum rod of length L = 2.00 m and with a cross-sectional area A = 2.50 cm2 into the vessel. By seeing how much of the lower end of the rod is frosted when you pull it out, you can estimate the depth of the liquid helium. After inserting the rod, however, one of the experimenters calls you over to perform a task and you forget about the rod, leaving it in the liquid helium until the next morning. How much liquid helium is available for the next day’s experiments?…arrow_forward
- The gauge pressure in your car tires is 2.5×105 N/m² at a temperature of 35°C when you drive it onto a ferry boat to Alaska. What is their gauge pressure later, when their temperature has dropped to -40.0°C? HINT: Remember to convert temperatures to Kelvin first, and gauge pressure to absolute pressure (just add 1 atm = 1x10^5 N/m2). After that you can use the ideal gas law, but the result will be as an absolute pressure, so subtract back 1 atm before entering the result as a gauge pressure.

- When doing numerical calculations involving temperature, you need to pay particular attention to the temperature scale you are using. In general, you should use the Kelvin scale (for which T = 0 represents absolute zero) in such calculations. This is because the standard thermodynamic equations (i.e., the ideal gas law and the formula for energy of a gas in terms of temperature) assume that zero degrees represents absolute zero. If you are given temperatures measured in units other than kelvins, convert them to kelvins before plugging them into these equations. (You may then want to convert back into the initial temperature unit to give your answer.) Part A The average kinetic energy of the molecules of an ideal gas at 10°C has the value K10. At what temperature T₁ (in degrees Celsius) will the average kinetic energy of the same gas be twice this value, 2K10?
