- A certain ideal gas has a molar specific heat of Cv = 72R. A 2.00-mol sample of the gas always starts at pressure 1.00 105 Pa and temperature 300 K. For each of the following processes, determine (a) the final pressure, (b) the final volume, (c) the final temperature, (d) the change in internal energy of the gas, (e) the energy added to the gas by heat, and (f) the work done on the gas. (i) The gas is heated at constant pressure to 400 K. (ii) The gas is heated at constant volume to 400 K. (iii) The gas is compressed at constant temperature to 1.20 105 Pa. (iv) The gas is compressed adiabatically to 1.20 105 Pa.arrow_forwardAt our distance from the Sun, the intensity of solar radiation is 1 370 W/m2. The temperature of the Earth is affected by the greenhouse effect of the atmosphere. This phenomenon describes the effect of absorption of infrared light emitted by the surface so as to make the surface temperature of the Earth higher than if it were airless. For comparison, consider a spherical object of radius r with no atmosphere at the same distance from the Sun as the Earth. Assume its emissivity is the same for all kinds of electromagnetic waves and its temperature is uniform over its surface. (a) Explain why the projected area over which it absorbs sunlight is r2 and the surface area over which it radiates is 4r2. (b) Compute its steady-state temperature. Is it chilly?arrow_forwardUnreasonable Results A meteorite 1.20 cm in diameter is so hot immediately after penetrating the atmosphere that it radiates 20.0 kW of power. (a) What is its temperature, if the surroundings are at 20.0C and it has an emissivity of 0.800? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which premise or assumption is responsible?arrow_forward
- The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m K and 0.020 W/m K, respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin sin face lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37C and the exterior temperature is 0C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air a absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2.arrow_forwardOn a cold winter day. you buy roasted chestnuts from a street vendor. Into the pocket of your down parka you put the change he gives you: coins constituting 9.00 g of copper at 12.0C. Your pocket already contains 14.0 g of silver coins at 30.0C. A short time later the temperature of the copper coins is 4.00C and is increasing at a rate of 0.500C/s. At this time, (a) what is the temperature of the silver coins and (b) at what rate is it changing?arrow_forwardA 3.00-g copper coin at 25.0C drops 50.0 m to the ground. (a) Assuming 60.0% of the change in gravitational potential energy of the coin-Earth system goes into increasing the internal energy of the coin, determine the coins final temperature. (b) Does the result depend on the mass of the coin? Explain.arrow_forward
- Review. A 670-kg meteoroid happens to be composed of aluminum. When it is far from the Earth, its temperature is 15.0C and it moves at 14.0 km/s relative to the planet. As it crashes into the Earth, assume the internal energy transformed from the mechanical energy of the meteoroid-Earth system is shared equally between the meteoroid and the Earth and all the material of the meteoroid rises momentarily to the same final temperature. Find this temperature. Assume the specific heat of liquid and of gaseous aluminum is 1 170 J/kg C.arrow_forwardEqual 0.400-kg masses of lead and tin at 60.0C are placed in 1.00 kg of water at 20.0C.

(c) How many atoms of tin NSn, are in 0.400 kg of tin, and how many atoms of lead NPb are in 0.400 kg of lead? (d) Divide the number NSn of tin atoms by the number NPb of lead atoms and compare this ratio with the specific heat of tin divided by the specific beat of lead.

- An aluminum rod and an iron rod are joined end to end in good thermal contact. The two rods have equal lengths and radii. The free end of the aluminum rod is maintained at a temperature of 100.C, and the free end of the iron rod is maintained at 0C. (a) Determine the temperature of the interface between the two rods.
