A weather balloon is filled to a volume of 2 liters with helium gas at a pressure of 101 kPa, at a temperature of 22oC. The ball

oon is released and floats to a height where the pressure is 90 kPa and the air temperature is now 16oC. What is the new volume of the weather balloon?

Answer: The new volume of weather balloon will be 2.2 Liters

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 101 kPa

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 90 kpa

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 2 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ? L

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $22^oC=273+22=295K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $16^oC=273+16=289K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

$\frac{101\times 2L}{295K}=\frac{90\times V_2}{289K}$

$V_2=2.2L$

Therefore, the volume will be 2.2 Liters.

Suppose that you have a 680 Ω, a 720 Ω and a 1.20 kΩ resistor. (a) What is the maximum resistance you can obtain by combining th

Delvig [45]

Explanation:

As the given data is as follows.

$R_{1} = 680 \ohm$ ohm $\ohm$ , $R_{2} = 720 \ohm$ ohm,

$R_{3} = 1.2 k\ohm$ = 1200 $\ohm$ (as 1 k ohm = 1000 m)

(a) We will calculate the maximum resistance by combining the given resistances as follows.

Max. Resistance = $R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3}$

= $(680 + 720 + 1200) \ohm$ ohm

= 2600 ohm

or, = 2.6 $k\ohm$ ohm

Therefore, the maximum resistance you can obtain by combining these is 2.6 $k\ohm$ ohm.

(b) Now, the minimum resistance is calculated as follows.

Min. Resistance = $\frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}} + \frac{1}{R_{3}}$

= $\frac{1}{680} + \frac{1}{720} + \frac{1}{1200}$

= $3.683 \times 10^{-3}$ ohm

Hence, we can conclude that minimum resistance you can obtain by combining these is $3.683 \times 10^{-3}$ ohm.

X rays of wavelength 0.0169 nm are directed in the positive direction of an x axis onto a target containing loosely bound electr

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

a) 4.04*10^-12m

b) 0.0209nm

c) 0.253MeV

Explanation:

The formula for Compton's scattering is given by:

$\Delta \lambda=\lambda_f-\lambda_i=\frac{h}{m_oc}(1-cos\theta)$

where h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the electron and c is the speed of light.

a) by replacing in the formula you obtain the Compton shift:

$\Delta \lambda=\frac{6.62*10^{-34}Js}{(9.1*10^{-31}kg)(3*10^8m/s)}(1-cos132\°)=4.04*10^{-12}m$

b) The change in photon energy is given by:

$\Delta E=E_f-E_i=h\frac{c}{\lambda_f}-h\frac{c}{\lambda_i}=hc(\frac{1}{\lambda_f}-\frac{1}{\lambda_i})\\\\\lambda_f=4.04*10^{-12}m +\lambda_i=4.04*10^{-12}m+(0.0169*10^{-9}m)=2.09*10^{-11}m=0.0209nm$

c) The electron Compton wavelength is 2.43 × 10-12 m. Hence you can use the Broglie's relation to compute the momentum of the electron and then the kinetic energy.

$P=\frac{h}{\lambda_e}=\frac{6.62*10^{-34}Js}{2.43*10^{-12}m}=2.72*10^{-22}kgm\\$

$E_e=\frac{p^2}{2m_e}=\frac{(2.72*10^{-22}kgm)^2}{2(9.1*10^{-31}kg)}=4.06*10^{-14}J\\\\1J=6.242*10^{18}eV\\\\E_e=4.06*10^{-14}(6.242*10^{18}eV)=0.253MeV$

An 7.5 × binocular has 3.7-cm-focal-length eyepieces. What is the focal length of the objective lenses? Express your answer to t

elixir [45]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of magnification, which is given as the relationship between the focal length of the eyepieces and the focal length of the objective. This relationship can be expressed mathematically as,

$\mu = \frac{f_0}{f_e}$

Here,

$\mu$ = Magnification

$f_e$ = Focal length eyepieces

$f_0$ = Focal length of the Objective

Rearranging to find the focal length of the objective

$f_0 = \mu f_e$

Replacing with our values

$f_0 = 7.5* 3.7cm$

$f_0 = 27.75cm$

Therefore the focal length of th eobjective lenses is 27.75cm
