What is the absolute pressure of the gas : Two moles of a monatomic gas with an rms speed of 294 m/s are contained in a tank that has a volume of 0.12 m3. If each gas particle has a mass of 8.220 × 10–26 kg, what is the absolute pressure of the gas?

Hydrogen gas is enclosed within a chamber being held : Some hydrogen gas is enclosed within a chamber being held at 200^\ { C} with a volume of 0.025 \rm m^3. The chamber is fitted with a movable piston. Initially, the pressure in the gas is 1.50 \times 10^6 \; \rm Pa (14.8 \rm atm). The piston is slowly..

An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates : An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates in a Carnot cycle. It takes heat from liquid water at 0.0^{ C} and rejects heat to a room at a temperature of 24.6^\C. Suppose that liquid water with a mass of 82.7kg at 0.0^ C} is converted to ice..

Nitrogen gas is introduced into a large deflated plastic bag : Nitrogen gas is introduced into a large deflated plastic bag. No gas is allowed to escape, but as more and more nitrogen is added, the bag inflates to accommodate it. The pressure of the gas within the bag remains at 1 \rm atm and its temperature rem..

Defined by considering the power output of typical horse : The unit of horsepower was defined by considering the power output of a typical horse. Working-horse guidelines in the 1900s called for them to pull with a force equal to 10% of their body weight at a speed of 3.0 {\rm mph}. Part A For a typical work..

Sled during the impact-how much energy was lost in impact : A child's sled has rails that slide with little friction across the snow. Logan has an old wooden sled with heavy iron rails that has a mass of 8.0kg quite a bit for a 28kg child! Logan runs at 4.0m/s and leaps onto the stationary sled and holds o..
