Correct Answer: B. 300 K
Explanation:
Kelvin temperature is Celsius temperature plus about 273.
27+273 = 300 K.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: B. Maximum displacement from equilibrium
Explanation:
Amplitude measures the largest excursion from equilibrium.
It affects energy but not the ideal SHM period.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: C. 37°C
Explanation:
Celsius temperature is kelvin temperature minus about 273.
310-273 = 37°C.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: D. 42,000 J
Explanation:
Use Q=mcΔT.
Q=2×4200×5 = 42,000 J.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: A. 30°C
Explanation:
Use ΔT=Q/(mc).
6000/(0.5×400)=30°C.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: B. 1,002,000 J
Explanation:
Use Q=mL.
Q=3×334,000 = 1,002,000 J.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: C. 2 × 10^-5 °C^-1
Explanation:
Use α=ΔL/(LΔT).
α=0.002/(2×50)=2×10^-5 °C^-1.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: D. 200 kPa
Explanation:
Boyle's law gives P1V1=P2V2.
P2=100×4/2 = 200 kPa.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: A. 4 L
Explanation:
Charles's law gives V/T constant.
V2=3×400/300 = 4 L.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: B. 4986 J
Explanation:
The ideal-gas equation gives PV=nRT.
PV=2×8.31×300 = 4986 J.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: C. 300 J
Explanation:
Using ΔU=Q-W for work done by the gas.
ΔU=500-200 = 300 J.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Correct Answer: D. -300 J
Explanation:
Take Q=-400 J and work done by the gas W=-100 J.
ΔU=Q-W=-400-(-100)=-300 J.
