In an adiabatic process, an ideal gas contracts to a volume that is 1/12 of its initial volume. The initial temperature is 340 K. What is the final temperature? Let y = 1.67.

Apossible explanation for a set of facts that can be tested by further investigation is called

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.

Aspacecraft that renters the earth’s atmosphere drastically slows down. the amount of kinetic energy the spacecraft has as it reenters the earths atmosphere
