Consider a sample containing 1.70 mol of an ideal diatomic gas. (a) Assuming the molecules rotate but do not vibrate, find the total heat capacity of the sample at constant volume. nCv = J/K
(b) Assuming the molecules rotate but do not vibrate, find the total heat capacity of the sample at constant pressure. nCp = J/K
(c) Assuming the molecules both rotate and vibrate, find the total heat capacity of the sample at constant volume. nCv = J/K
(d) Assuming the molecules both rotate and vibrate, find the total heat capacity of the sample at constant pressure. nCp = J/K

The motor m applies a time-varying force of f (200 t) n, where t is in seconds. box b with mass 200 kg starts from rest, and the coefficients of kinetic and static friction are 0.2 and us 0.3 the acceleration due to gravity is g 9.8 m/s2 b 300 a) find the time ' when the box starts to move. b) calculate the speed of the crate at 3 s c) calculate the power delivered by the motor at t 3 s

Isla’s change in velocity is 30 m/s, and hazel has the same change in velocity. which best explains why they would have different accelerations? isla had negative acceleration, and hazel had positive. isla had a different time than hazel. isla had positive acceleration, and hazel had negative. isla went a farther distance than hazel.

Aheat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. the same engine running backward is called a heat pump if its purpose is to exhaust warm air into the hot reservoir. heat pumps are widely used for home heating. you can think of a heat pump as a refrigerator that is cooling the already cold outdoors and, with its exhaust heat qh, warming the indoors. perhaps this seems a little silly, but consider the following. electricity can be directly used to heat a home by passing an electric current through a heating coil. this is a direct, 100% conversion of work to heat. that is, 19.0 \rm kw of electric power (generated by doing work at the rate 19.0 kj/s at the power plant) produces heat energy inside the home at a rate of 19.0 kj/s. suppose that the neighbor's home has a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 4.00, a realistic value. note: with a refrigerator, "what you get" is heat removed. but with a heat pump, "what you get" is heat delivered. so the coefficient of performance of a heat pump is k=qh/win. an average price for electricity is about 40 mj per dollar. a furnace or heat pump will run typically 200 hours per month during the winter. what does one month's heating cost in the home with a 16.0 kw electric heater? what does one month's heating cost in the home of a neighbor who uses a heat pump to provide the same amount of heating?
