When a perfume bottle is opened, some liquid changes to gas and the fragrance spreads around the room. which sentence explains this? a) gases do not have a definite volume. b)the particles of gases are closely packed. c)the force of attraction between particles in gases is very high. d)gases are not matter.

The 20@kg wheel has a radius of gyration about its center g of kg = 300 mm. when it is subjected to a couple moment of m = 50 n # m, it rolls without slipping. determine the angular velocity of the wheel after its mass center g has traveled through a distance of sg = 20 m, starting from rest.

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?

Mass (kg) force (n) 5 25 10 50 15 75 20 100 a student was trying to find the relationship between mass and force. he placed four different masses on a table and pulled them using a spring scale. the table shows the different masses used in the experiment and the force required to pull each mass. the student concluded that more force was required to pull heavier objects. what comment would you make regarding his conclusion? a) no clear relation can be observed between mass and force from the data. b) there is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table. c) gravity should have been taken into account while performing the experiment. d) there is an inverse proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.
