516.

The value of T in the figure above is

A.

30N

B.

10.0N

C.

20N

D.

40N

Correct answer is D

Tsin30 + Tsin30 =40

2Tsin30 = 40

Tsin30 = 40/2 = 20

T(12) = 20

T = 20 x 2 = 40N

According to kinetic molecular model, in gases

A.

The molecule are very fast apart & occupy all the space made available

B.

The particles occur in clusters with molecules slightly farther apart

C.

The particles vibrate about fixed positions and are held together by the strong intermolecular bond between them

D.

The particles are closely packed together, they occupy minimum space & are usually arranged in a regular pattern

Correct answer is A

In kinetic molecular model, gases are energized and thus moves freely, fast as they occupy specific space

A metal rod has a length of 100cm at 200oC. At what temperature will its length be 99.4cm. If the linear expansivity of the material of the rod is 2 x 105C1

A.

200oC

B.

300oC

C.

100oC

D.

-100oC

Correct answer is D

L1 = 100cm, T1 = 200oC

L2 = 99.4cm,T2 = ?

α = 2 x 105C1

α = L2L1L1(T2T1)

2 x 105=99.4100100(T2200)=0.6100(T2200)

2 x 105 x 100(T2200)=0.6

T2200=0.60.002=300oC

T2=200300=100oC
