A naval technician inspects a solid aluminum component intended for an aircraft assembly. The component has a mass of 162 g162\text{ g} and the density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm32.7\text{ g/cm}^3. What is the volume of the component in cubic centimeters (cm3\text{cm}^3)?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 60

Cevap

The volume of the aluminum component is 60 cm360\text{ cm}^3.
Density is defined by the formula ρ=mV\rho = \frac{m}{V}. Rearranging algebraically to solve for volume yields V=mρV = \frac{m}{\rho}. Substituting the given values: V=162 g2.7 g/cm3=60 cm3V = \frac{162\text{ g}}{2.7\text{ g/cm}^3} = 60\text{ cm}^3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the relevant physical formula and isolate the unknown variable
Volume=MassDensity\text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}
Density (ρ\rho) is a characteristic physical property defined as mass per unit volume (ρ=mV\rho = \frac{m}{V}).
2
Substitute the measured mass and known density to calculate volume
Volume=162 g2.7 g/cm3=60 cm3\text{Volume} = \frac{162\text{ g}}{2.7\text{ g/cm}^3} = 60\text{ cm}^3
Dividing 162162 by 2.72.7 gives 6060, with units simplifying to cm3\text{cm}^3.

A motorized winch pulls a 250 kg250\text{ kg} equipment sled across a level, frictionless sheet of ice. If the winch exerts a constant horizontal force of 750 N750\text{ N} starting from rest, what is the speed of the sled, in meters per second (m/s\text{m/s}), after 4 seconds4\text{ seconds}?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 12

Cevap

The sled reaches a speed of 12 m/s12\text{ m/s} after 4 seconds4\text{ seconds}.
Applying Newton's second law gives an acceleration of a=Fm=750 N250 kg=3 m/s2a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{750\text{ N}}{250\text{ kg}} = 3\text{ m/s}^2. Since the sled begins at rest (v0=0v_0 = 0), its speed after 4 s4\text{ s} is v=at=3 m/s2×4 s=12 m/sv = at = 3\text{ m/s}^2 \times 4\text{ s} = 12\text{ m/s}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the acceleration produced by the net horizontal force
a=Fnetm=750 N250 kg=3 m/s2a = \frac{F_{\text{net}}}{m} = \frac{750\text{ N}}{250\text{ kg}} = 3\text{ m/s}^2
According to Newton's second law of motion (F=maF = ma), acceleration equals the net force divided by mass.
2
Calculate final speed from initial rest and constant acceleration over time
v=v0+at=0 m/s+(3 m/s2)(4 s)=12 m/sv = v_0 + at = 0\text{ m/s} + (3\text{ m/s}^2)(4\text{ s}) = 12\text{ m/s}
Uniform acceleration kinematic equation relates velocity change to acceleration multiplied by elapsed time.

A bimetallic strip made of two different metals bonded firmly along their lengths bends into an arc when heated evenly. Which of the following best explains why this bending occurs?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The two metals expand at different rates as their temperature increases.

Cevap

The two metals expand at different rates as their temperature increases.
Thermal expansion causes materials to expand upon heating, but different materials expand by different amounts for the same temperature change due to differing coefficients of thermal expansion. Because the two metal strips are bonded together, the metal that expands more forms the outer, longer curve of the arc, causing the entire strip to bend predictably.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the thermal property involved when solid objects change size upon heating.
Most solids undergo thermal expansion, increasing in length and volume as temperature rises.
Added thermal energy increases the average vibrational kinetic energy of atoms, pushing them slightly further apart.
2
Analyze how bonding two materials with different expansion rates affects the combined structure.
The metal with the higher coefficient of thermal expansion expands more in length than the metal with the lower coefficient.
Because the two strips are permanently joined, the longer expanded strip must curve around the shorter strip, resulting in a bent arc.

Cevap: A series circuit, because all components share a single continuous path for electric current

Cevap

A series circuit, because all components share a single continuous path for electric current
In a series circuit, all electrical loads are connected end-to-end along a single continuous path. Because electric current must travel through each component sequentially, removing or burning out any one bulb breaks the loop, creating an open circuit that immediately turns off all remaining bulbs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the pathway configuration of the electrical components in the circuit
The circuit contains only one continuous conducting path connecting every bulb in sequence.
Understanding the number of paths for current flow determines whether a circuit is wired in series or in parallel.
2
Analyze the effect of removing a component on the circuit loop
Removing one bulb creates a gap (open circuit), halting the flow of charge through the entire path.
Electric current requires an uninterrupted closed loop from the power source back to the source to flow.

During a routine vehicle maintenance check, a technician records four distinct observations about an engine and its fluid systems. Which of the following observations describes a physical change rather than a chemical change?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Engine oil decreasing in viscosity and flowing more freely as operating temperature rises

Cevap

Engine oil decreasing in viscosity and flowing more freely as operating temperature rises
The observation describing engine oil thinning as temperature increases represents a physical change. Viscosity is a physical property governed by intermolecular forces; heating increases molecular motion and reduces resistance to flow without altering the chemical composition of the oil.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distinguish between physical and chemical changes
A physical change alters the form, state, or appearance of a substance without changing its chemical identity. A chemical change produces one or more new substances through bond breaking and formation.
Correct classification requires evaluating whether the molecular structure of the substance is modified.
2
Evaluate the fluid behavior under temperature change
When engine oil is heated, thermal energy reduces intermolecular attractions, causing the fluid to thin (lower viscosity). The chemical structure of the hydrocarbon base oil remains identical.
Since no new substance is formed and the process is reversible upon cooling, the change in flow properties is purely physical.

Cevap: 3 m/s23\text{ m/s}^2

Cevap

3 m/s23\text{ m/s}^2
Mass measures an object's inertia and does not change when moving between Earth and orbit. Using the Earth weight W=120 NW = 120\text{ N} and gravity g=10 m/s2g = 10\text{ m/s}^2, the container's mass is m=12 kgm = 12\text{ kg}. In orbit, applying a net force of 36 N36\text{ N} yields an acceleration of a=F/m=36 N/12 kg=3 m/s2a = F/m = 36\text{ N} / 12\text{ kg} = 3\text{ m/s}^2.

On a clear, sunny afternoon at the beach, the dry sand becomes hot enough to burn bare feet, while the adjacent ocean water remains relatively cool despite receiving identical amounts of solar radiation. Which property accounts for this difference in temperature?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Water has a significantly higher specific heat capacity than sand.

Cevap

Water has a significantly higher specific heat capacity than sand.
Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of a given mass of a substance by one degree Celsius. Water has one of the highest specific heat capacities of common natural substances (around 4.184 J/(g⋅∘C)4.184\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})), whereas dry sand has a relatively low specific heat capacity (around 0.80 J/(g⋅∘C)0.80\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})). As a result, receiving the same amount of solar radiation causes sand to experience a rapid and dramatic temperature increase, while water exhibits only a modest temperature change.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the thermal conditions described in the scenario
Both the sand and the water absorb equal radiant solar energy per unit area over the same duration, but the sand reaches a much higher temperature.
Establishing equal energy input isolates material-specific thermal properties as the cause of the temperature variance.
2
Apply the thermodynamic definition of specific heat capacity (Q=mcΔTQ = mc\Delta T)
Temperature change is inversely proportional to specific heat capacity (ΔT=Qmc\Delta T = \frac{Q}{mc}).
Specific heat capacity (cc) measures the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one unit of mass by one degree Celsius.
3
Compare the specific heat capacities of water and sand
Water has a specific heat capacity of approximately 4.184 J/(g⋅∘C)4.184\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C}), whereas dry sand has a specific heat capacity of approximately 0.80 J/(g⋅∘C)0.80\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C}).
Because water requires roughly five times more energy per gram to raise its temperature by one degree, it warms up far more slowly than sand under the same sun exposure.

Cevap: Applying a drop of concentrated hydrochloric acid to observe whether hydrogen gas is produced

Cevap

Applying a drop of concentrated hydrochloric acid to observe whether hydrogen gas is produced
Applying hydrochloric acid to observe gas production directly tests chemical reactivity, which is a chemical property because the metal undergoes a reaction to form new chemical substances (a metal salt and hydrogen gas).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define the difference between physical and chemical properties
Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the chemical composition of the substance (e.g., melting point, density, mass, volume). Chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances to form entirely new materials (e.g., reactivity with acid, flammability, oxidation).
Establishing the fundamental definitions allows proper classification of each lab procedure.
2
Evaluate the procedure testing reaction with acid
When acid is placed on the metal, the formation of hydrogen gas demonstrates a chemical reaction (M+2HCl→MCl2+H2M + 2HCl \rightarrow MCl_2 + H_2), altering the chemical bonds and forming new compounds.
A change in chemical composition indicates the measurement of a chemical property.

Cevap

Trapped air, Liquid water, Iron, Copper
Thermal conductivity measures a material's ability to conduct heat. Gases like trapped air have widely dispersed molecules and are the poorest conductors. Liquids like water have closer molecules and conduct heat moderately better than gases. Solid metals conduct heat rapidly due to free electrons, with copper exhibiting superior conduction compared to iron.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the state of matter and thermal mechanism for each substance
Trapped air is a gas, liquid water is a non-metallic liquid, while iron and copper are solid metals.
Thermal conduction occurs through particle collisions and free electron movement, which depends heavily on state of matter and atomic bonding.
2
Rank the non-metals based on molecular density
Trapped air has the lowest thermal conductivity (k≈0.026 W/(m⋅K)k \approx 0.026\text{ W/(m}\cdot\text{K)}), followed by liquid water (k≈0.6 W/(m⋅K)k \approx 0.6\text{ W/(m}\cdot\text{K)}).
Gases have large intermolecular distances leading to rare collisions, whereas liquids are denser and transfer kinetic energy more readily.
3
Rank the metals based on electronic thermal transport
Iron has a thermal conductivity of approximately 80 W/(m⋅K)80\text{ W/(m}\cdot\text{K)}, whereas copper has a thermal conductivity of approximately 400 W/(m⋅K)400\text{ W/(m}\cdot\text{K)}.
Both metals conduct heat via free valence electrons, but copper's electronic structure allows significantly higher conductivity.

Cevap: 5 m/s25\text{ m/s}^2

Cevap

5 m/s25\text{ m/s}^2
The upward thrust of 520 N520\text{ N} is opposed by the downward gravitational force of 320 N320\text{ N} (40 kg×8 m/s240\text{ kg} \times 8\text{ m/s}^2). The resulting net upward force is 200 N200\text{ N}. Dividing this net force by the mass of 40 kg40\text{ kg} gives an upward acceleration of 5 m/s25\text{ m/s}^2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the downward force of gravity (weight) acting on the drone.
W=m×g=40 kg×8 m/s2=320 NW = m \times g = 40\text{ kg} \times 8\text{ m/s}^2 = 320\text{ N} downward.
Gravity exerts a constant downward force equal to the product of mass and local gravitational acceleration.
2
Determine the net vertical force acting on the drone.
Fnet=Flift−W=520 N−320 N=200 NF_{\text{net}} = F_{\text{lift}} - W = 520\text{ N} - 320\text{ N} = 200\text{ N} upward.
The upward lift and downward weight act in opposite directions along the vertical axis, so their magnitudes subtract.
3
Apply Newton's second law (Fnet=maF_{\text{net}} = ma) to solve for acceleration.
a=Fnetm=200 N40 kg=5 m/s2a = \frac{F_{\text{net}}}{m} = \frac{200\text{ N}}{40\text{ kg}} = 5\text{ m/s}^2.

First, find the constant acceleration by dividing the change in velocity by elapsed time: a=15 m/s5 s=3 m/s2a = \frac{15\text{ m/s}}{5\text{ s}} = 3\text{ m/s}^2. Next, use Newton's second law of motion (F=maF = ma) to find the net force: F=200 kg×3 m/s2=600 NF = 200\text{ kg} \times 3\text{ m/s}^2 = 600\text{ N}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the linear acceleration using the kinematic formula a=ΔvΔta = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}.
a=15 m/s−0 m/s5 s=3 m/s2a = \frac{15\text{ m/s} - 0\text{ m/s}}{5\text{ s}} = 3\text{ m/s}^2
Acceleration represents the rate at which velocity changes over time.
2
Apply Newton's second law of motion (Fnet=m×aF_{\text{net}} = m \times a).
Fnet=200 kg×3 m/s2=600 NF_{\text{net}} = 200\text{ kg} \times 3\text{ m/s}^2 = 600\text{ N}
The net force required to accelerate an object is equal to the product of its mass and its acceleration.

An open pot of pure water on a stove reaches a vigorous boil at standard atmospheric pressure. While heat continues to be supplied by the burner, which of the following describes what happens to the temperature of the boiling liquid water as it turns to steam?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The temperature remains constant at 100∘C100^\circ\text{C} because the added thermal energy is used to break intermolecular bonds during the phase change.

Cevap

The temperature remains constant at 100∘C100^\circ\text{C} because the added thermal energy is used to break intermolecular bonds during the phase change.
When a pure substance reaches its boiling point at constant pressure, its temperature remains unchanged until the entire liquid has transitioned into vapor. The continuous input of heat supplies the latent heat of vaporization, which breaks the intermolecular bonds holding liquid molecules together rather than increasing their average kinetic energy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the physical state and process occurring in the system.
Water is actively undergoing a phase change from liquid to gas (boiling/vaporization) at standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm1\text{ atm}).
Phase transitions have specific thermodynamic properties distinct from single-phase heating.
2
Analyze how thermal energy affects substances during a phase transition.
The added energy functions as the latent heat of vaporization, which overcomes intermolecular hydrogen bonds rather than increasing molecular kinetic energy.
Temperature is a measure of average translational kinetic energy; because the kinetic energy does not increase during the phase change, temperature remains constant until all liquid has vaporized.

Cevap: Tarnishing of silver electrical contacts upon exposure to airborne sulfur

Cevap

Tarnishing of silver electrical contacts upon exposure to airborne sulfur
Tarnishing of silver contacts is a chemical change because silver reacts chemically with sulfur in the environment to produce silver sulfide (Ag2SAg_2S), creating a new chemical compound with distinct physical and chemical properties.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Differentiate between physical and chemical changes in matter
A physical change alters form, shape, or state of matter without changing chemical composition, whereas a chemical change breaks or forms chemical bonds to produce one or more new substances.
Establishing the core scientific criteria allows systematic evaluation of each scenario.
2
Classify the molecular behavior in each observed procedure
Melting solder and evaporating alcohol are phase changes (solid to liquid, liquid to gas), and bending copper is mechanical deformation—all physical changes. Tarnishing involves silver atoms chemically combining with sulfur to yield silver sulfide (Ag2SAg_2S), a new substance.
Identifying which process produces a chemically distinct substance isolates the chemical change.

Cevap

Aerosol canister cooling matches adiabatic expansion doing work and decreasing internal energy; Cooling tower matches absorption of latent heat of vaporization during liquid-to-gas phase change; Evacuated double-wall flask matches elimination of a material medium to stop conduction and convection; Aluminum finned heat sink matches increasing surface area to maximize convective and radiative dissipation.
Each application precisely maps to its foundational thermodynamic mechanism: aerosol discharge is an adiabatic expansion lowering temperature; cooling towers utilize latent heat of vaporization; vacuum flasks eliminate the physical medium to block conduction and convection; and finned heat sinks expand surface area to enhance fluid convection.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the aerosol canister phenomenon
Identified as adiabatic gas expansion
Rapid discharge does not allow heat transfer from the environment during expansion, causing internal kinetic energy to decrease as work is performed.
2
Analyze the cooling tower operation
Identified as phase-change latent heat absorption
Water evaporation requires high latent heat of vaporization, extracting thermal energy from the remaining water volume.
3
Analyze the vacuum flask structure
Identified as medium elimination to block conduction and convection
Thermal conduction and convection depend entirely on molecular interactions within a material medium, which is absent in a vacuum.
4
Analyze the finned heat sink geometry
Identified as geometric surface area expansion for convection
The rate of heat transfer by convection is directly proportional to the surface area in contact with the cooling fluid.
