Chapter 20: Q 66 (page 567)

III Consider a container like that shown in Figure \(20.12\), with \(n_{1}\) moles of a monatomic gas on one side and \(n_{2}\) moles of a diatomic gas on the other. The monatomic gas has initial temperature T1li−. The diatomic gas has initial temperature \(T_{2 \mathrm{i}}\).

A 1.0kgball is at rest on the floor in a2.0m×2.0m×2.0m room of air at STP. Air is80% nitrogen (N2)and20% oxygen(O2) by volume.
a. What is the thermal energy of the air in the room?
b. What fraction of the thermal energy would have to be conveyed to the ball for it to be spontaneously launched to a height of1.0m ?
c. By how much would the air temperature have to decrease to launch the ball?
d. Your answer to part c is so small as to be unnoticeable, yet this event never happens. Why not?

A mad engineer builds a cube,2.5mon a side, in which 6.2-cmdiameterrubber balls are constantly sent flying in random directions by vibrating walls. He will award a prize to anyone who can figure out how many balls are in the cube without entering it or taking out any of the balls. You decide to shoot 6.2-cmdiameter plastic balls into the cube, through a small hole, to see how far they get before colliding with a rubber ball. After many shots, you find they travel an average distance of 1.8m. How many rubber balls do you think are in the cube?
