Assume that the pressure inside of the 1 liter balloon is 200,000 Pa, what is the explosive energy in the inside the balloon? Express your answer in joules and pounds of TNT (2.1 x 106 J = 1 lb of TNT).

Respuesta :

Answer:

200 Joules is the explosive energy in the inside the balloon. And that is  [tex]9.523\times 10^{-5} [/tex]1 lb of TNT.

Explanation:

[tex]Pressure=\frac{force}{Area}=\frac{Force\times distance}{Area \times distance}=\frac{Energy}{Volume}[/tex]

Volume of the balloon = V = 1 L = [tex]0.001 m^3[/tex]

Pressure inside the balloon ,P= 200,000 Pa =[tex]200,000 N/m^2[/tex]

Explosive energy in the inside the balloon be E.

E = Pressure × Volume

[tex]E=200,000 N/m^2\times 0.001 m^3=200 Joules[/tex]

1 lb of TNT = [tex]2.1\times 10^6 J[/tex]

200 Joules = [tex]200\times \frac{1}{2.1\times 10^6 }[/tex]1 lb of TNT

= [tex]9.523\times 10^{-5} [/tex]1 lb of TNT
