If the volume of a container of gas is reduced, what will happen to the pressure inside the container?.

Physics
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The pressure of the gas will increase

Explanation:

When gas is put into a container, for example, a balloon, the gas expands to fill the space it can occupy. Since gas is not a solid or a liquid, its particles are all over the place - they are constantly moving and vibrating. As such, when too much gas is blown into a balloon, it will pop. So, when the volume of the container decreases, the pressure of the gas will increase the smaller it gets. Vice versa, the greater the space, the less pressure that will be present in the container.

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21)  = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x =  3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.

A weight is hung from the ceiling of an elevator by a massless string. Under which circumstances will the tension in the cord be
Oduvanchick [21]
When the elevator is going up (assuming the elevator is acceleration)

When the elevator is accelerating downwards, the total gravitational force would be larger.

If the elevator is accelerating upwards, then the gravitation force would be smaller, thus the tension in the string would be smaller.

Why do you think the carbon dioxide measurements have increased so much in the last 100 years or so?
Travka [436]

Answer:

Explanation:

Carbon Dioxide has increased in the last 100 years because we’ve been told it has. We don’t know via our own senses of course, so we just have to accept that it has. I personally don’t know how CO2 levels are measured since different parts of the world have different levels of CO2. For instance, the Pacific Ocean which occupies 30% of the entire planet has no trees or green plants at all and therefore absorbs only small amounts of CO2.
