If the temperature is held constant during this process and the final pressure is 683 torrtorr , what is the volume of the bulb

Anna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the volume of the unknown bulb = X L

The volume of the system , after opening valve = (X + 0.72 L )

Use Boyles law gas equation,

P1V1 = P2V2 ( at temperature is constant )

Given:

P1 = 1.2 atm

P2 = 683 torr

Converting mmHg to atm,

1 atm = 760 mmHg(torr)

683 mmHg = 683/760

= 0.8987 atm

1.2X = 0.8987*(X + 0.720)

1.2X = 0.8987X + 0.6471

0.3013X = 0.6471

X = 2.15 L

A 5 kg ball is sitting on top of a hill. It has a Potential Energy of 6000J. What is the height of the ball?

natali 33 [55]

Explanation:

mass=5 kg

potential energy=6000j

height=?

Now

potential energy =m.g.h

or 6000=5*9.8*h

or 6000=49h

or 6000÷49=h

or h= 122.45m
