Two sealed 1 l containers full of gas are at room temperature. Container a has a pressure of 4 atm and container b has a pressur

e of 2 atm. What must be true about the number densities of the gases in these containers?

Answer:

The number density of the gas in container A is twice the number density of the gas in container B.

Explanation:

Here we have

P·V =n·R·T

n = P·V/(RT)

Therefore since V₁ = V₂ and T₁ = T₂

n₁ = P₁V₁/(RT₁)

n₂ = P₂V₂/(RT₂)

P₁ = 4 atm

P₂ = 2 atm

n₁ = 4V₁/(RT₁)

n₂ =2·V₁/(RT₁)

∴ n₁ = 2 × n₂

Therefore, the number of moles in container A is two times that in container B and the number density of the gas in container A is two times the number density in container B.

This can be shown based on the fact that the pressure  of the container is due to the collision of the gas molecules on the walls of the container, with a kinetic energy that is dependent on temperature and mass, and since the temperature is constant, then the mass of container B is twice that of A and therefore, the number density of container A is twice that of B.

The magnification produced by a plane mirror is +1. what does this mean?
disa [49]

Answer:

The magnification produced by a plane mirror is +1

means then the size of the image is equal to the size of the object. If m has a magnitude greater than 1 the image is larger than the object, and an m with a magnitude less than 1 means the image is smaller than the object.

27b. You're in an airplane that flies horizontally with speed 1000 km/h (280 m/s) when an engine falls off. Ignore air resistanc
jonny [76]

Answer:

8400m

Explanation:

The engine that falls off would have the same constant horizontal velocity as the airplane's when if falls off if we ignore air resistance. So it would have a horizontal velocity of 280m/s for 30seconds before it hits the ground.

Therefor the horizontal distance the engine travels during its fall is

280 * 30 = 8400m

What type of Literary Devices is this passage and provide an explanation
bekas [8.4K]

By the admiring tone that the writer has for the gift that she/he received, it is clear that there's a lot of imagery. The writer also described the rose as "perfect", "scented dew still wet", and "pure", which further supports the idea that he/she is describing the gift.

Find the wavelength λ of the 80.0-khz wave emitted by the bat. express your answer in millimeters.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

4.29 millimeters

Explanation:

Bats emit ultrasound waves: in air, ultrasound waves travel at a speed of

v=343 m/s

The frequency of the waves emitted by this bat is:

f=80.0 kHz = 80,000 Hz

Therefore we can find the wavelength of the wave emitted by the bat by using the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343 m/s}{80,000 Hz}=4.29\cdot 10^{-3} m=4.29 mm
