For a set of very long (essentially infinitely long) charged parallel plates, the electric field between them is constant, and the electric field is given by

E = ΔV/d

ΔV is the potential difference between the plates and d is the distance of their separation.

If d is halved but E stays constant, then by the relationship above, ΔV must also have been halved.

A. Potential difference was halved.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the position of the intake and exhaust valves during most of the power sta
I am Lyosha [343]

Both valves are closed during the power stroke.

While the fuel is burning in the cylinder, you want
all the force of the expanding gases to push the
piston down ... you don't want any of the gases
or their pressure escaping. 

If either of the valves was open, even just a crack,
then part of the gases would go blooey out the valve,
and some pressure would be lost that's supposed to be
pushing the piston.

A gas at 5.00 atm pressure was stored in a tank during the winter at 5.0 °C. During the summer, the temperature in the storage a
saw5 [17]

Answer:

a) 5.63 atm

Explanation:

We can use combined gas law

<em>The combined gas law</em> combines the three gas laws:

  • Boyle's Law,   (P₁V₁ =P₂V₂)
  • Charles' Law  (V₁/T₁ =V₂/T₂)
  • Gay-Lussac's Law.  (P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂)

It states that the ratio of the product of pressure and volume and the absolute temperature of a gas is equal to a constant.

P₁V₁/T₁ =P₂V₂/T₂

where P = Pressure, T = Absolute temperature, V = Volume occupied

The volume of the system remains constant,

So, P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂

a) \frac{5}{278} =\frac{P_2}{313}  \\\\P_2=\frac{5*313}{278}\\ P_2 = 5.63 atm

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour in 2.22 s
muminat

Answer:

Acceleration = 10.06 m/s²

Explanation:

1 mile = 1.6093km

1609.3m = 1 mile

1 m = \frac{1}{1609} mile

50.0 miles/hour = \frac{50 * 1609.3}{60 * 60} m/s

                          = 22.35m/s

from equation

S = Ut + 1/2 at²

v = U + at

22.35 = 0 + a * 2.22

a = 22.35 ÷ 2.22

= 10.06 m/s²
