Which condition will cause the pressure exerted by a gas in a closed container to increase?

1 answer:

8 0

B

Pressure is force / area. The pressure of a gas in a container can be considered to be the force exerted on the area of the container by gas molecules. If the temperature is increased the gas molecules have more energy so collide with the walls more often and with more force causing pressure to increase.

Which of the following scenarios is possible for the resultant velocity of an airplane in a strong wind to be 150 m/s?

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

B. The wind is blowing at 20 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 130 m/s.

Explanation:

From Physics we get that resultant velocity of an airplane is the sum of an absolute velocity and a relative velocity, that is:

$\vec v_{A} = \vec v_{W}+\vec v_{A/W}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$\vec v_{W}$ - Wind velocity, measured in meters per second.

$\vec v_{A/W}$ - Airplance velocity relative to wind, measured in meters per second.

$\vec v_{A}$ - Airplane velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we assume that $\vec v_{W} = 20\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$ (The airplane flies with the wind), $\vec v_{A/W} = 130\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$ , then the resultant velocity of the airplane is:
