Boyle said that, if temperature of ideal gas is kept constant then pressure and volume of ideal gas are inversely proportional to each other.

Pα1/V
Pressure decreases with elevation therefore volume of balloon increases.

You stand on top a building 44 m tall with a water balloon. You drop the water balloon from rest. How fast is the balloon moving
BabaBlast [244]

Y₀ = initial position of the balloon at the top of the building = 44 m

Y = final position of the balloon at halfway down the building = 44/2 = 22 m

a = acceleration of the balloon = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the balloon = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the balloon = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

v² = 0² + 2 (- 9.8) (22 - 44)

v = 20.78 m/s

Unless indicated otherwise, assume the speed of sound in air to be v = 344 m/s. You have a stopped pipe of adjustable length clo
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Length of pipe = 0.057 meter

Explanation:

Speed of a transverse wave on a string

v = \sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu} }

where F is the tension in string and \mu is the mass per unit length

Thus,

\mu = \frac{m}{L}

Substituting the given values we get -

\mu = \frac{7.25 * 10^{-3}}{0.62}\\mu = 0.0117 \frac{Kg}{m}

Speed of a transverse wave on a string

v = \sqrt{\frac{4510}{0.0117} } \\v = 620.86 \frac{m}{s}

For third harmonic wave , frequency is equal to

f = \frac{nv}{2L}

Substituting the given values, we get -

f = \frac{3 * 620.86}{2 * 0.62} \\f = 1502.08

Length of pipe

L = \frac{nv}{4 f}

Substituting the given values we get

n = 1 for first harmonic wave

L = \frac{344* 1}{4*1502.08} \\L = 0.057

Length of pipe = 0.057 meter
