How is the pressure of a gas related to its concentration of particles?A) Pressure will expand a gas, enlarging its volume and r
1 answer:
Answer:
C) Pressure will compress a gas, reducing its volume and giving it a greater density and concentration of particles.
Explanation:
At constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely related.
P V = constant
As the pressure increases, the gas compresses, the particles come closer reducing the volume of gas.
As we know, with decrease in volume, density increases.
Thus, the pressure of a gas is directly related to concentration of particles. Increase in pressure causes increase in concentration of the particles.

Answer:
Explanation:
The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by
where
is the horizontal velocity
t is the time of flight
The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.
In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is
in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to
And so the new distance travelled will be
So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
