<h3>Answer:</h3>

189.07 kPa

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Boyle's law

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Initial volume of the syringe, V1 is 16 cm³
  • Initial pressure of the syringe, P1 is 1.03 atm
  • New volume of the syringe, V2 is 8.83 cm³

We are required to calculate the new pressure of the syringe;

  • We are going to use the concept on Boyle's law of gases.
  • According to the Boyle's law, for a fixed mass of a gas, the pressure is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature.
  • That is; P α 1/V
  • At varying pressure and volume, k(constant)  = PV and P1V1=P2V2

Therefore, to get the new pressure, P2, we rearrange the formula;

P2 = P1V1 ÷ V2

     = ( 16 cm³ × 1.03 atm) ÷ 8.83 cm³

    = 1.866 atm.

  • Thus, the new pressure is 1.866 atm
  • But, we need to convert pressure to Kpa
  • Conversion factor is 101.325 kPa/atm

Thus;

Pressure = 1.866 atm × 101.325 kPa/atm

               = 189.07 kPa

Hence, the new pressure of the air in the syringe is 189.07 kPa

On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 180 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You'r
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

g_x = 3.0 m / s^2

Explanation:

Given:

- Change in length of spring [email protected] = 22.6 cm

- Time taken for 11 oscillations t = 19.0 s

Find:

- The value of gravitational free fall g_x at plant X:

Solution:

- We will assume a simple harmonic motion of the mass for which Time is:

                                 T  = 2*pi*sqrt(k / m )    ...... 1

- Sum of forces in vertical direction @equilibrium is zero:

                                 F_net = k*x - m*g_x = 0

                                 (k / m) = (g_x / x)    .... 2

- substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1:

                                  2*pi / T = sqrt ( g_x / x )

                                   g_x = (2*pi / T )^2 * x

- Evaluate g_x:

                                  g_x = (2*pi / (19 / 11) )^2 * 0.226

                                  g_x = 3.0 m / s^2

A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 6.25 s later. What is the depth of the well? (Take the speed of
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

depth of well is 163.30 m

Explanation:

Given data

speed of sound = 343 m/s

timer = 6.25 s

to find out

depth of well

solution

let us consider depth d

so equation will be

depth = 1/2 ×g ×t²    ..............1

and

depth = velocity of sound × time    .................2

here we have given time 6.25 that is sum of 2 time

when stone reach at bottom that time

another is sound reach us after stone strike on bottom

so time 1 + time 2 = 6.25 s

so from equation 1  and 2 we get

1/2 ×g ×t² = velocity of sound × time

1/2 ×9.8 × t1² = 343 × (6.25 - t1 )

t1 = 5.77376 sec

so height = 1/2 ×g ×t²

height = 1/2 ×9.8 × (5.773)²

height = 163.30 m

Calculate the number of free electrons and holes (in m-3) in an intrinsic semiconductor that has electron and hole mobilities of
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

ni = 2.04e19

Explanation:

we know that in semiconductor like intrinsic, when electron leave the band, it leave a hole in valence band so we have

n = p = ni

from intrinsic carrier concentration

\sigma = n\left | e \right | \mu_e + n\left | e \right | \mu_h

\sigma = ni\left | e \right | \mu_e  + ni\left | e \right | \mu_h

\sigma = ni \left | e \right | ( \mu_e + \mu_h)

1.7 = ni * 1.6*10^{-19} * (.35 + .17)

ni = 2.014 *10^{19} m^{-3}

ni = 2.04e19

Which of the following does NOT represent Newton’s second law? Question 20 options: a = m/Fnet m = Fnet/a Fnet = ma a = Fnet/m
Natali [406]

Answer:

a=m/f is not an equation under newton's second law

Explanation:

newton's second law of motion is represented using: f=ma

where a=v-u/t

therefore it becomes,f=m(v-u)/t

from f=ma,

a will become f/m,

m will become f/a
