<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

Please help I’m stuck
Gnoma [55]

The weight of the box is <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em>, where <em>m</em> is the mass. So

<em>m</em> = <em>w</em>/<em>g</em> = (3893.40 N) / (9.80 m/s²) ≈ 397 kg

Then the box has density

(397 kg)/(4.60 m³) ≈ 86.4 kg/m³

which is less than the density of the given liquid, so the box will float.

The speed of a sound wave traveling through air is 400 meters per second. The wavelength of the wave is 25 meters What is the
sweet [91]

Answer:

16Hz

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed of sound  = 400m/s

Wavelength  = 25m

Unknown:

Frequency of the wave  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

      V  = F ∧  

V is the velocity

F is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

      400  = F x 25

        F  = 16Hz

An apparatus similar to the one used in lab uses an oscillating motor at one end to vibrate a long rope with frequency f = 40 Hz
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The displacement in t = 0,  

y (0) = - 0.18 m

Explanation:

Given f = 40 Hz , A = 0.25m , μ = 0.02 kg / m, T = 20.48 N

v = √ T / μ

v = √20.48 N / 0.02 kg /m = 32 m/s

λ = v / f

λ = 32 m/s / 40 Hz = 0.8

K = 2 π / λ

K = 2π / 0.8 = 7.854

φ = X * 360 / λ

φ = 0.5 * 360 / 0.8 = 225 °

Using the model of y' displacement

y (t) = A* sin ( w * t - φ )

When t = 0

y (0) = 0.25 m *sin ( w*(0) - 225 )

y (0) = 0.25 * -0.707

y (0) = - 0.18 m
