<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

A 35kg cannonball sits at rest on a flat level surface. What is the normal force exerted on the cannon ball. Use -9.8 m/s2 for a
Tom [10]

Answer:

a) N = 343 [N]

Explanation:

We must remember Newton's third law, which tells us that the force acting on a body is equal to the normal reaction force of equal magnitude but acting in the opposite direction.

N=m*g

where:

m = mass = 35 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

N = 35*9.8\\N= 343 [N]

compare the numbers of each subatomic particle found in both diagrams and then list what makes hydrogen diffrent from hellium
Cloud [144]

The helium atom is found to contain more particles than the hydrogen atom.

<h3>What is a subparticle?</h3>

An atom is composed of particles and these particles are electrons protons and neutrons. The collective name for these particles is the subatomic particles.

Now we know that the helium atom contains more sub atomic particles than the atom of hydrogen. This is because, the helium atom contains two neutrons and two protons as well as two electrons. On the other hand, the hydrogen atom contains one neutron and one proton as well as one electron.

Thus, the helium atom is found to contain more particles than the hydrogen atom.
