The gas is in a rigid container: this means that its volume remains constant. Therefore, we can use Gay-Lussac law, which states that for a gas at constant volume, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. The law can be written as follows:
Where P1=5 atm is the initial pressure, T1=254.5 K is the initial temperature, P2 is the new pressure and T2=101.8 K is the new temperature. Re-arranging the equation and using the data of the problem, we can find P2:
So, the new pressure is 2 atm.
The ration of output work to input work expressed as a percentage is called <u>Efficiency</u>.
Answer:
Isabella will not be able to spray Ferdinand.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the time taken for the water to get to the ground from the hose held at 1 m above the ground. This can be obtained as follow:
Height (h) = 1 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =.?
h = ½gt²
1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
1 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.9
t² = 1/4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(1/4.9)
t = 0.45 s
Next, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the water. This can be obtained as follow:
Horizontal velocity (u) = 3.5 m/s
Time (t) = 0.45 s
Horizontal distance (s) =?
s = ut
s = 3.5 × 0.45
s = 1.58 m
Finally, we shall compare the distance travelled by the water and the position to which Ferdinand is located to see if they are the same or not. This is illustrated below:
Ferdinand's position = 10 m
Distance travelled by the water = 1.58 m
From the above, we can see that the position of the water (i.e 1.58 m) and that of Ferdinand (i.e 10 m) are not the same. Thus, Isabella will not be able to spray Ferdinand.
