To solve this problem, we must first assume that the gas acts like an ideal gas so that we can use the ideal gas equation:

 P V = n R T

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant and T is the absolute temperature

 

Assuming that the number of moles is constant, then we can write all the variables in the left side:

P V / T = k            where k is a constant (n times R)

 

Equating two conditions or two states:

P1 V1 / T1 = P2 V2 / T2

We are given that V2 = 2 V1 therefore

P1 V1 T2 = P2 (2V1) T1

P1 T2 = 2 P2 T1

 

Additionally we are given that the temperature in Celsius is doubled, however in the formula we use the absolute temperature in Kelvin, therefore:

T1 (K) = T1 + 273.15

T2 (K) = 2T1 + 273.15

and P1 = 12 atm

 

Substituting:

<span>12 (2T1 + 273.15)  = 2 P2 (T1 + 273.15)</span>

P2 = 6 (2T1 + 273.15) / (T1 + 273.15)

 

Assuming that a nice spring day in Chicago has a temperature of 15 Celsius, therefore:

P2 = 6 (2*15 + 273.15) / (15 + 273.15)

<span>P2 = 6.312 atm</span>

Guillaume puts a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.1 K.
Zarrin [17]

Answer: (a) The magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b) The magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.

Explanation:

(a)  Expression for change in temperature is as follows.

        |\Delta T| = |x - y|K

                         = 15.1 K

                    = |(x - 273.15) - (y - 273.15)|^{o}C

                    = |x - y|^{o}C

                    = 15.1^{o}C

Therefore, the magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b)  Change in temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows.

           F = 1.8C + 32

          C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}

Since,   K = C + 273

or,    \Delta K = \Delta C = \frac{\Delta F}{1.8}

         \Delta F = 1.8 \Delta K

                      = 1.8 (15.1)

                      = 27.18^{o}F

or,                  = 27.2^{o}F

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.

You are traveling at 14 m/s for 20 seconds. What is your displacement?
enyata [817]

Velocity = 14 m/s

Time = 20 s

Displacement = Velocity×Time = (14×20) m = 280 m

The displacement is 280 m towards the direction of motion.

A uniform linear charge of 2.0 nC/m is distributed along the x axis from x = 0 to x = 3 m. What is the x component of the electr
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The x component of the electric field at y=2m is E_{x}=17.97\frac{N}{C}

Explanation:

For a linear charge, using <u>Gauss Law</u>, we get that the <em>Electric field (radial) has the following form</em>

E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_{0}r}

<em>where λ is the charge for longitud unit given in the problem, r is replaced by the y coordinate, and there are two known more data</em>. So

E=\frac{2*10x^{-9}}{2*2\pi\epsilon_{0}}=17.97\frac{N}{C}

is the x component of the Electric field at y=2m on the y axis, which is what we wanted to know.
