A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 27.6 l at a pressure of 736 mmhg and a temperature of 26.1 âc. the balloon rises in

the atmosphere to an altitude where the pressure is 360. mmhg and the temperature is -14.0 âc.

We know from gas equation: 

PV=mRT

Where:
P is pressure
V is the volume of the balloon
m is the mass of gas in the balloon (constant)
R is universal gas constant divided by mean molar wt of air (about 28 g/mol) T is thermodynamic temperature (T in Kelvin; T=273 + t (in deg C)
P1 * V1 =m*R*T1 ---- (i) P2 * V2 =m*R*T2 ---- (ii)
Dividing 1 by 2 we get: 
V1 / V2 = (P2/P1) * (T1/T2)
Given:V1=27.6, P1=736mmhg, T1 = 273+26.1=299.1V2=?, P2 = 360mmhg, T2 = 273+(-14)=259
so, V2 = 27.6*(736/360)*(259/299.1) = 48.86

what causes sounds? A. electromagnectic energy B. the release of sensory neurons C.movement that causes changes in air placement
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D.vibrations that cause changes in air pressure

Explanation:

Sound is a type of wave.

A wave is a periodic disturbance/oscillation that trasmits energy without transmitting matter. There are two different types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of crests (points of maximum positive displacement) and troughs (points of maximum negative displacement). Examples of transverse wave are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of compressions (regions where the density of particle is higher) and rarefactions (regions where the density of particle is lower). Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Sound waves, in particular, consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium - most commonly, air - that occur back and forth along the direction of motion of the wave. Because of these motion, the air will have areas of higher pressure (which correspond to the compressions), where the density of particles is higher, and areas of lower pressure (which correspond to the rarefactions), where density of particles is lower.

A ball is rolled of a 2.14m table at 8m/s. Find the time of flight for the ball and the horizontal range
Mama L [17]

Answer:

0.661 s, 5.29 m

Explanation:

In the y direction:

Δy = 2.14 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(2.14 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.661 s

In the x direction:

v₀ = 8 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.661 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (8 m/s) (0.661 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.661 s)²

Δx = 5.29 m

Round as needed.

The ratio of the speed of light in a medium to the speed of light in a vacuum
Liula [17]

Answer:D.Refractive Indez

Explanation:

It is usually expressed the other way: the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a medium. In that case, it is called the "index of refraction".
