Sam's bike tire contains 15 units of air particles and has a volume of 160mL. Under these conditions the pressure reads 13 psi.

The tire develops a leak. Now it contains 10 units of air particles and has contracted to a volume of 150mL. What would the tire pressure be now?

Use ideal gas equation, with T constant.

pV =nRT => pV / n = RT = constant

n = K* [units of particles]

pV / [units of particles] = constant

13 psi * 160 mL / 15 units = p * 150 mL / 10 units =>

=> p = [13psi*160mL/15units]*[10units/150mL] = 9.2 psi

The following equation shows the position of a particle in time t, x=at2i + btj where t is in second and x is in meter. A=2m/s2,
katen-ka-za [31]

(a) The average velocity of the particle in the time interval t₁=2sec and t₂=3sec is 10 m/s.

(b) The velocity and acceleration at any time t is v =  (4ti + j) m/s and a = a = 4i m/s²

(c)  The average acceleration in the time interval given in part (a)​ is 3.98 m/s².

<h3>Position of the particle</h3>

x = at²i + btj

x = 2t²i + tj

<h3>Average velocity, at t₁=2sec and t₂=3sec</h3>

Δv = Δx/Δt

x(2) = 2(2)²i + 2j

x(2) = 8i + 2j

|x(2)| = √(8² + 2²) = 8.246

x(3) =  2(3)²i + 3j

x(3) = 18i + 3j

|x(3)| = √(18² + 3²) = 18.248

Δv = (18.248 - 8.246)/(3 - 2)

Δv =  10 m/s

<h3>Velocity and acceleration at any time, t</h3>

v = dx/dt

v =  (4ti + j) m/s

a = dv/dt

a = 4i m/s²

<h3>Average acceleration</h3>

v(2) = 4(2)i + j

v(2) = 8i + j

|v(2)| = 8.06 m/s

v(3) = 4(3)i + j

v(3) = 12i + j

|v(3)| = 12.04 m/s

a = (12.04 - 8.06)/(3 - 2)

a = 3.98 m/s²
