A motorist inflates the tires of her car to a pressure of 180 kPa on a day when the temperature is -8.0° C. When she arrives at

her destination, the tire pressure has increased to 245 kPa. What is the temperature of the tires if we assume that the tires do not expand?

Apply Gay-Lussac's law:

P/T = const.

P = pressure, T = temperature, the quotient of P/T must stay constant.

Initial P and T values:

P = 180kPa, T = -8.0°C = 265.15K

Final P and T values:

P = 245kPa, T = ?

Set the initial and final P/T values equal to each other and solve for the final T:

180/265.15 = 245/T

T = 361K

Answer:

D. are brought from the mantle to the surface in magma that hardens into komatiite.

Explanation:

Diamond :

 It is the hardest form of carbon.The atomic atoms arrange in the cubic crystal structure and this is known as diamond cubic.Another form of the diamond at room temperature is graphite.This is used for making jewelry.This is also used in the cutting process because it has high strength.

Therefore the correct option for the diamond is D.

An empty truck traveling at 10 km/h has kinetic energy. How much kinetic energy does it have when loaded so that its mass and it
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

8 time increase in K.E.

Explanation:

Consider Mass of truck = m kg and speed = v m/s then

K.E. = 1/2 ×mv²

If mass and speed both are doubled i.e let m₀ = 2m and v₀ = 2v then

(K.E.)₀ =  1/2 ×2m(2v)²

(K.E.)₀ = 8 (1/2 × mv²) = 8 × K.E.

A person is standing on a spring bathroom scale on the floor of an elevator which is moving up and slowing down at the rate of 3
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

F_N=1194.24\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

The elevator is moving up and slowing down at the rate of, a=3\ m/s^2

The acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8\ m/s^2

Mass of the person, m = 93.3 kg

To find,

The reading of the scale.

Solution,

As the elevator is moving down with some acceleration. The net force acting on it is given by :

F_N=ma+mg

F_N=m(a+g)

F_N=93.3(3+9.8)

F_N=1194.24\ N

So, the scale will read 1194.24 N.

A 5000 kg train is traveling at a velocity of 100 m/s and hits another train. The two trains stick together and the new velocity
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum is used to solve

Unfortunately we have a missing piece of information such as the initial velocity of the unknown mass train.

If we ASSUME that the second train is at rest

5000(100) + m(0) = 5000(50) + m(50)

which means m = 5000 kg

However, I'll show you the importance of knowing that initial velocity by finding it assuming the other answers are valid

if m = 15000 kg

5000(100) + 15000(v₀) = (5000 + 15000)(50)

v₀ = 33 ⅓ m/s

if m = 10000 kg

5000(100) + 10000(v₀) = (5000 + 10000)(50)

v₀ = 25 m/s

if m = 8000 kg

5000(100) + 8000(v₀) = (5000 + 8000)(50)

v₀ = 18.75 m/s

So you can see why I had to assume an initial velocity. Any of the masses could work if the initial velocity is chosen correctly.
