How does reducing the volume of a container affect the gas pressure inside/

1 answer:

6 0

Pressure is inversely proportional to volume (at constant temperatures.)

Reducing the volume of a container will increase the gas pressure inside because there will be more collisions of the gas particles with the walls of the container.

5. Find the mass of a car that is traveling at a velocity of 35 m/s West.

sattari [20]

Answer:

m = 9795.9 kg

Explanation:

v = 35 m/s

KE = 6,000,000 J

Plug those values into the following equation:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

6,000,000 J = (1/2)(35^2)m

---> m = 9795.9 kg

serg [7]

Answer:

$\Delta U = 1640 J$

Explanation:

As we know by first law of thermodynamics that for ideal gas system we have

Heat given = change in internal energy + Work done

so here we will have

Heat given to the system = 2.2 kJ

Q = 2200 J

also we know that work done by the system is given as

$W = 560 J$

so we have

$\Delta U = Q - W$

$\Delta U = 2200 - 560$

$\Delta U = 1640 J$
