Answer: Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure of that gas in any container.

Explanation:

Hi, according to Boyle's Gas law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of that gas, at a constant temperature.

The expression is:

P1.V1= P2.V2

V= 1/P

PV = k  

Where:

P = pressure of a gas

V = volume of a gas

k = constant

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure of that gas in any container.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law which states that at constant absolute temperature, the fixed volume of a given gas is inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts on.

P = k/V

Where,

K = proportionality constany

P = pressure in mmhg, Pa, atm etc.

V = volume in m^3, liters etc.

P1 × V1 = P2 × V2

A manometer using oil (density 0.900 g/cm3) as a fluid is connected to an air tank. Suddenly the pressure in the tank increases
Mila [183]

Answer:

Rise in level of fluid is 0.11 m

Rise in level of fluid in case of mercury is 0.728 cm or 7.28 mm

Solution:

As per the question:

Density of oil, \rho_{o} = 0.900\ g/cm^{3} = 900\ kg/m^{3}

Change in Pressure in the tank, \Delta P = 7.28\ mmHg

Density of the mercury, \rho_{m} = 13.6\ g/cm^{3} = 13600\ kg/m^{3}

Now,

To calculate the rise in the level of fluid inside the manometer:

We know that:

1 mmHg = 133.332 Pa

Thus

\Delta P = 7.28\ times 133.332 = 970.656\ Pa

Also,

\Delta P = \rho_{o} gh

where

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the fluid level

970.656 = 900\times 9.8\times h

h = 0.11 m

Now, if mercury is used:

\Delta P = \rho_{m} gh

970.656 = 13600\times 9.8\times h

h = 0.00728 m = 7.28 mm

Two tuning forks struck simultaneously produce a beat with a frequency of 2 Hz. The frequency of one fork is 364 Hz. What are th
Kitty [74]

Answer: If the other two frequencies are F and F1 then;

F-364=2

F=364+2

F=366Hz

364-F1=2

F1=364-2

F1=362Hz

Hence the two possible frequencies are 362Hz and 366Hz

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

7.83

Explanation:

Just using the speed ,distance and time relation..Let time be T

Use this formula and find the distance covered by automobile .

Do same for car ..

and at last subtract the distance of automobile to car =141.

i.e (Distance of automobile -Dist.of car )=141
