Conservation of Energy:
As a projectile is launched into the air KE is at its maximum. As the projectile gains altitude PE becomes greater than KE. At the top of its arc, PE is at its maximum. The whole cycle reverses itself on the way down.
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. according to this, the mass of the products must equal the mass of the reactants.
Answer:
65 L
Explanation:
It is assumed that the temperature is constant at both the sea level and the altitude.
<em>According to the gas law, at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.</em> Mathematically:
P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = pressure at initial volume, V1 = volume at initial pressure, P2 = pressure at final volume, and V2 = volume at final pressure.
In the illustration, V1 = 15 L, P1 = 100 kPa, V2 =?, P2 = 23 kPa
V2 = P1V1/P2 = 100 x 15/23 = 65.22 L
<u>The volume of the hot air balloon at the altitude would be 65 L</u>
