A gas is placed in a 5.0-mL syringe. It exerts 127 mm Hg of pressure on the inside walls of the syringe. The syringe's plunger i

s pressed, reducing the volume of the syringe to 2.4 mL. The cap was not removed from the syringe, so none of the gas escapes. Assuming the temperature of the gas does not change, use Boyle's law to determine the pressure of the compressed gas.

Answer:264.58 mm of Hg

Explanation:

Given

Volume of gas V_1=5\ mL

Pressure P_1=127\ \text{mm of Hg}

If the Plunger is pressed volume is reduced to

V_2=2.4\ mL

As temperature of the gas does not change so it follows boyle's law

According to which

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

127\times 5=P_2\times 2.4

P_2=264.58\ \text{mm of Hg}

Answer:

Total energy = 1000J

KE = 500J

PE = 500J

Explanation:

As you may know, the equation for gravitational potential energy is mgh (weight x height)

If the skateboard is halfway down, that means it is at half the height. As the skateboard speeds up (as it goes downward), the potential energy becomes kinetic energy. Since it has 500J of kinetic energy at half way down, it means it had double that amount of Potential energy at the top (1000J). Since half of that became kinetic energy, there is only 500J of PE left.

Total energy = KE + PE = 1000J

KE = 500J

PE = 500J
