The pressure exerted by a gas on its container is directly proportional to ________.

1 answer:

6 0

The pressure exerted by a gas on its container is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

This result is known as "Gay-Lussac law", which states that for an ideal gas with fixed volume (like the gas in the container), the ratio between pressure and absolute temperature of the gas is constant:
 $\frac{p}{T}=k$
where p is the pressure of the gas and T its absolute temperature.

A car is 200 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 40.0 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she m

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4.17 m/s²

Explanation:

We are told the reaction time is 0.2 s. Now, during this reaction time the car is going to travel an additional distance of : x = u × t = 40 × 0.2 = 8 m

where u is the initial velocity of the car which is 40.0 m/s.

We are told that he had 200 m to stop before applying brakes. Thus, after applying brakes, he now has a distance to cover of; s = 200 - 8 = 192 m

Since vehicle is coming to rest acceleration would be negative, thus using Newton's equation of motion, we have;

v ² = u² - 2as

v = 0 m/s since it's coming to rest

u = 40 m/s

s = 192 m

Thus;

0² = 40² - 2(a)(192)

0² = 1600 - 384a

a = 1600/384

a = 4.17 m/s²

An object moves from the position +16m to the position +43m in 12s. What us the total displacement

NeX [460]

First method

initial distance = 16m

final distance= 43 m

total distance covered= final -initial

=43m -16m

=27m

Second method

Si= 16m

Sf =43 m

t= 12 s

first we will find V

V = (Sf-Si)/ t

V =( 43- 16)/ 12

V = 27/12 ⇒ V= 9/4

V= distance / time

distance= V×time

distance = (9/4) ×12

distance =27

Under certain circumstances, potassium ions (K+) in a cell will move across the cell membrane from the inside to the outside. Th

choli [55]

Answer:

$1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$

Explanation:

q = Charge in the potassium ion = $19e-18e$

e = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

$V_2-V_1$ = Change in potential = $0-(-85.5\times 10^{-3})$

Change in electric potential is given by

$E=q(V_2-V_1)\\\Rightarrow E=(19e-18e)(0-(-85.5\times 10^{-3})\\\Rightarrow E=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 85.5\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow E=1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$

The energy is $1.368\times 10^{-20}\ J$
