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.

Two people are standing on a 3.12-m-long platform, one at each end. The platform floats parallel to the ground on a cushion of a

Ann [662]

Answer:

The magnitude of displacement is 0.082m

Explanation:

While the ball is in motion,we have MV + mv= 0 ...eq1

Where M = combined mass of the platform and the two people.

V = velocity of the platform

m = mass of the ball

v = velocity of the ball

The distance that the platform moves is given by:

X = Vt ...eq2

Where t is the time that the ball is in the air.

The time the ball is in the air is given by:

L/(v-V) ...eq3

Where L is the length of the platform

The quantity(v-V) = velocity of the ball relative to the platform.

Combining eq2 and eq3

X = (V/(v - V))L

From eq1 , the ratios of the velocities is V/v = -m/M

X = (V/v)L / (1 - (V/v) = (-m/M) L /(1+ (m/M))

X = -mL/(M + m)

X = - (3.36kg × 3.12m) /( 119kg + 3.36kg)

X = - 10.48/ 122.36

X = -0.082m

The minus sign implies that the displacement of the platform is in the opposite direction to the displacement of the ball.

Therefore, the distance moved by the platform is the magnitude of this displacement 0.082m.

How are the forces observed related to the motion of the earth around the sun

Inga [223]

This question sounds like it came after some activity where
some forces were observed. Since we were not there, and
we don't know what the activity was, we don't know what forces
were observed, and we have no clue to how they might be related
to the motion of the Earth around the sun.

What are non-metals? explain briefly

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

In chemistry, a nonmetal is a chemical element that is mechanically weak in its most stable form, brittle if solid, and usually gains or shares electrons in chemical reactions. There is no universal agreement on which elements are nonmetals; the numbers generally range from fourteen to twenty-three, depending on the criterion or criteria of interest.
