A) The temperature increases by a factor 6

We can use the ideal gas equation:

pV=nRT

where

p is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the temperature

We can also rewrite it as

\frac{pV}{T}=nR

The gas is in a sealed container - this means the amount of gas is fixed, so n is constant. Since R is constant too, the term on the right in the equation is constant. So we can rewrite the equation as:

\frac{p_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}

where in this problem we have:

V_2 = 2V_1 (the volume is doubled)

p_2 = 3 p_1 (the pressure is tripled)

re-arranging the equation, we find the change in temperature:

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{p_1 V_1}=\frac{(3 p_1)(2 V_1)}{p_1 V_1}=6

so, the temperature increases by a factor 6.

B) The temperature increases by a factor 1.5.

We can use again the same equation:

\frac{p_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}

Where in this case:

V_2 = \frac{V_1}{2} (the volume is halved)

p_2 = 3 p_1 (the pressure is tripled)

So, we can find the change in temperature:

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{p_1 V_1}=\frac{(3 p_1)(\frac{V_1}{2})}{p_1 V_1}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5

So, the temperature increases by 1.5 times.

Will give correct answer brainliest<br><br>5 kg m/s<br>8kg m/s<br>80 kg m/s<br>200 kg m/s​
o-na [289]

Answer: Here this will help you..

Explanation:

1 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 1 kilogram-force meter/second

5 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 5 kilogram-force meter/second

10 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 10 kilogram-force meter/second

20 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 20 kilogram-force meter/second

30 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 30 kilogram-force meter/second

40 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 40 kilogram-force meter/second

50 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 50 kilogram-force meter/second

75 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 75 kilogram-force meter/second

100 kg-m/s to kilogram-force meter/second = 100 kilogram-force meter/second

A man starts walking north at 3 ft/s from a point P. Five minutes later a woman starts walking south at 4 ft/s from a point 500
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

ds/dt = 6.98 ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The speed of man due north Vm = 3 ft/s

- The speed of woman due south Vw = 4 ft/s

- Woman starts walking 5 mins later than man

Find:

At what rate are the people moving apart 15 min after the woman starts walking?

Solution:

- The total time for which the man is walking due north from P, is Tm:

                                   Tm = 5 + 15 = 20 mins

- The total distance traveled by man in Tm mins is:

                                   Dm = Tm*Vm

                                   Dm = 20*60*3

                                   Dm = 3,600 ft

- The total time for which the woman is walking due south from 500 ft due east from P, is Tw:

                                   Tw = 15 = 15 mins

- The total distance traveled by man in Tw mins is:

                                   Dw = Tw*Vw

                                   Dw = 15*60*4

                                   Dw = 3,600 ft

- The displacement between man and woman at any instance is (s) which can be related by pythagoras theorem as follows:

                                   s^2 = (dm + dw)^2 + 500^2

Where, dm : Distance travelled by man at any time Tm

            dw : Distance travelled by woman at any time Tw

- Differentiate s with respect to t:

                                   2s*ds/dt = 2*(dm + dw)*(Vm + Vw)

                                   s*ds/dt = (dm + dw)*(Vm + Vw)

                                   ds/dt = [ (dm + dw)*(Vm + Vw) ] / s

- Evaluate the rate of separation of man and woman ds/dt by evaluating at instance Tm = 20 mins and Tw = 15 mins. We have:

                 ds/dt = [ (Dm + Dw)*(Vm + Vw) ] / sqrt ( (Dm + Dw)^2 + 500^2 )

- Plug in the values:

                 ds/dt = [ (3600 + 3600)*(3 + 4) ] / [sqrt ( (3600 + 3600)^2 + 500^2 )]  

                ds/dt = 6.98 ft/s

Which evidence did Alfred Wegener’s original theory of continental drift have access to?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Evidence for continental drift

Wegener knew that fossil plants and animals such as mesosaurs, a freshwater reptile found only South America and Africa during the Permian period, could be found on many continents. He also matched up rocks on either side of the Atlantic Ocean like puzzle pieces.
