An air bubble has a volume of 1.3 cm3 when it is released by a submarine 160 m below the surface of a freshwater lake. What is t

he volume of the bubble when it reaches the surface? Assume that the temperature and the number of air molecules in the bubble remain constant during the ascent.

Answer:

V2 = 21.44cm^3

Explanation:

Given that: the initial volume of the bubble = 1.3 cm^3

Depth = h = 160m

Where P2 is the atmospheric pressure = Patm

P1 is the pressure at depth 'h'

Density of water = ρ = 10^3kg/m^3

Patm = 1.013×10^5 Pa.

Patm = 101300Pa

g = 9.81m/s^2

P1 = P2+ρgh

P1 = Patm +ρgh

P1 = 1.013×10^5+10^3×9.81×160.

P1 = 101300+1569600

P1 = 1670900 Pa

For an ideal gas law

PV =nRT

P1V1/P2V2 = 1

V2 = ( P1/P2)V1

V2 = (P1/Patm)V1

V2 = ( 1670900 /101300 Pa) × 1.3

V2 = 1670900/101300

V2 = 16.494×1.3

V2 = 21.44cm^3

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: The theory might have become Obsolete or Superseded

Explanation:

A theory becomes obsolete or superseded if it becomes inadequate, false or incomplete in how its describes reality. It does not matter if it was once accepted. There are some theories such as Lysenkoism that are currently described as being obsolete because it does not conform to current reality. Another example of a theory that was superseded is the phlogiston theory. It was replaced a different theory of energy.

1. State the law of conservation of energy and what it means for you as a human considering how energy works.
Arturiano [62]

Answer: 1. The law of consevation of energy sates that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed or transfered from one form to another. The law of conservation of energy is found everywhere for example, Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

2. Different forms of energy are related because energy cannot be created or destroyed. they can all be transformed into from one form to another.

In which one of the following situations is zero net work done? A) A ball rolls down an inclined plane. B) A physics student str
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The work done can be given by the mechanical energy used to do work, i.e., Kinetic energy and potential energy provided to do the work.

In all the cases, except option D, the energy provided to do the useful work is not zero and hence work done is not zero.  

In option D, the box is being pulled with constant velocity, making the acceleration zero and thus Kinetic energy of the system is zero. Hence work done in this case is zero.

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.
