The volume of the balloon will halve

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that for an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its volume. Mathematically,

$pV=const.$

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

And if we apply it to the gas inside the balloon in this problem (assuming its temperature is constant), we have:

$p_1 = 101 kPa$ is the initial pressure at sea level (the atmospheric pressure)

$V_1$ is the initial volume

$p_2 = 202 kPa$ is the final pressure

$V_2$ is the final volume

Substituting into the equation, we find:

$V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(101)V_1}{202}=\frac{V_1}{2}$

Which means that the volume of the balloon will halve.

S Problem Set<br> 2.) 6.4 x 109 nm to cm

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$6.4\cdot 10^2 cm$

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert from nanometres to metres, keeping in mind that

$1 nm = 10^{-9} m$

So we have:

$6.4\cdot 10^9 nm \cdot 10^{-9} m/nm = 6.4 m$

Now we can convert from metres to centimetres, keeping in mind that

$1 m = 10^2 cm$

So, we find:

$6.4 m \cdot 10^2 cm/m = 6.4\cdot 10^2 cm$

Leni [432]

Answer:

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

Explanation:

In order to analyze the statements of this problem we propose your solution.

First let's look at Newton's first, which stable that every object is at rest or with constant speed unless something takes it out of this state (acceleration)

Now let's look at the second postulate, which says that force is related to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration.

As a result of these two laws, for a body is a constant velocity the summation force on it must be zero.

Now we can analyze the statements given.

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

False. If the force is different from zero, there is acceleration that changes the speeds

False. There may be forces, but the sum of them must be zero

False. If a force acts, the acceleration is different from zero and the speed changes

Thermal energy is added to a sample, its particles move ?

8_murik_8 [283]

Yes, if the temperature increases, than that means the particles are moving faster. Temperature is the measure of movement of particles in an object or substance.

By thermal energy, you mean adding heat correct....? I'm not very good at this sort of thing, but I gave you what I have..
