By 'waves' do you mean sound waves? If so sound waves need to travel through things like solids, liquids and yup <u>gases. </u>When the waves travel they are vibrating the molecules in the matter. By doing this he molecules in solids are packed very tightly.
Answer:
3.55atm
Explanation:
We will apply Boyle's law formula in solving this problem.
P1V1 = P2V2
And with values given in the question
P1=initial pressure of gas = 1.75atm
V1=initial volume of gas =7.5L
P2=final pressure of gas inside new piston in atm
V2=final volume of gas = 3.7L
We need to find the final pressure
From the equation, P1V1 = P2V2,
We make P2 subject
P2 = (P1V1) / V2
P2 = (1.75×7.5)/3.7
P2=3.55atm
Therefore, the new pressure inside the piston is 3.55atm
Answer:
5.61983 × 10^5
Explanation:
Move the decimal forward 5 spaces, each time doing so you add 10^(# of spaces moved, in this case 5)
