Question:
Consider a sample of helium gas in a container fitted with a piston as pictured below. The piston is frictionless, but has a mass of 10.0 kg. How many of the following processes will cause the piston to move away from the base and decrease the pressure of the gas? Assume ideal behavior.
I. Heating the helium. II.
II. toRemoving some of the helium from the container.
III. Turning the container on its side.
IV. Decreasing the pressure outside the container.
a) 0
b) 1
c) 2
d) 3
e) 4
Answer:
Only one process will cause the piston to move which is
i) Heating the helium
Explanation:
When helium is heated it becomes less dense or lighter. Heating the helium will cause an increase in volume which will make the piston to move away from the base. When the volume finishes increasing, the piston will stop moving which in turn will make the forces on both sides of the piston balanced, so the pressure inside will balance the weight of the piston and that of the atmosphere. From that we can see that there has been a pressure change as a result of heating.
F = ma
a = f/m
if f doubled , acc. will be doubled

Answer:
A first-class lever: fulcrum is between input and output force; second-class lever: output force is between input force and fulcrum; third-class lever: input force is between fulcrum and output force
Answer:
Though you have not gave the choices, I do believe it is “testing”
