Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the eq

uation PV = C, where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 400 cm3, the pressure is 160 kPa, and the pressure is increasing at a rate of 40 kPa/min. At what rate is the volume decreasing at this instant?

Answer:

100 cm^3/min

Explanation:

PV = C

V = 400 cm^3

P = 160 kPa

dP/dt = + 40 kPa/min

According to the question

PV = C

Differentiate both sides with respect to time

P x dV/dt + V x dP/dt = 0

160 x dV/dt = - 400 x 40

dV/dt = - 100 cm^3/min

The volume decreases by the rate of 100 cm^3/min.

Describe what would happen if you rubbed a mineral with a Mohs hardness value of 7 against a mineral with a value of 5?
chubhunter [2.5K]
The mineral with Mohs hardness would be scratched because the mineral with Mohs 7 hardness is stronger than the Mohs 5 mineral. Eventually, that mineral would turn into dust if you kept rubbing it.

The electrons lost from chlorophyll photooxidation are replaced by the oxidation of water. how many electrons are generated from
White raven [17]

There are 2 electrons generated from the oxidation of one water molecule.

<h3>Describe photooxidation.</h3>

The process of a substance interacting with oxygen or losing electrons from chemical species under the influence of light is known as photooxidation. Photooxidation happens in plants when there is environmental stress. It is called photooxidative stress as a result. Reactive oxygen species are produced by the absorption of excess excitation energy in plant tissues. Chloroplasts are harmed by the accumulation of these reactive oxygen species, which is a damaging process in plants. High-intensity light and little CO_{2} are the two conditions that cause this photooxidative stress to occur most frequently. It is a procedure that requires light. Photorespiration in C_{3} plants guards against photooxidation.

a flashlight has a resistance of 2.4 ohms. what voltage is applied by the batteries if the current in the circuit is 2.5A?
Mashcka [7]

E = I R

That means 

        Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

                     =   (2.5 A)  x  (2.4 ohms)

                     =       6 volts .
