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.

I'm very confused on this home work question How did magnetism 'drive' the theory of plate tectonics?
kondor19780726 [428]
When Alfred Wegener proposed the idea the continents could move, other scientists scoffed. ... Plate tectonics -- the concept the continents are rockplates moving on the magma underneath -- is now accepted.Magnetism is part of the evidence forplate tectonic theory.

Which are benefits of using nuclear power plants to generate electricity? Check all that apply.
lesya [120]
Below are the benefits <span>of using nuclear power plants to generate electricity:


</span><span>Nuclear power plants use simple power plant designs not vulnerable to human error or natural disasters.
</span>
<span>Nuclear power plants use renewable fuel.
</span>
<span>Nuclear power plants produce a large amount of energy for a small mass of fuel. Nuclear power plants produce no toxic waste products. 
</span><span>
- The outflows of nursery gasses and in this manner the commitment of atomic power plants to an Earth-wide temperature boost is accordingly moderately little. The era of power through atomic vitality lessens the measure of vitality produced from non-renewable energy sources (coal and oil). Less utilization of petroleum products implies bringing down ozone-depleting substance outflows (CO2 and others).
