Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 75cm³

New volume  = 30cm³

New pressure  = 110Pa

Unknown:

Initial pressure = ?

Solution:

Condition: temperature is constant

We simply apply Boyle's law to this problem:

   " the volume of a fixed mass(mole) of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

  Mathematically;

          P₁ V₁  = P₂ V₂

where P and V are pressure and volume values

          1 and 2 are the initial and final states.

Input the parameters and solve for P₁;

     P₁ x 75  = 110 x 30

   P₁ = 44Pa

         

The initial pressure is 44Pa

Energy can be changed from one form to another. Which terms can be used to describe these changes? Select all that apply.
aliya0001 [1]

Energy is the capacity to do work. Energy exists in various forms in the entire universe.

It  may be light,sound,electric,magnetic,kinetic,potential,thermal energy etc.

As per the law of conservation of energy, it is neither created not destroyed. It can change from one form to another form.The total energy of the universe is always constant.

The process in which energy will change from one form to another form is called energy conversion.

There is also another terminology for energy conversion called energy transformation.

Energy transference is the process in which energy will be transferred from one body to another body.

Hence the correct answer to this question will be conversion and transformation

Fiora starts riding her bike at 20 mi/h. After a while, she slows down to 14 mi/h, and maintains that speed for the rest of the
goblinko [34]

Answer:

3.5 hours

Explanation:

Speed = distance/time

Let the distance that Fiora biked at 20 mi/h through be x miles and the time it took her to bike through that distance be t hours at 20 mi/h

Then, the rest of the distance that she biked at 14 mi/h is (112 - x) miles

And the time she spent biking at 14 mi/h the rest of the distance = (6.5 - t) hours

Her first biking speed = 20 mph = 20 miles/hour

Speed = distance/time

20 = x/t

x = 20 t (eqn 1)

Her second biking speed = 14 mph = 14 miles/hour

14 = (112 - x)/(6.5 - t)

112 - x = 14 (6.5 - t)

112 - x = 91 - 14t (eqn 2)

Substitute for x in (eqn 2)

112 - 20t = 91 - 14t

20t - 14t = 112 - 91

6t = 21

t = 3.5 hours

x = 20t = 20 × 3.5 = 70 miles.

(112 - x) = 112 - 70 = 42 miles

(6.5 - t) = 6.5 - 3.5 = 3 hours

Meaning that she travelled at 20 mi/h for 3.5 hours.
