Answer:

According to Boyle's law, if you decrease the volume of a container of gas and hold the temperature constant, the pressure of the gas will increase. According to Charles's law, the volume of a gas increases with increasing temperature, as long as pressure does not change.

Answer:

simply use ideal gas equation

pv=mrt

p = pressure,v =volume, T =temperature

t= constant

pv =constant

p = k/v

p is inversely proportional to v,

volume decrease pressure increase

a person's lung pressure as recorded by a mercury manometer is 90 mm Hg.Express this pressure in SI units​
Sidana [21]

Answer:

11970 pa

Explanation:

A millimetre of mercury is a manometric unit of pressure, formerly defined as the extra pressure generated by a column of mercury one millimetre high, and currently defined as exactly 133.322387415 pascals so if 1 mmHg is 133 pa  90mmHg is 11970 aprox

Straight line distance between their home and the store can be solve using cosine law. first is solve the angle which is180 - 45 = 135 degree
C^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab cos(135)c^2 = 5^2 + 5^2 - 2(5)(5) cos(135)c^2 = 85.35c = 9.24 km is the straight line distance between their home and the store

A balloon is rising vertically upwards at a velocity of 10m/s. When it is at a height of 45m from the ground, a parachute bails
harina [27]

(a) 30.9 m

Let's analyze the motion of the parachutist. Its vertical position above the ground is given by

y=h+ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 45 m is the initial height

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

Substituting t=3 s , we find the height of the parachutist when it opens the parachute:

y=45 m+(10 m/s)(3 s)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)^2=30.9 m

(b) 44.1 m

Here we have to find first the height of the balloon 3 seconds after the parachutist has jumped off from it. The vertical position of the balloon is given by

y = h + ut

where

h = 45 m is the initial height

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

Substituting t = 3 s, we find

y = 45 m + (10 m/s)(3 s) = 75 m

So the distance between the balloon and the parachutist after 3 s is

d = 75 m - 30.9 m = 44.1 m

(c) 8.2 m/s downward

The velocity of the parachutist at the moment he opens the parachute is:

v = u +gt

where

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

Substituting t = 3 s,

v = 10 m/s + (-9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)= -19.4 m/s

where the negative sign means it is downward

After t=3 s, the parachutist open the parachute and it starts moving with a deceleration of

a =+5 m/s^2

where we put a positive sign since this time the acceleration is upward.

The total distance he still has to cover till the ground is

d = 30.9 m

So we can find the final velocity by using

v^2-u^2 = 2ad

where this time we have u = 19.4 m/s as initial velocity. Taking the downward direction as positive, the deceleration must be considered as negative:

a = -5 m/s^2

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2 +2ad}=\sqrt{(19.4 m/s)^2+2(-5 m/s^2)(30.9 m)}=8.2 m/s

(d) 5.24 s

We can find the duration of the second part of the motion of the parachutist (after he has opened the parachute) by using

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

a = -5 m/s^2 is the deceleration

v = 8.2 m/s is the final velocity

u = 19.4 m/s is the initial velocity

t is the time

Solving for t, we find

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{8.2 m/s-19.4 m/s}{-5 m/s^2}=2.24 s

And added to the 3 seconds between the instant of the jump and the moment he opens the parachute, the total time is

t = 3 s + 2.24 s = 5.24 s

A frictionless piston-cylinder device contains 4.5 kg of nitrogen at 110 kPa and 200 K. Nitrogen is now compressed slowly accord
pochemuha

Answer:

427.392 kJ

Explanation:

m = Mass of gas = 4.5 kg

Initial temperature = 200 K

Final temperature = 360 K

R = Mass specific gas constant = 296.8 J/kgK

\gamma = Specific heat ratio = 1.5

Work done for a polytropic process is given by

W=\frac{mR\Delta T}{1-\gamma}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{4.5\times 296.8(360-200)}{1-1.5}\\\Rightarrow W=-427392\ J\\\Rightarrow W=-427.392\ kJ

The work input during the process is -427.392 kJ
