Consider a sample of gas in a container on a comfortable spring day in chicago, il. the celsius temperature suddenly doubles, an
Vinil7 [7]

To solve this problem, we must first assume that the gas acts like an ideal gas so that we can use the ideal gas equation:

 P V = n R T

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant and T is the absolute temperature

 

Assuming that the number of moles is constant, then we can write all the variables in the left side:

P V / T = k            where k is a constant (n times R)

 

Equating two conditions or two states:

P1 V1 / T1 = P2 V2 / T2

We are given that V2 = 2 V1 therefore

P1 V1 T2 = P2 (2V1) T1

P1 T2 = 2 P2 T1

 

Additionally we are given that the temperature in Celsius is doubled, however in the formula we use the absolute temperature in Kelvin, therefore:

T1 (K) = T1 + 273.15

T2 (K) = 2T1 + 273.15

and P1 = 12 atm

 

Substituting:

<span>12 (2T1 + 273.15)  = 2 P2 (T1 + 273.15)</span>

P2 = 6 (2T1 + 273.15) / (T1 + 273.15)

 

Assuming that a nice spring day in Chicago has a temperature of 15 Celsius, therefore:

P2 = 6 (2*15 + 273.15) / (15 + 273.15)

<span>P2 = 6.312 atm</span>

Anna71 [15]

(D) The gravitational force between the astronaut and the asteroid.

Reason :

All the other forces given in the options, except (D), doesn't account for the motion of the astronaut. They are the forces that act between nucleons or atoms and neither of them accounts for an objects motion.

Explain the relationship between temperature, energy, and motion of particles in an object.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body.

Energy is the ability to do work by a body. They are of two forms, potential and kinetic energy. Potential energy is due to the position of a body whereas kinetic energy is due to the motion of a body.

Motion is the change in position of a body with time.

Temperature, energy and motion are all related.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is concerned about the motion particles. This form of energy results from heat changes in a body which causes temperature differences.

When a body is heat and changes temperature, the particles begins to vibrate as they gain, thermal energy, a form of kinetic energy. At a point, the particles will break lose and set in motion.
