Could someone please explain to me Archimede's principle without using the term displace (or at least explaining what it means)?

Does this help?

When an object is immersed in a fluid (in this case water, but may include both liquids and gases) the fluid exerts an upward force on the object which is called buoyancy force or <span>up-thrust.  Archimedes’ Principle states that the buoyant force (upward push or force) applied to an object is equal to the weight of the fluid that the object takes the space of by that object.  Thus when an object is placed in water the rise in the water level is dictated by the mass of that object.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>So for example if you fill a bucket with water and you drop a stone in that bucket, if you measure the weight of the water that overflows from the bucket due to the stone being dropped into the bucket is equivalent to the pushing force that the water has on the stone (as the stone drops to the bottom of the bucket the water is pushing it to stay afloat but the rock is more dense than water and as such its downthrust exceeds water's upthrust).</span>

A cylindrical tank has a tight-fitting piston that allows the volume of the tank to be changed. The tank originally contains 0.1
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

0.10013 atm

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's Law,

P'V' = PV................... Equation 1

Where P' = Initial pressure of air, V' = Initial volume of air, P = Final pressure of air, V = Final volume of air.

make P the subject of the equation

P = P'V'/V..................... Equation 2

Given: P' = 0.355 atm, V'  0.110 m³, V = 0.390 m³

Substitute into equation 2

P = 0.355(0.11)/0.39

P = 0.10013 atm.

The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction matter is not created or destroyed true or false
lisov135 [29]
True it only changes form. Like when water evaporates goes from liquid to a gas and is not destroyed.

Helium gas is compressed by an adiabatic compressor from an initial state of 14 psia and 50°F to a final temperature of 320°F in
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The value is  P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The initial pressure is  P_1 = 14\  psla

  The initial temperature is  T_1 =  50 \ F = (50 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 = 283  \  K

   The final temperature is  T_2 =  320 \ F = (320 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 =433  \  K

Generally the equation for adiabatic process is mathematically represented as

         PT^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  Constant

=>      P_1T_1^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  P_2T_2^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} }

Generally for a monoatomic gas  \gamma =  \frac{5}{3}

So

           14 * 283^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} } =P_2 * 433^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} }

=>       14 * 283^{-2.5} =P_2 * 433^{-2.5}

=>       P_2 = 40.54 \ psla
