Answer is: <span>the pressure of the gas is 9,2 atm.
</span>p₁ = 4,0 atm.
T₁ = 300 K.
V₁ = 5,5 L.
p₂ = ?
T₂ = 250 K.
V₂ = 2,0 L.
Use combined gas law - the volume of amount of gas is proportional to the ratio of its Kelvin temperature and its pressure.<span>
</span>p₁V₁/T₁ = p₂V₂/T₂.
4 atm · 5,5 L ÷ 300 K = p₂ · 2,0 L ÷ 250 K.
0,0733 = 0,008p₂.
p₂ = 9,2 atm.
The energy transformations are similar because they result into radiant energy.
As for the lamp, Electrical energy is transformed into light when the filament
or mercury vapor glows on passage of current.
The fire- chemical energy is turned to light energy during the combustion of carbon. Both products comprise of ultraviolet radiation which is a form of radiant energy.
The expected speed is v = 85.5 km/h
v = 85.5 km/h = (85.5 km/h)*(0.2778 (m/s)/(km/h)) = 23.75 m/s
If there is an uncertainty of 2 meters in measuring the position, then within a 1-second time interval:
The lower measurement for the speed is v₁ = 21.75 m/s,
The upper measurement for the speed is v₂ = 25.75 m/s.
The range of variation is
Δv = v₂ - v₁ = 4 m/s
The uncertainty in measuring the speed is
Δv/v = 4/23.75 = 0.1684 = 16.84%
Answer: 16.8%
