A gas in a cylinder with a moveable piston has an initial volume of 89.2 ml . if we heat the gas from 35 âc to 153 âc, what is i

ts final volume (in ml)? express the volume to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

<span>Use Charles' Law:
v1/T1 = v2/T2
88.2/(273+35) = v2/(273+155)
where v2 is the new volume.

I hope this helps!!!</span>

Winds are named based on different factors. How are winds usually named?

eduard

Winds are named based on which compass direction the wind is blowing. For example some common ones are NE or N or SE or SW. NE stands for Northeast, N for North, SE for South East and SW for Southwest.

Answer:

Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred in a unit of time. Power is increased if work is done faster or energy is transferred in less time.

If two vectors are perpendicular to each other, how should you add them?

Aleksandr [31]

Let us consider two vectors A and B.

As per the question, the two vectors are perpendicular to each other.

Hence the angle between them $\theta =90 degree$

We are asked to calculate the resultant of these two vectors.

As per parallelogram law of vector addition, the resultant of two vectors are-

$R=\sqrt{A^{2}+ B^{2}+2ABcos\theta$

$=\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}+2AB*cos90}$ [cos90=0]

$=\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}$

This is the way by which we can add two perpendicular vectors.

7) T F If two forces of equal magnitude act on an object that is hinged at a pivot, the force acting farther from the pivot must

saul85 [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The torque exerted by a force is given by:

$\tau=Fd sin \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the pivot

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of F and d

We see that the magnitude of the torque depends on 3 factors. In this problem, we have 2 forces of equal magnitude (so, equal F). Moreover, one of the forces (let's call it force 1) acts farther from the pivot than force 2, so we have

$d_1 > d_2$

However, this does not mean that force 1 produces a greater torque. In fact, it also depends on the angle at which the force is applied. For instance, if the first force is applied parallel to d, then we have

$\theta_1 =0\\sin \theta=0$

and the torque produced by this force would be zero.

So, the statement is false.

The desert sand is very hot during the day and very cold at night. What does this tell you about its specific heat capacity?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: The specific heat capacity is very low.

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a body is defined as the heat energy required by a body to cause a unit change in its temperature. The value is over low that is why it is easier for the desert sand to easily get very hot during the day. Conversely, it is very easy for the desert sand to lose it's heat a cool breeze pass over it in the night making it very cold in the night. This value also defines how long the desert sand can retain heat. Therefore, the desert sand has a low specific heat capacity.
