Explain why pressure is not proportional to volume if the temperature changes?

1 answer:

8 0

When temperature increases the particles of the substance move further away from each other and the substance expands, leading to an increase in volume. Since the particles are further away from each other pressure is reduced and that's why pressure is not proportional to volume when temperature changes.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

T₂ =602 °C

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 227°C =227+273 K

T₁ =500 k

Gauge pressure at condition 1 given = 100 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 1 will be

P₁ = 100 + 100 KPa

P₁ =200 KPa

Gauge pressure at condition 2 given = 250 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 2 will be

P₂ = 250 + 100 KPa

P₂ =350 KPa

The temperature at condition 2 = T₂

We know that

$\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=T_1\times \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=500\times \dfrac{350}{200}\ K\\$

T₂ = 875 K

T₂ =875- 273 °C

T₂ =602 °C

nydimaria [60]

Answer: If there is a higher friction, the opposition force is higher so that it can reduce our speed. So, a factor that affects friction is the roughness or smoothness of the surface of the object. In comparison of the table with the fabric, the fabric will have a more opposition force. As the surface of the fabric is usually rougher than the surface of a smooth table. As there is more friction on a fabric, we will feel more opposition force on our finger tip.

1. What type of wave is sound? Does sound need a medium (substance) to travel through?

denpristay [2]

Answer:

1. What type of wave is sound?

2.Does sound need a medium to travel through?

3. What are the properties of sound waves?

Explanation:

1. The type of waves sound are is mechanical waves.

2. Sound needs a solid, liquid or gas (material medium) to travel through.

3. I believe they are wavelength, amplitude, frequency, time period and velocity.

I apologize if it is incorrect-

I hope it helps! Have a great day!

A ball is thrown vertically upward, which is the positive direction. A little later, it returns to its point of release. The bal

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is <u>39.2 m/s in the upward direction.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Upward direction is positive. So, downward direction is negative.

Tota time the ball remains in air (t) = 8.0 s

Net displacement of the ball (S) = Final position - Initial position = 0 m

Acceleration of the ball is due to gravity. So, $a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2$ (Acting down)

Now, let the initial velocity be 'u' m/s.

From Newton's equation of motion, we have:

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

$0=8u-0.5\times 9.8\times 8^2\\\\8u=4.9\times 64\\\\u=\frac{4.9\times 64}{8}\\\\u=4.9\times 8=39.2\ m/s$

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 39.2 m/s in the upward direction.
