A sample of a gas has a volume of 639 cm3 when the pressure is 75.9 kPa. What is the volume of the gas when the pressure is incr

const2013 [10]

Answer:

$388 cm^3$

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at constant temperature, the product between pressure and volume remains constant:

$pV=const.$

which can also be rewritten as

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

In our case, we have:

$p_1 = 75.9 kPa$ is the initial pressure

$V_1 = 639 cm^3$ is the initial volume

$p_2 = 125 kPa$ is the final pressure

Solving for V2, we find the final volume:

$v_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(75.9)(639)}{125}=388 cm^3$

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min. Work out the difference be

Serggg [28]

Explanation:

We have,

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min.

1 mile = 1.6 km

45 miles = 72.42 km

74 miles = 119.0 km

1 hour 15 min means 1.25 hours

Average speed of Ajoba is :

$v_1=\dfrac{72.42 }{2.5}=28.96\ km/h$

Average speed of Prav,

$v_2=\dfrac{119}{1.25}=95.2\ km/h$

Difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is :

$v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=95.2-28.96\\\\v=66.24\ km/h$

So, the difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is 66.24 km/h.

An archer shoots an arrow with a velocity of 45.0m/s at an angle of 50.0degrees with the horizontal.An assistant standing on the

garri49 [273]

Answer:

a) u = 30.29 m/s

b) t = 2.09 s

Explanation:

given,

velocity = 45 m/s

angle (θ) = 50°

horizontal velocity = 45 cos 50°

time taken to reach 150 m.

times = $\dfrac{150}{45 cos 50^0}$

t = 5.19 s

a) height of arrow

$s = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$s = v sin \theta \times t+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$s = 45 sin 50^0 \times 5.19 -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 5.19^2$

s = 46.78 m

v² - u² = 2 g s

u² = 2 × 9.81 × 46.78

u = 30.29 m/s

b) time taken by the apple = $\dfrac{u}{g}=\dfrac{30.29}{9.81}$

= 3.09 s

time after which it has to be thrown = 5.19-3.09 = 2.1 s

The potential difference in a simple circuit is 2 v and the resistance is 2 ω . what current flows in the circuit? answer in uni

balandron [24]

Hey

Potential Difference given is : 2V

Resistance is : 2 ohms

By Ohm's Law, one can easily utilize the relation :

$v = ir$

Where, { v , i , r } are the potential difference, current and Resistance Respectively.

Hence,
$i = \frac{v}{r} = \frac{2}{2} = 1a$

Hence, the Current is 1 Ampere
