Answer:

25L

Explanation:

The problem can be solved using Boyle's law for the volume and pressure of a gas at constant temperature:

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}

Where the quantities with sub-index 1 are the initial conditions for the gas and the quantities with sub-index 2 are for the final conditions of the gas.

We want to know the initial volume, this is:

V_{1}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{P_{1}}

we also know from the problem that

P_{1}=4atm\\P_{2}=0.2atm\\V_{2}=500L

Thus, the initial volume V1 is:

V_{1}=\frac{0.2atm*500L}{4atm}

V_{1}=25L

Using the combined gas law of P1V1=P2V2 and plug it in you get (4)V1 for you don't have initial volume = (0.2)(500) --> 4V1=100, divide by the coefficient on both sides and you get V1=25

What is the change all living things undergo as the grow
Vladimir [108]
All of the change that living things undergo as they grow is called development. That is the name when the changes are within a single unit and over a period of time as short as a lifetime. When the change occurs over thousands of years then it's called evolution.

A helium nucleus is composed of two protons (positively charged) and two neutrons (charge neutral). The distance between the two
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Using the given values

F = K q^2 / r^2 = 9 * 10E9 * (1.6 * E-19)^2 / (5.18 * E-15)^2 N

E = 9 * 1.6^2 / 5.18^2 * 10 = 8.5 N

Recall specific heat of water is 4186 j/kg/C. Find the specific heat of sample.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Shown by explanation;

Explanation:

The heat of the sample = mass ×specific heat capacity of the sample × temperature change(∆T)

Assumption;I assume the mass of the samples are : 109g and 192g

∆T= 30.1-21=8.9°c.

The heat of the samples are for 109g are:

0.109 × 4186 × 8.9 =4060.84J

For 0.192g are;

∆T= 67-30.1-=36.9°c

0.192 × 4186×36.9=29656.97J

In a Little League baseball game, the 145 g ball enters the strike zone with a speed of 17.0 m/s . The batter hits the ball, and
VMariaS [17]

Hi there!

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Where:

m = mass of object (kg)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

Begin by converting grams to kilograms:

1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg

Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.

I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns

The magnitude is the absolute value, so:

|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns
