In the Boyle’s law experiment, what was used to increase the pressure on the air (gas)?
1 answer:
Answer:
Volume.
Explanation:
Boyle’s law experiment :
This is also known as Mariotte's law or in the other words it is also known as Boyle–Mariotte law.
This law tell us about the variation of gas pressure when the volume of the gas changes at the constant temperature.According to this law the abslute pressure is inversely proportional to the volume .
We can say that
Where P=Pressure
V=Volume
PV = K
K=Constant
When volume decrease then the pressure of the gas will increase.
That is why the answer is "Volume".

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion kinematic equations for which acceleration (in this case gravity) is described as the change in velocity in an instant of time. Subsequently through the energy conservation equations we will find the net height.
Let's start considering that the time is 1 second, therefore,
Now the acceleration would be given as
Since the final speed is zero, and the time elapsed to reach the height is 0.5 seconds (half of the entire route) we will have that the initial speed can be expressed in terms of gravity as
Now for energy conservation, the potential energy must be equal to the kinetic energy, therefore,
PE = KE
Replacing the previous value found,
Therefore the hegiht above the windows that the pot rises is 1.225m
