Explain why the boiling point of a liquid varies with atmospheric pressure

Physics

OLEGan [10]3 years ago
5 0
The boiling point of water, or any liquid, varies according to the surrounding atmospheric pressure. A liquid boils, or begins turning to vapor, when its internal vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.

Please help me, this is a physics test.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a = 2 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must make it clear that the starting point when the time is equal to zero, the velocity is 5 [m/s] and when three seconds have passed the velocity is 11 [m/s], this point is the final point or the final velocity.

We can use the following equation.

v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t\\

where:

Vf = final velocity = 11 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 3 [s]

11 = 5 + a*3\\6=3*a\\a= 2[m/s^{2} ]

a child's toy consists of a piece of plastic attached to a spring. the spring is compressed against the floor a distance of 2.0
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

1.7N

Explanation:

Force = kx

Where x = spring compression and

K = spring constant

K =85N/m

x = 2.0cm / 100

= 0.02m

Force = 85 x 0.02

= 1.7N

Determine the amount of work done on an ideal gas as it is heated in an enclosed thermally insulated cylinder topped with a free
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)

Explanation:

Let's use the first law of thermodynamics

           ΔE = Q + W

in this case the cylinder is insulated, so there is no heat transfer

           ΔE = W

internal energy can be related to the change in temperature

            ΔE = 3/2 n K ΔT

we substitute

           3/2 n (T₂-T₁) = W

as the work is on the gas it is negative

            W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)
