Answer:
12 ml
Explanation:
The initial volume in the cylinder is 20 ml
adding the rock adds volume to the cylinder
the new volume is 32 ml .....the increase in volume is the volume of the rock : 32 - 20 = 12 ml volume of rock
Answer:
420 L
Explanation:
Applying Boyle's Law,
PV = P'V'.................... Equation 1
Where P = Initial pressure, P' = Final pressure, V = Initial volume, V' = Final volume.
make V' the subject of the equation
V' = PV/P'.................... Equation 2
From the question,
Given: P = 720 mmHg, V = 350 L, P' = 600 mmHg
Substitute these values into equation 2
V' = (720×350)/600
V' = 252000/600
V' = 420 L
Answer:
5694000 min
Explanation:
Let's suppose the average American watches 4 hours of TV every day. First, we will calculate how many minutes they watch per day. We will use the conversion factor 1 h = 60 min.
(4 h/day) × (60 min/1 h) = 240 min/day
They watch 240 minutes of TV per day. Now, let's calculate how many minutes they watch per year. We will use the conversion factor 1 year = 365 day.
240 min/day × (365 day/year) = 87600 min/year
They watch 87600 min/year. Finally, let's calculate how many minutes they spend watching TV in 65 years.
87600 min/year × 65 year = 5694000 min
Answer:
Height above a surface
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.
It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.
It is given mathematically as:
P. E. = m*g*h
where m = mass of the body
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height above a surface
m*g represents the weight of the object.
Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.
