You just calibrated a constant volume gas thermometer. The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 240.0 kPa when the ther

mometer is in contact with boiling water. The boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure. What is the temperature of the thermometer, when it reads a pressure of 431.0 kPa?

Answer:

396.97°C

Explanation:

Charles' Law explains that at constant volume, the pressure of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin).

P₁ ∝ T₁

P₁ = kT₁

k = constant of proportionality

(P₁/T₁) = (P₂/T₂)

P₁ = 240.0 kPa

T₁ = Boiling point of water = 100°C = 373.15 K

P₂ = 431.0 kPa

T₂ = ?

(240/373.15) = (431/T₂)

T₂ = (431 × 373.15) ÷ 240

T₂ = 670.12 K

T₂ = 396.97°C

Hope this Helps!!!

How do sea surface temperatures affect evaporation rate?
kotegsom [21]
<span>Answer: The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>

How does the ocean influence climate?
Mazyrski [523]
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

At what wavelength would a star radiate the greatest amount of energy if the star has a surface temperature of 60,000 K?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

Explanation:

We have,

The surface temperature of the star is 60,000 K

It is required to find the wavelength of a star that radiated greatest amount of energy. Wein's displacement law gives the relation between wavelength and temperature such that :

\lambda T=2.89\times 10^{-3}

Here,

\lambda = wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{2.89\times 10^{-3}}{60000}\\\\\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

So, the wavelength of the star is 4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m.
