Answer:

p_2=2639.4kPa

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we notice a relationship between the volume and pressure of a gas, accounting for the Boyle's law which has the following form:

p_1V_1=p_2V_2

In this case, we asked to find the pressure after the pump is pushed down, it means p_2 as shown below:

p_2=\frac{p_1V_1}{V_2} =\frac{252mL*995kPa}{95.0mL}\\ \\p_2=2639.4kPa

Such pressure increase accounts for a compression process at which the volume is decreased at the same time.

Best regards.

Answer:

The new pressure of the pump is 26.05 atm or 2639.4 kPa

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the bicycle tire pump = 252 mL = 0.252 L

Pressure of air = 995 kPa = 9.81989 atm

The volume of the pump is reduced to 95.0 mL = 0.095 L

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

V1*P1 = V2*P2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume of the bicycle tire pump = 0.252 L

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the pump = 9.81989 atm = 995 kPa

⇒with V2 = the reduced volume of the pump = 0.095 L

⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

0.252 L * 9.81989 atm = 0.095 L * P2

P2 = 26.05 atm

The new pressure is 26.05 atm

OR

0.252 L * 995 = 0.095 L * P2

P2 = 2639.4 kPa

The new pressure of the pump is 26.05 atm or 2639.4 kPa

const2013 [10]
The question is missing the data sets.

This is the complete question:

A single penny has a mass of 2.5 g. Abbie and James each measure the mass of a penny multiple times. Which statement about these data sets is true? 

O Abbie's measurements are both more accurate and more precise than James'.

O Abbie's measurements are more accurate, but less precise, than James'. 

O Abbie's measurements are more precise, but less accurate, than James'. 

O Abbie’s measurements are both less accurate and less precise than James'. 

Penny masses (g)

Abbie’s data                                        

2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6 

James’ data


2.4, 3.0, 3.3, 2.2, 2.9, 3.8, 2.9

Answer: first option, Abbie's measurements are both more accurate and more precise than James'.

Explanation:


1) To answer this question, you first must understand the difference between precision and accuracy.

<span>Accuracy is how close the data are to the true or accepted value.
</span>

<span>Precision is how close are the data among them, this is the reproducibility of the values.</span>

Then, you can measure the accuracy by comparing the means (averages) with the actual mass of a penny 2.5 g.

And you measure the precision by comparing a measure of spread, as it can be the standard deviation.

2) These are the calculations:

Abbie’s data                      
                 
Average: ∑ of the values / number of values 

Average = [2.5 + 2.4 + 2.3 + 2.4 + 2.5 + 2.6 + 2.6 ] / 7 = 2.47 ≈ 2.5

Standard deviation: √  [ ∑ (x - mean)² / (n - 1) ] = 0.11


James’ data


Average = [2.4 + 3.0 + 3.3 + 2.2 + 2.9 + 3.8 + 2.9] / 7 = 2.56 ≈ 2.6


Standard deviation = 0.53

3) Conclusions:

1) The average of Abbie's data are closer to the accepted value 2.5g, so they are more accurate.

2) The standard deviation of Abbie's data is smaller than that of Jame's data, so the Abbie's data are more precise.
