A science class puts a balloon containing 1.25 l of air at 101 kpa into a bell jar. using an air pump, the class removes some of
storchak [24]
The first thing you should know in this case is the following definition:
 PV = nRT
 Then, as the temperature is constant, then:
 PV = k
 Then, we have two states:
 P1V1 = k
 P2V2 = k
 We can then equalize both equations:
 P1V1 = P2V2
 Substituting the values:
 (1.25) * (101) = (2.25) * (P2)
 Clearing P2:
 P2 = ((1.25) * (101)) /(2.25)=56.11Kpa
 answer:
 the new pressure inside the jar is 56.11Kpa

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

68.5 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.74 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0) (3.74) + ½ (9.8) (3.74)²

Δy = 68.5

The egg fell 68.5 meters.

An electron is released form rest in a region of space where a uniform electric field is present. Joanna claims that its kinetic
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.
