A gas sample occupies 4.2 L at a pressure of 101 kPa. What volume will it occupy if the pressure is increased to 235 kPa?

For this we want to use Boyle's Law. Boyle’s law states that the pressure and volume of a fixed quantity of a gas are inversely proportional under constant temperature conditions. The formula for this is P1V1 = P2V2. We want to solve this out so it equals V2 (Volume 2). So P1V1 / P2 = V2. Then plug in your values for the variables. So (101)(4.2) / 235 = V2; so 424.2 / 235 = V2. The final volume equals 1.81. I hope this helps, If not I am very sorry.

Answer: v = 2.24 m/s

Explanation: The Law of Conservation of Energy states that total energy is constant in any process and, it cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed.

So, in the toy launcher, the energy of the compressed spring, called Elastic Potential Energy (PE), transforms into the movement of the plastic sphere, called Kinetic Energy (KE). Since total energy must be constant:

$KE_{i}+PE_{i}=KE_{f}+PE_{f}$

where the terms with subscript i are related to the initial of the process and the terms with subscript f relates to the final process.

The equation is calculated as:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}+0=0+\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}50(0.1)^{2}=\frac{1}{2}(0.1)v^{2}$

$v^{2}=\frac{50(0.1)^{2}}{0.1}$

$v=\sqrt{50(0.1)}$

$v=\sqrt{5}$

v = 2.24

The maximum speed the plastic sphere will be launched is 2.24 m/s.

Why, according to thoreau, are people better off being poor than wealthy?

goldenfox [79]

By being poor, you can become better because you can cultivate a better personality. Things, items, phones distract you & if you're poor, then you're more inclined to be productive & have more in a sense.
