Assuming the gas behaves ideally,
PV/T = constant. P will also be constant in this giving us:
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
40/320 = 20/T₂
T₂ = 160 K
The answer is A.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas V_1= 40.0L

Initial temperature of gas T_1= 320 K

Final volume of the gas V_2= 20.0L

Final temperature of the gas = T_2

Applying Charles' Law:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

T_2=\frac{V_2\times T_1}{V_1}=\frac{20.0L\times 320 K}{40.0L}=160K

The temperature of the gas when volume of the gas is 20.0 L is 160 K.Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Stop lamps must be visible within____ to the rear
Charra [1.4K]
The answer is 300 feet. The stop lamp or lamps on the rear of a vehicle must show a red light that is set in motion upon application of the service or foot brake and, in a vehicle manufactured or assembled on or after January 1, 1964, must be visible from a distance of not less than 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight. Take note, if the vehicle is manufactured or assembled January 1, 1964, the stop lamp or lamps must be visible from a distance of not less than 100 feet. Also, the stop lamp may be combined with one or more other rear lamps.

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 7.0 nC. Using insulatin
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.

A college student is working on her physics homework in her dorm room. Her room contains a total of 6.0 x 10^26 gas molecules. A
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Temperature, T = 3.62 kelvin

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total number of gas molecules, N=6\times 10^{26}

Her body is converting chemical energy into thermal energy at a rate of 125 W, P = 125 W

Time taken, t = 6 min = 360 s

Energy of a gas molecules is given by :

\Delta E =\dfrac{3}{2}NkT

T=\dfrac{2E}{3Nk}, k is Boltzmann constant

T=\dfrac{2\times P\times t}{3Nk}

T=\dfrac{2\times 125\times 360}{3\times 6\times 10^{26}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}}

T = 3.62 K

So, the temperature increases by 3.62 kelvin. Hence, this is the required solution.
