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.

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. How much work did you do ?

olga55 [171]

The answer is 125 Joules

The first thing to take note of is the work equation: W=F×D

Since we already have our force and our distance that will help make this problem easier.

So, W=25*5

W=125

Therefore, our answer is 125 Joules since work is measured in joules

Hope this helped!! :)

Barnard’s Star is a red dwarf. It is located 5.9 light years from Earth. (One light year is the same as 9.46 trillion kilometers

mote1985 [20]

A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46 trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.

A 15 kg bucket of water is suspended by a very light ropewrapped around a solid uniform cylinder 0.300 m in diamter withmass 12.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$T = 42 N$

Part b)

$v_f = 11.8 m/s$

Part c)

$t = 1.7 s$

Part d)

$F = 159.7 N$

Explanation:

Part a)

While bucket is falling downwards we have force equation of the bucket given as

$mg - T = ma$

for uniform cylinder we will have

$TR = I\alpha$

so we have

$T = \frac{1}{2}MR^2(\frac{a}{R^2})$

$T = \frac{1}{2}Ma$

now we have

$mg = (\frac{M}{2} + m)a$

$a = \frac{mg}{(\frac{M}{2} + m)}$

$a = \frac{15 \times 9.81}{(6 + 15)}$

$a = 7 m/s^2$

now we have

$T = \frac{12 \times 7}{2}$

$T = 42 N$

Part b)

speed of the bucket can be found using kinematics

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(7)(10)$

$v_f = 11.8 m/s$

Part c)

now in order to find the time of fall we can use another equation

$v_f - v_i = at$

$11.8 - 0 = 7 t$

$t = 1.7 s$

Part d)

as we know that cylinder is at rest and not moving downwards

so here we can use force balance

$F = T + Mg$

$F = 42 + (12 \times 9.81)$

$F = 159.7 N$
