Answer:

Increase in temperature

Increase in pressure

Explanation:

For the rate of collisions to increase, It can happen in various ways

1. The gasses can be made to move faster: This can be done by increasing their temperature. An increase in the temperature of the gases directly relates to a corresponding increase in their kinetic energy. This means that the molecules of the gases can move with a greater velocity, which will increase collision rates.

2. The volume of the container can be reduced: Consider this; If the container is made smaller, the molecules of the gases will have less space to move about. This means that they will be bumping into the walls of the container more frequently. This reduction in volume leads to an increase in the pressure of the gas. This is exactly what happens in a piston-cylinder assembly

A car slid off an icy 10m bridge and landed 12m away from the bridge. How much time was the car in the air? (Hunt: Projectile)
Contact [7]

You will use the height of the bridge from the ground.

Solution:

Formula to be used is y=Viy(t)+g(t^2)/2

Where:

Vi=initial velocity which is 0 m/s

 y=10 m

Gravitational acceleration or g =9.8m/s^2

T= time you need

Substitute all the given to the formula

10m=(0m/s)(t)+(9.8m/s^2)(t^2)/2

10mx2=9.8m/s^2(t^2)

Now isolate the variable you want to find which is T or time

10mx2/9.8m/s^2=t^2

20m/9.8m/s^2=t^2

Square root of 2.04= square root of t^2

T=1.43 secs

The answer is 1.43 seconds
