consider a sample of gas in a container on a comfortable spring day. the Celsius temperature suddenly doubles, and you transfer

the gas to a container with twice the volume of the first container. If the original pressure was 12 atm, what is a good estimate for the new pressure?

Answer:

6.6 atm

Explanation:

Using the general gas law

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Let P₂ be the new pressure

So, P₂ = P₁V₁T₂/V₂T₁

Since V₂ = 2V₁ , P₁ = 12 atm and T₁ = 273 + t where t = temperature in Celsius

T₂ = 273 + 2t (since its Celsius temperature doubles).

Substituting these values into the equation for P₂, we have

P₂ = P₁V₁(273 + 2t)/2V₁(273 + t)

P₂ = 12(273 + 2t)/[2(273 + t)]

P₂ = 6(273 + 2t)/(273 + t)]

assume t = 30 °C on a comfortable spring day

P₂ = 6(273 + 2(30))/(273 + 30)]

P₂ = 6(273 + 60))/(273 + 30)]

P₂ = 6(333))/(303)]

P₂ = 6.6 atm

A wheel accelerates from rest to 34.7 rad/s at a rate of 47.0 rad/s^2. Through what angle (in radians) did the wheel turn while
dem82 [27]

12.8 rad

Explanation:

The angular displacement \theta through which the wheel turned can be determined from the equation below:

\omega^2 = \omega_0^2 + 2\alpha\theta (1)

where

\omega_0 = 0

\omega = 34.7\:\text{rad/s}

\alpha = 47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2

Using these values, we can solve for \theta from Eqn(1) as follows:

2\alpha\theta = \omega^2 - \omega_0^2

or

\theta = \dfrac{\omega^2 - \omega_0^2}{2\alpha}

\:\:\:\:= \dfrac{(34.7\:\text{rad/s})^2 - 0}{2(47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:= 12.8\:\text{rad}

Ashkon throws a basketball across the court to his teammate. The ball has 57 J of potential energy and 61 J of kinetic energy. W
Gwar [14]
The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.
