Answer:

lim_{V \to 0^{+}} P = k\lim_{V \to 0^{+}} \frac{1}{V} =\infty

This limit is not defined.

Explanation:

We need to remember first this law

The Boyle's law states that under a constant temperature when the pressure is inversely proportion to the volume.

So that means: P \propto \frac{1}{V}

And we can put an equal if we do this:

P = \frac{k}{V} where k is the proportional constant.

For this case we want to find the following limit:

lim_{V \to 0^{+}} P = \lim_{V \to 0^{+}} \frac{k}{V}

And using properties of limits we have:

lim_{V \to 0^{+}} P = k\lim_{V \to 0^{+}} \frac{1}{V}

So for this case this limit tend to infinity since we are dividing a constant by a very low number positive near to 0.

So then we can conclude that:

lim_{V \to 0^{+}} P = k\lim_{V \to 0^{+}} \frac{1}{V} =\infty

This limit is not defined.

Interpretation: we are seeing that if the volume decrease considerable with the temperature constant by the inverse relation between P and V, the value of P increases to with no limit.

A car travels 200km in 3.0 hours. Determine the average velocity of the car
Masja [62]

Answer:

<h2>66.67 km/hr</h2>

Explanation:

The average velocity of the car can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{d}{t }  \\

d is the distance

t is the time taken

From the question we have

a =  \frac{200}{3}  \\  = 66.66666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>66.67 km/hr</h3>

Hope this helps you

Describe two reasons why an alpha particle is less penetrating than a beta or gamma particle.
uysha [10]
Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.

Work and Power Practice Calculations
Elza [17]

Answer:

1. W = F d = 20 N * 6 m = 120 J

2. F = W / d = 60 J / 2 m = 30 N

3. d = W / F = 350 J / 85 N = 4.12 m

4. P = W / t = F d / t = 45 N * 9 m / 10 s = 40.5 Watts

5. W = P t = 500 W * 120 sec = 60,000 J

6. t = W / P = 550 J / 310 W = 1.77 sec
