The volume of a gas is reduced from 4 l to 0.5 l while the temperature is held constant. How does the gas pressure change?

Answer:

The pressure increases by a factor 8

Explanation:

For a gas held at constant temperature, Boyle's law can be applied. It states that the product of the gas pressure and the gas volume is constant, so we can write:

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

where

p_1 is the initial pressure

p_2 is the final pressure

V_1 is the initial volume

V_2 is the final volume

For the gas in this problem, the volume is reduced from

V_1 = 4 L

to

V_2 = 0.5 L

so we can rewrite the equation as

\frac{p_2}{p_1}=\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{4 L}{0.5 L}=8

this means that the pressure of the gas will increase by a factor 8.

2.1) (i) W = mg downwards
(ii) N = R = Normal Reaction from the ground upwards
(iii) Fe = Force of engine towards the right
(iv) f = friction towards the left
(v) ma = Constant acceleration towards right.
2.2.1)
v = 25 m/s
u = 0 m/s
∆v = v - u = (25 - 0) m/s = 25 m/s
x = X
∆t = 50 s
a \:  =  \:  \frac{dv}{dt}  \:  =  \:  \frac{25 \:  \frac{m}{s} }{50 \: s} \:  =  \: 0.5 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }
a = 0.5 m/s².
2.2.2)
F = ma = 900 kg × 0.5 m/s² = 450 N.
2.2.3)
2ax \:  =  \:  {v}^{2}  \:  -  \:  {u}^{2}
x \:  =  \:  \frac{ {v}^{2}  \:   -  \:  {u}^{2} }{2a}  \:  =  \:   \frac{{(25 \:  \frac{m}{s})}^{2}  \:  -  \:  {(0 \:  \frac{m}{s} )}^{2} }{2 \:  \times  \: 0.5 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} } } \:  =  \: 625 \: m
2.3)
Fe = f + ma
Fe - f = ma
For velocity to be constant,
a should be 0, or, a = 0,
Fe = f = 270 N
2.4.1)
v = 0
u = 25 m/s
a = -0.5 m/s²
v = u + at
t = -u/a = -(25)/(-0.5) = 50 s.
2.4.2)
x = -625/(2×(-0.5)) = 625 m.

If the temperature of an iron sphere is increased A)its density will decrease .B)its volume will decrease. C)its mass will decre
babymother [125]

Answer:

A) Its density will decrease

Explanation:

When an object is heated, its volume increases. This is due to the fact that the particles in the medium vibrate more (if it is a solid) or they move more (if it is a liquid or a gas), therefore they tend to occupy a larger space.

At the same time, the mass of the object does not change, because the mass just represents the amount of matter contained in the object, so it does not increase/decrease at different temperatures.

The density of an object is defined as the ratio between the mass (m) and the volume (V):

d=\frac{m}{V}

We said that the mass remains unchanged while the volume increases: since the density is inversely proportional to the volume, this means that the density decreases.
