Answer:

F = 1280 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration experienced by a space shuttle, a = 32 m/s²

Mass of the astronauts, m = 40 kg

We need to find the force experienced by the astronaut.

We know that the net force is equal to the product of acceleration and its mass. So,

F = ma

F = 40 kg × 32 m/s²

So,

F = 1280 N

So, 1280 N of force is experienced by the Astronaut.

A 1,70 atm, una muestra de gas ocupa 4,25 litros. Si la presión en el gas aumenta a 2.40 atm, ¿cuál será el nuevo volumen?
statuscvo [17]

At 1.70 atm, a gas sample occupies 4.25 liters. If the pressure in the gas increases to 2.40 atm, what will the new volume be?

Answer:

3.01L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial pressure, P1  = 1.7atm

Initial volume, V1  = 4.25L

Final pressure, P2  = 2.4atm

Unknown:

Final or new volume, V2  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes, if the temperature is constant".

            P1 V1  = P2 V2

P1 is the initial pressure

V1 is the initial volume

P2 final pressure

V2 final volume

        1.7 x 4.25  = 2.4 x V2

             V2  = 3.01L
