Answer:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object and also directly proportional to the square of the velocity of that object:

E_k = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Notice that if we keep velocity constant and only increase the mass of a object, the kinetic energy of that object would increase, as we've already emphasized the direct relationship between the kinetic energy term and the mass term.

Let's take a simple example: assume that object 1 and object 2 are both moving at the same velocity but object 1 has a much lower mass than object 2. According to the equation, object 1 has lower kinetic energy. This object can then transform all of its kinetic energy into some other form, say, heat the ground. The heat transferred will be significantly lower than by the object 2 moving at the same velocity but having a much greater mass.

A 48.3 mL sample of gas in a cylinder is warmed from 22 °C to
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

58.94 mL

Explanation:

V1 = 48.3 mL             V2 = v mL

T1 = 22 degree celsius OR 295 k         T2 = 87 degree celsius OR 360 k

We will use the gas equation:

PV = nRT

Since the Pressure (p) , number of moles (n) and the universal gas constant(R) are all constants in this given scenario,

we can say that

V / T = k , (where k is a constant)

Since this is the first case,

V1 / T1 = k --------------------(1)

For case 2:

Since we have the same constants, the equation will be the same

V / T = k (where k is the same constant from before)

V2 / T2 = k (Since this is the second case) ------------------(2)

From (1) and (2):

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

Now, replacing the variables with the given values

48.3 / 295 = v / 360

v = 48.3*360 / 295

v = 58.94 mL

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 58.94 mL
