A student measures the volume of a gas sample at several different temperatures. The results are tabulated as follows:Temperatur

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Check the first and the third choices:

a. The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume

b. The temperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant.

Explanation:

Rewrite the table for better understanding:

Temperature of gas (K) Volume of gas (L)

298 4.55

315 4.81

325 4.96

335 ?

Calculate the ratios temperature to volume with 3 significant figures:

298 / 4.55 = 65.5

315 / 4.81 = 65.5

325 / 4.96 = 65.5

Then, those numbers show a constant temperature-to-volume ratio, which may be expressed in a formula as:

Temperature / Volume = constant, which is a directly proportional variation (the volume increases in a constant proportion to the increase of the temperature).

Hence, the correct choices are:

The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume (first statement), and

The emperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant (third statement).

While finding the spring constant, if X1 = 12 cm, X2 = 15 cm, and hanging mass = 22 grams, the value of spring constant K would

Pavel [41]

Answer:

If x₁=12 cm then k=1.7985 N/m

If x₂=15 cm then k=1.4388 N/m

Explanation:

Hanging mass= 22 g=0.022 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81 m/s²

If x₁=displacement= 12 cm=0.12 m

k= spring constant

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=0.022\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F=0.21582\ N$

$\text {For spring}\\F=kx\\\Rightarrow 0.21582=k\times 0.012\\\Rightarrow k=1.7985\ N/m\\$

∴k = 1.7985 N/m

If x₂=15 cm=0.15 m

Force of the hanging mass is same however the spring constant will change

$\text {For spring}\\F=kx\\\Rightarrow 0.21582=k\times 0.015\\\Rightarrow k=1.4388\ N/m\\$

∴k = 1.4388 N/m

As the mass is not changing the spring constant has to change. That means that here there are two spring one with k=1.7985 N/m and the other with k= 1.4388 N/m

Technician A says that the evacuation process will remove dirt and debris from the refrigerant system. Technician B says that th

GuDViN [60]

Answer: Technician B is right.

Explanation:

Evacuation process is used in refrigeration systems to remove moisture, air and non-profit condensable gases in order to achieve maximum function of the system.

vacuum pump is used to draw the sealed AC system into a vacuum. Evacuation of a refrigerant system also helps to maintain pressure, this is so as pulling a vacuum on the system is simply removing matter (mostly air and nitrogen) from inside the system so that the pressure inside drops below atmospheric pressure.

Near the equator, the patterns of convection currents are called ________.

tatyana61 [14]

Near the equator, the patterns of convection currents are called Hadley Cells.

Hadley Cells refers to the low-latitude overturning movements that have air increasing at the equator and air dropping at roughly latitude of 30 degree and these cells are also responsible for the trade winds in the Tropics and control low-latitude patterns of weather.
