Gay-Lussac's Law shows the direct relationship between pressure and temperature for an ideal gas with constant volume. Mathematically it is
$\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}$

This particular has a lot of application in our everyday life. In cooking, for example, we apply this concept when using a pressure cooker. We increase/decrease the temperature to meet the right amount of pressure.

In addition, knowing that pressure increases when temperature does can help you with road safety. Knowing that temperature affects heat directly, we must be careful in making sure that tires are not overheated or else they explode out of too much pressure inside.

A stunt driver rounds a banked, circular curve. The driver rounds the curve at a high, constant speed, such that the car is just

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: C

Frictional force

Explanation:

The description of the question above is an example of a circular motion.

For a car travelling in a curved path, the frictional force between the tyres and the road surface will provide the centripetal force.

Since the road is banked, and the cross section of the banked road is constructed like a ramp. The car drives transversely to the slope of the ramp, so that the wheels of one side of the car are lower than the wheels on the other side of the car, for cornering the banked road, the car will not rely only on the frictional force.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C - the frictional force.

What is terminal velocity and how is it reached?

Ber [7]

He thermal velocity or thermal speed is a typical velocity of the thermal motion of particles which make up a gas, liquid, etc. Thus, indirectly, thermal velocity is a measure of temperature. Technically speaking it is a measure of the width of the peak in the Maxwell–Boltzmann particle velocity distribution.

The arrows in the chart below represent phase transitions.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1, 2, and 3.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this process, since the phase transitions that require energy are those that pass from a state with less energy or more molecular order to a state with more energy or less molecular order, say, from solid to liquid (melting), from liquid to gas (boiling) and from solid to gas (sublimation), we can conclude that the arrows representing heat energy gained are 1, 2, and 3 since 1 represents boiling, 2 melting and 3 sublimation.

Best regards.

The 0.15kg baseball has a speed of v=30 m/s just before it is struck by the bat. It then travels along the trajectory shown befo

notka56 [123]

The magnitude of the average impulsive force imparted to the ball if it is in contact with the bat is 6000 N

The mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

The speed at which it moves, v = 30 m/s

Time at which the baseball was in contact with the bat, t = 0.75 ms

t = 0.75/1000 s

t = 0.00075 s

The impulsive force is given by the formula:
