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.

The longer you spend reading and thinking about this question,
the more defective it appears.

-- In each case, the amount of work done is determined by the strength
of the force AND by the distance the skateboard rolls while you're still 
applying the force. Without some more or different information, the total
distance the skateboard rolls may or may not tell how much work was done
to it.

-- We know that the forces are equal, but we don't know anything about
how far each one rolled while the force continued. All we know is that
one force must have been removed.

-- If one skateboard moves a few feet and comes to a stop, then you
must have stopped pushing it at some time before it stopped, otherwise
it would have kept going.

-- How far did that one roll while you were still pushing it ?

-- Did you also stop pushing the other skateboard at some point, or
did you stick with that one?

-- Did each skateboard both roll the same distance while you continued pushing it ?

I don't think we know enough about the experimental set-up and methods
to decide which skateboard had more work done to it.

How should the flight controls be held while taxiing a tricycle-gear equipped airplane with a left quartering tailwind?

AlexFokin [52]

The flight controls must be held with left aileron up and elevator neutral while taxiing a tricycle-gear equipped airplane with a left quartering tailwind. In aircraft, ailerons are placed on the trailing edge of each wing near the wingtips and can be moved up and down. So when the left aileron is up, the movement of the airplane moves to the left and turns the wheel in a counterclockwise direction while at the same time, the right aileron is down.
