Answer:

The acceleration of the car at the instant when t=3s is found by taking the gradient of the tangent at the point t=3.

The tangent are those dotted lines sloping upwards in the graph.

Tangent: A straight line that touches the curve and does not intersect it.

The reason why they wrote instantaneous is because the acceleration (or gradient of graph) is not constant throughout hence it is just at the moment when t=3s.

Gradient is used to find the acceleration of a speed time graph.

How do you answer this. Need help ASAP. Offering 20 points !!!

Temka [501]

in this since your volume remains at a constant you'll need to use Gay-Lussacs law, p1/t1=p2/t2.

your temp should be converted in kelvin

variables:

p1=3.0×10^6 n/m^2

t1= 270k

just add 273 to your celcius

p2= ? your solving for this

t2= 315k

then you set up the equation

(3.0×10^6)/270= (x)(315)

you then cross multiply

(3.0×10^6)315=270x

distribute the 315 to the pressure.

9.45×10^8=270x then you divide 270 o both sides to get

answer

3.5×10^6 n/m^2
