Because the temperature remains constant, we can apply Boyle's Law which states that 
pV = constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume

Define the two states of the gas.

State 1
Pressure = p₁
Volume = 1000 ml

State 2
Pressure = p₂
Volume = 500 ml

Apply Boyle's law.
1000p₁ = 500p₂
2 = p₂/p₁

By halving the volume, the pressure doubles.

Answer:
The pressure increases by a factor of 2.

Which is most important in the use of a camera photofl ash unit, the intensity of the light (the energy per unit area per unit t
maria [59]

Answer:

intensity of the light (the energy per unit area per unit time)

Explanation:

  • The photoflash capacitor is an electrolytic capacitor that is also used in flash cameras, professional illumination and solid-state laser supply. Their general purpose is to briefly power a high-voltage flash tube, which can be used to illuminate photographic material or to alternately pump a laser rod.
  • Since the flash tube requires very little time to operate, photoflash capacitors are designed to supply high discharge current pulses without excessive internal heating.

A bartender slides a beer mug at 1.6 m/s towards a customer at the end of a frictionless bar that is 1.1 m tall. The customer ma
Drupady [299]

Answer:

(a): the mug hits the floor 0.752m away from the end of the bar.

(b): the speed of the mug at impact are:

V= 4.87 m/s

direction= 70.82º below the horizontal.

Explanation:

Vx= 1.6 m/s

Vy=?

h= 1.1 m

g= 9.8 m/s²

t is the fall time

t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g} }

t=0.47 sec

Vy= g*t

Vy= 4.6 m/s

V=\sqrt{Vx^{2} +Vy^{2}

V= 4.87 m/s

α= tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

α= -70.82º

According to string theory, six space-time dimensions cannot be measured except as quantum numbers of internal particle properti
aliina [53]

Answer:

Order of 10^(-35) m.

Explanation:

The string theory is a theoretical concept whereby the very small particles of particle physics are replaced by one dimensional objects which are called strings. This theory is also applicable to black hole physics, nuclear physics, cosmology, etc.

Now, according to string theory, six space-time dimensions cannot be measured except as quantum numbers of internal particle properties because they are curled up in size of the order of 10^(-35) m.

This is because the length of the scale is assumed to be on the order of the Planck length, or 10^(−35) meters which is the scale at which the effects of quantum gravity are usually believed to become very significant.
