`i have a sealed cylinder sitting in my lab that contains 1,000.0 ml of gas. if i compress the cylinder and change the volume to

500.0 ml, keeping the temperature constant, what will i expect to see happen to the pressure?

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 of the following circuits can be used to measure the resistance of the heating element, shown as a resistor in the diagram
Wewaii [24]

In order to measure the resistance in the circuit, we need to know the voltage V and the current I in the circuit, this way we can calculate the resistance using the formula:

R=\frac{V}{I}

In order to calculate the current, we can use an amperemeter that must be in series with the circuit, this way it will not affect the circuit.

And in order to calculate the voltage, we can use a voltmeter that must be in parallel with the resistance, this way it will not affect the circuit.

The correct option that shows an amperemeter in series and a voltmeter in parallel is the fourth option.

9. A 5.0 kg block on an inclined plane is acted upon by a horizontal force of 100 N shown in the figure below. The coefficient o
Helga [31]

Answer:

A: The acceleration is 7.7 m/s up the inclined plane.

B: It will take the block 0.36 seconds to move 0.5 meters up along the inclined plane

Explanation:

Let us work with variables and set

m=5kg\\\\F_H=100N\\\\\mu=0.3\\\\\theta=37^o.

As shown in the attached free body diagram, we choose our coordinates such that the x-axis is parallel to the inclined plane and the y-axis is perpendicular. We do this because it greatly simplifies our calculations.

Part A:

From the free body diagram we see that the total force along the x-axis is:

F_{tot}=mg*sin(\theta)+F_s-F_Hcos(\theta).

Now the force of friction is F_s=\mu*N, where N is the normal force and from the diagram it is F_y=mg*cos(\theta).

Thus F_s=\mu*N=\mu*mg*cos(\theta).

Therefore,

F_{tot}=mg*sin(\theta)+\mu*mg*cos(\theta)-F_Hcos(\theta)\\\\=mg(sin(\theta)+\mu*cos(\theta))-F_Hcos(\theta).

Substituting the value for F_H,m,\mu, and \:\theta we get:

F_{tot}= -38.63N.

Now acceleration is simply

a=\frac{F_H}{m} =\frac{-38.63N}{5kg} =-7.7m/s.

The negative sign indicates that the acceleration is directed up the incline.

Part B:

d=\frac{1}{2} at^2

Which can be rearranged to solve for t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a} }

Substitute the value of d=0.50m and a=7.7m/s and we get:

t=0.36s.

which is our answer.

Notice that in using the formula to calculate time we used the positive value of a, because for this formula absolute value is needed.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the edge of the cliff and hits the ground at the base of the cliff with a speed of 30 m
olya-2409 [2.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. From the definition of the final velocity, as the sum between the initial velocity and the product between the acceleration (gravity) by time, we will find the final velocity. From the second law of kinematics, we will find the vertical position traveled.

v = v_0 -gt

Here,

v = Final velocity

v_0 = Initial velocity

g = Acceleration due to gravity

t = Time

At t = 4s, v = -30m/s (Downward)

Therefore the initial velocity will be

-30 = v_0 -9.8(4)

v_0 = 9.2m/s

Now the position can be calculated as,

y = h +v_0t -\frac{1}{2}gt^2

When it has the ground, y=0 and the time is t=4s,

0 = h+(9.2)(4)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(4)^2

h = 41.6m

Therefore the cliff was initially to 41.6m from the ground
