Answer:

B. temperature decreases as altitude increases.

Explanation:

Just like in the lower reaches of the atmosphere, the troposphere, in the mesosphere, temperature decreases as altitude increases.

The mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere just above the stratosphere.

It begins at the top of the stratosphere and ends at the mesopause where the thermosphere begins.
The mesosphere is often referred to as the middle layer.

With increasing height, the temperature of the mesosphere decreases significantly. The top of the mesosphere is one of the coldest part of the earth atmosphere. This is as a result of increasing atmospheric cooling by carbon dioxide in this region of the atmosphere.

(ii) Electrons are supplied to the external circuit. How and where is this done?<br> [2]

pentagon [3]

Answer:

The electrons are supplied by the species getting oxidized. They move from anode to the cathode in the external circuit. The external battery supplies the electrons. They enter through the cathode and come out through the anode

For each pair; which has higher kinetic energy?

RideAnS [48]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as the energy obtained by an object due to its motion. Whereas energy obtained by an object due to its position is known as potential energy.

(a) When a sled is resting at the top of a hill then it means the sled in not moving. Hence, then it has only potential energy. But when a sled sliding down the hill then it is moving from its initial position.

Hence, when a sled is sliding down the hill then it has higher kinetic energy.

(b) When water is above the dam then it only has potential energy but when the water falls over the dam then it has higher kinetic energy.

1. The pressure of a gas is 100.0 kPa and its volume is 500.0 ml. If the volume increases to 1,000.0 ml, what is the new pressur

marta [7]

Answer:

1) The new pressure of the gas is 500 kilopascals.

2) The final volume is 1.44 liters.

3) Volume will decrease by approximately 67 %.

4) The Boyle's Laws deals with pressures and volumes.

Explanation:

1) From the Equation of State for Ideal Gases we construct the following relationship:

$\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$P_{1}, P_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in kPa.

$V_{1}, V_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in mililiters.

If we know that $P_{1} = 100\,kPa$ , $V_{1} = 500\,mL$ and $V_{2} = 1000\,mL$ , then the new pressure of the gas is:

$P_{2} = P_{1}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right)$

$P_{2} = 500\,kPa$

The new pressure of the gas is 500 kilopascals.

2) Let suppose that gas experiments an isothermal process. From the Equation of State for Ideal Gases we construct the following relationship:

$\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$P_{1}, P_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in kPa.

$V_{1}, V_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in mililiters.

If we know that $V_{1} = 3.60\,L$ , $P_{1} = 10\,kPa$ and $P_{2} = 25\,kPa$ then the new volume of the gas is:

$V_{2} = V_{1}\cdot \left(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} \right)$

$V_{2} = 1.44\,L$

The final volume is 1.44 liters.

3) From the Equation of State for Ideal Gases we construct the following relationship:

$\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$P_{1}, P_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in kPa.

$V_{1}, V_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in mililiters.

If we know that $\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = 3$ , then the volume ratio is:

$\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} = 3$

$\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = \frac{1}{3}$

Volume will decrease by approximately 67 %.

4) The Boyle's Laws deals with pressures and volumes.
