The pressure, volume, and temperature of a mole of an ideal gas are related by the equation PV = 8.31T, where P is measured in k

ilopascals, V in liters, and T in kelvins. Use differentials to find the approximate change in the pressure if the volume increases from 10 L to 10.3 L and the temperature decreases from 330 K to 320 K. (Note whether the change is positive or negative in your answer. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

The pressure will decrease by about 16.53 kPa.

Explanation:

Given that,

The equation is

$PV=8.31 T$ ...(I)

We need to calculate the initial pressure

Using given equation

$PV=8.31 T$

Put the value into the formula

$P=\dfrac{8.31\times330}{10}$

$P=274.23\ kPa$

The volume increase from 10 L to 10.3 L.

$dV=10.3-10=0.3\ L$

The temperature decrease from 330 K to 320 K.

$dT=320-330=-10\ K$

We need to calculate the change in the pressure

Now, on differentiating equation (I)

$d(PV)=8.31dT$

$PdV+VdP=8.31 dT$

Put the value into the formula

$274.23\times0.3+10\times dP=8.31\times(-10)$

$dP=\dfrac{-8.31\times10-274.23\times0.3}{10}$

$dP=−16.53\ kPa$

Hence, The pressure will decrease by about 16.53 kPa.

Answer:

The maximum volume is 1417.87 $inch^3$

Explanation:

<u>Optimization Using Derivatives</u>

We have a 24x30 inch piece of metal and we need to make a rectangular box by cutting a square from each corner of the piece and bending up the sides. The width of the piece is 24 inches and its length is 30 inches

When we cut a square of each corner of side x, the base of the box (after bending up the sides) will be (24-2x) and (30-2x), width and length respectively. The volume of the box is

$V=(24-2x)(30-2x)x$

Operating

$V=4x^3-108x^2+720x$

To find the maximum value of V, we compute the first derivative and equate it to zero

$V'=12x^2-216x+720=0$

Simplifying by 12

$x^2-18x+60=0$

Completing squares

$x^2-18x+81-81+60=0$

$(x-9)^2=21$

We have two values for x

$x=9+\sqrt{21}=13.58\ inch$

$x=9-\sqrt{21}=4.42\ inch$

The first value is not feasible because it will produce a negative width (24-2(13.58))=-6.16

We'll keep only the solution

$x=4.42\ inch$

The width is

$w=(24-2(4.42))=15.16\ inch$

The length is

$l=(30-2(4.42))=21.16\ inch$

And the height

$x=4.42\ inch$

The maximum volume is

$V=(15.16)(21.16)(4.42)=1417.87\ inch^3$

Troyanec [42]

The first thing you should know is that the distance is equal to the speed per time.
Therefore if You walk forward at 1.5 m / s for 8s
d = 1.5t [0,8] s
Your friend decides to walk faster and starts at 2.0 m / s for the first 4 s.
d = 2t [0,4] s
Then she slows down and walks forward at 1.0 m / s for the next 4s
d = t + 4 [4,8] s
Who walked farther?
They both walked the same distance

Suppose that, while lying on a beach near the equator of a far-off planet watching the sun set over a calm ocean, you start a st

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

R=3818Km

Explanation:

Take a look at the picture. Point A is when you start the stopwatch. Then you stand, the planet rotates an angle α and you are standing at point B.

Since you travel 2π radians in 24H, the angle can be calculated as:

$\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *t}{24H}$ t being expressed in hours.

$\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *11.9s*1H/3600s}{24H}=0.000865rad$

From the triangle formed by A,B and the center of the planet, we know that:

$cos(\alpha )=\frac{r}{r+H}$ Solving for r, we get:

$r=\frac{H*cos(\alpha) }{1-cos(\alpha) } =3818Km$

List all the planets in the solar system and their features

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The planets of the solar system are 8:

Mercury is the planet closest to the sun, and therefore the hottest planet in stable conditions. It has an average temperature of 160º C, but with nights of up to -170º C. It is a rocky planet, and it does not have satellites. Its period of rotation around the sun is 88 days.

Venus is also a rocky planet, but considerably larger than Mercury. It has an average temperature of 460º C, due to its enormous atmospheric pressure, thus surpassing Mercury, which is even closer to the sun. Its rotation period is 225 days, and it does not have satellites either.

The Earth, our planet, is the only one with ideal conditions for the development of life: it has a rotation of 365 days, an average temperature of 15ºC and water in sufficient abundance to allow the development of oxygen-producing vegetation.

Mars, the last rocky planet in the chain, has a rotation period of 687 days, an average temperature of -46º C and minimal amounts of water. It has 2 satellites.

Then we have the gaseous planets, which are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These do not have a solid surface, but are composed of gases (and portions of ice due to the extremely high temperature they have, from -120ºC to -220ºC) and enormous amounts of satellites. These are the least fit for life, due to their temperature and lack of solidity.

What energy change takes place when the photovoltaic cell absorbs sunlight?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Solar energy - Chemical energy - Electrical energy

Explanation:

A photovoltaic is a device which operates with respect to its exposure to radiation or light. This property determines its applications in electronics.

The energy from sunlight is in the form of solar energy, which get absorbed by the photovoltaic cell. The cell transforms the solar energy and store it as chemical energy. This is now finally transformed majorly into electrical energy as the output energy from the cell. Some amount of heat energy is produced in the process.
