Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Distance is described with only magnitude. It is defined as the total path covered by an object, in other words it  is the length of a path followed by a particle.

Displacement is described with both magnitude and direction. It is distance traveled in a specified direction or  change in position in some time interval.

Therefore, the correct option is " a. True"

Kamila [148]

Answer:

0.1667 m/s

Explanation:

m1V1 + m2V2 = m1V3 + m2V4

0.01 = ( 0.0075) + (0.015 * V4)

V4 = (0.01 - 0.0075) / (0.015)

V4= 0.1667

A sample of a gas in a rigid container has an initial pressure of 5 atm at a temperature of 254.5 k. The temperature is decrease
skelet666 [1.2K]

The gas is in a rigid container: this means that its volume remains constant. Therefore, we can use Gay-Lussac law, which states that for a gas at constant volume, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. The law can be written as follows:

\frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2}

Where P1=5 atm is the initial pressure, T1=254.5 K is the initial temperature, P2 is the new pressure and T2=101.8 K is the new temperature. Re-arranging the equation and using the data of the problem, we can find P2:

P_2 = T_2 \frac{P_1}{T_1}=(101.8 K) \frac{5 atm}{254.5 K}=2 atm

So, the new pressure is 2 atm.
