Answer:

To calculate the atomic mass of a single atom of an element, add up the mass of protons and neutrons. Example: Find the atomic mass of an isotope of carbon that has 7 neutrons. You can see from the periodic table that carbon has an atomic number of 6, which is its number of protons.

Answer:

he factor for the temporal part 1.296 107 s² = h²

m / s² = 12960 km / h²

Explanation:

This is a unit conversion exercise.

In the unit conversion, the size of the object is not changed, only the value with respect to which it is measured is changed, for this reason in the conversion the amount that is in parentheses must be worth one.

In this case, it is requested to convert a measure km/h²

Unfortunately, it is not clearly indicated what measure it is, but the most used unit in physics is m / s² , which is a measure of acceleration. Let's cut this down

the factor for the distance is 1000 m = 1 km

the factor for time is 3600 s = 1 h

let's make the conversion

m / s² (1km / 1000 m) (3600 s / 1h)²

note that as time is squared the conversion factor is also squared

m / s² = 12960 km / h²

the factor for the temporal part 1.29 107 s² = h²

Thermodynamic Processes: An ideal gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of its initial volume. The resulting pressure will

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

Explanation:

The equation of state for ideal gases is described below:

$P\cdot V = n \cdot R_{u}\cdot T$ (1)

Where:

$P$ - Pressure.

$V$ - Volume.

$n$ - Molar quantity, in moles.

$R_{u}$ - Ideal gas constant.

$T$ - Temperature.

Given that ideal gas is compressed isothermally, this is, temperature remains constant, pressure is increased and volume is decreased, then we can simplify (1) into the following relationship:

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

If we know that $\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = \frac{1}{3}$ , then the resulting pressure of the system is:

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

$P_{2} = 3\cdot P_{1}$

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.
