Make sure the triple beam balance is at 0 before you begin.
Answer:
0.911 atm
Explanation:
In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.
Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:
"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"
Mathematically:
where
p is the gas pressure
T is the absolute temperature
For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:
where in this problem:
is the initial pressure of the gas
is the initial absolute temperature of the gas
is the final temperature of the gas
Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:
Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
The law shows the relationship among an object's mass
and acceleration, and the net force acting on it.
If you know any two of the quantities in the formula,
the law can be used to calculate the third one.
Check the power source. Your thermostat may just not be connected right or at all. A blown fuse, tripped circuit breaker or dead batteries will prevent the thermostat from turning on your furnace.
Dirty thermostat? That’ll cause issues. Clean up any dust, dirt, spider webs and other debris. Any of these things can coat the inside of the thermostat and interfere with both electrical and mechanical functions of the thermostat. Put this on your get-ready-for-winter cleaning list. Just use a soft, clean brush to clean the inside components gently. Don’t get anything wet. Also you can use a can of compressed air, such as is used for electronics, to clear debris.
Check for any loose wires or terminal screws inside the thermostat. Make sure wires aren’t corroded or detached. Never remove the thermostat cover without removing the batteries or turning off the power at the fuse or breaker box. Tighten screws and secure loose wires if needed.
It may be time to replace your thermostat is it’s old. They aren’t meant to last forever and an old thermostat may be costing you a lot of money in wasted energy and time spent tinkering with an outdated model. There are great programmable thermostats available now that are easy to use and simple to connect to your existing HVAC system. Click here for more info on programmable thermostats.
<span>First we can find the circumference of the whole circle with a radius of 5 feet.
circumference = 2 pi radius
circumference = (2 pi) (5 feet)
circumference = (10 pi) feet
From one high point to the other high point, the string moves through an angle of 10 degrees. Since a full circle is 360 degrees, this angle is 1/36 of a full circle.
Therefore, the arc length is 1/36 of the whole circumference.
arc length = (1/36) (circumference)
arc length = (1/36) (10 pi) feet
arc length = 0.873 feet</span>
