A gas sample is confined within a chamber that has a movable piston. A small load is placed on the piston; and the system is all

owed to reach equilibrium. If the total weight of the piston and load is 70.0 N and the piston has an area of 5.0 × 10 –4 m 2 , what is the pressure exerted on the piston by the gas? Note: Atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10 5 Pa.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total weight of the piston, W = F = 70 N

Area of the piston, a=5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2

Let P is the pressure exerted on the piston by the gas. The force per unit area is called the pressure exerted pressure of the gas. Mathematically, it is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P=\dfrac{70\ N}{5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2}

P=1.4\times 10^5\ Pa

We know that the atmospheric pressure is given by :

P_o=1.013\times 10^5\ Pa

So, the pressure is given by :

p=P+P_o

p=1.4\times 10^5+1.013\times 10^5

p=2.41\times 10^5\ Pa

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why does it takes a long time to heat a room with a high ceiling?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

High ceilings make a room feel large and open, but they can be difficult to cool and heat. Because hot air rises, the challenge becomes trying to keep the hot air where you want it and preventing if from being wasted where you don't.

Compare animal and plant cell
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles. Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

hope this helps :)
