Answer:

μk = (Vf - Vc)/(T×g)

Explanation:

Given

Vi = initial velocity of the car

Vf = final velocity of the car

T = Time of application of brakes

g = acceleration due to gravity (known constant)

Let the mass of the car be Mc

Assuming only kinetic frictional force acts on the car as the driver applies the brakes,

The n from Newtown's second law of motion.

Fk = Mc×a

Fk = μk×Mc×g

a = (Vf - Vc)/T

Equating both preceding equation.

μk×Mc×g = Mc × (Vf - Vc)/T

Mc cancels out.

μk = (Vf - Vc)/(T×g)

If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.6 atm, what is the final volume, in milliliters, of the cylinder?
Bess [88]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The air in the cylinder with a piston has a volume of 220 mL and a pressure of 650 mmHg.

If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.6 atm, what is the final volume, in milliliters, of the cylinder?

Answer : The final volume of the cylinder is, 117.6 mL

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 650 mmHg = 0.855 atm   (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 1.6 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 220 mL

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

0.855atm\times 220mL=1.6atm\times V_2

V_2=117.6mL

Therefore, the final volume of the cylinder is, 117.6 mL
