TRUE OR FALSE : Boyle’s law states that, as the pressure of a gas increases, the volume decreases.

At first glance, this statement seems to be true.  But after about a
microsecond of further consideration, one realizes that the statement
would actually set Boyle spinning in his grave, and is false.

Boyle's law states that there is a firm relationship among the pressure,
temperature, and volume of an ideal gas, and that you can't say anything
about how any two of these quantities depend on each other, unless you
also say what's happening to the third one at the same time.

As the pressure of an ideal gas increases, the volume will decrease in
direct proportion to the volume, IF THE TEMPERATURE OF THE GAS
REMAINS CONSTANT.

If you wanted to, you could increase the pressure AND the volume of an
ideal gas both at the same time.  You would just need to warm it enough
while you squeeze it.

What is an example of a non contact force
olchik [2.2K]

Answer: Gravitational force

Explanation:

A non contact force can be described as a force applied to an object by another body that is not in direct contact with it.

For example, an object thrown upwards will return back due to the force of gravity acting on it. So, it means Gravitational force is acting on the body without necessarily being in contact with that body.

As shown in the picture above, a sled of mass 67 kilograms is pulled
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

F net of sled = Tension force by rope - Kinetic friction between ground.

F normal of sled = mg = (67kg)(9.81kg/m^2) = 657.27N.

Kinetic friction = 0.18 (I cannot see the value) * Normal force of sled = 0.18 * 657.27N = 118.31N

So F net of sled = 800N - 118.31N = 681.69N.

(I cannot see what the question is asking for, please check on your own!)
