If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by
Where
g = Gravitational acceleration
t = time
As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.
Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.
Answer:
Boyle's Law
Explanation:
Given that:
<u><em>initially:</em></u>
pressure of gas,
volume of gas,
<em><u>finally:</u></em>
pressure of gas,
volume of gas,
<u>To solve for final volume</u>
<em>According to Avogadro’s law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the no. of moles of the gas under a constant temperature and pressure.</em>
<em>According to the Charles' law, at constant pressure the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature.</em>
But here we have a change in the pressure of the Gas so we cannot apply Avogadro’s law and Charles' law.
Here nothing is said about the temperature, so we consider the Boyle's Law which states that <em>at constant temperature the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.</em>
