Answer:

The pressure must have increased in the process

Explanation:

The State Equation for gasses reads: P*V=n*R*T

where P is the gas' pressure, V its volume, n the number of moles of gas,  R the gas constant and T the temperature in degrees Kelvin.

If the temperature of the gas doesn't change in the described process, the right hand side of the equation stays the same. If that is the case, given that when the Volume of the gas diminishes from 75 liters to 50 liters, then the pressure must have increased to keep that product "P * V" constant:

P_i*V_i=P_f*V_f\\75 *300=50*X\\X=\frac{75*300}{50} =450

So the pressure must have gone up to 450 kilopascals.

In this image of a pendulum, where is the lowest potential energy found?
uranmaximum [27]

Think about the formula for potential energy. (Surely you remember it):

Potential energy = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (height)

-- The mass on the end of the pendulum doesn't change.

-- The acceleration of gravity doesn't change.

-- The only thing that changes is the height of the mass on the end.

So the potential energy is lowest when its height is the lowest.

That's position <em>B </em>.

When an atom that has no charge looses two electrons it becomes a
alex41 [277]

Answer: it becomes a positive ion

Explanation:

So, when an atom loses 2 electrons there will be no change in the number of neutrons. Therefore, an isotope will not form. Thus, it is concluded that when an atom with no charge loses two electrons, it becomes a positive ion.

An open-end mercury manometer is connected to a low-pressure pipeline that supplies a gas to a laboratory. Because paint was spi
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

a

P_G  = 14.03 \  psig  

b

h_m =   0.148 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The pressure of the manometer when there is no gas flow is P_{m} =  15.5 \  psig  =  15.5 *  6894.76 =  106868.78 \ N/m^2

The level of mercury is h  =  950 \ mm  =  0.950 \  m

The drop in the mercury level at the visible arm is d =  39.0 =  0.039 \  m

Generally when there is no gas flow the pressure of the manometer is equal to the gauge pressure which is mathematically represented as

P_g  =  P_m  =  g *  \delta h  * \rho

Here \rho is the density of mercury with value \rho = 13.6 *10^{3} kg/m^3

and \delta h is the difference in the level of gas in arm one and two

So

\delta h  =  \frac{106868.78}{  13.6 *10^{3} *  9.8 }

\delta h  = 0.802 \  m

Generally the height of the mercury at the arm connected to the pipe is mathematically represented as

h_m =   0.950 -  0.802

=> h_m =   0.148 \  m

Generally from manometry principle we have that

P_G + \rho * g  * d   -  \rho *  g  * [h - (h_m + d)] = 0

Here P_G is the pressure of the gas

P_G +13.6 *10^{3} * 9.8  * 0.039    -  13.6 *10^{3}  *  9.8  * [0.950 - (0.148 + 0.039)] = 0

P_G  =  9.6724 04 *10^{4} \  N/m^2

converting to  psig

P_G  = \frac{ 9.6724 04 *10^{4} }{6894.76}

P_G  = 14.03 \  psig
