You have gas in a container with a movable piston. The walls of the container are thin enough so that its temperature stays the

same as the temperature of the surrounding medium. You have baths of water of different temperatures, different objects that you can place on top of the piston, etc. You make the gas undergo an isothermal process so that the pressure inside increases by 10%, then undergo an isobaric process so that the new volume decreases by 20%, and finally undergo an isochoric process so that the temperature increases by 15%. What is the new pressure of the Gas? What is the new volume of the gas? What is the new temperature of the gas?

Answer:

New pressure of the gas increases by 26.5% with respect to initial pressure, new volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume and new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.

Explanation:

If we assume the gas is a perfect gas we can use the perfect gas equation:

PV=nRT

  • For Isothermal process:

\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}(1)

Where subscripts 1 shows before the isothermal process and 2 after it, because isothermal means constant temperature T1=T2, and pressure increases by 10% means P2=1,1*P1, using these facts on (1) we have:

V_{2}=\frac{V_{1}}{1.1} (2)

  • For Isobaric process:

\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}=\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}} (3)

Where subscripts 2 shows before the isobaric process and 3 after it, because isobaric means constant pressure P2=P3, and volume decreases by 20% means V3=0.8*V2, using these facts on (3) we have:

T_{3}=0.8T_{2} (4)

  • For Isochoric process:

\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}}=\frac{P_{4}V_{4}}{T_{4}} (5)

Where subscripts 3 shows before the isochoric process and 4 after it, because isochoric means constant volume V3=V4, and temperature increases by 15% means T4=1.15*T3, using these facts on (5) we have:

P_{4}=1.15P_{3} (6)

So now because P4=1.15*P3, P2=P3 and P2=1.1*P1:

P_{4}=1.15*1.1P_{1}=1.265P1

This is, the new pressure of the gas increases by 26.5%  with respect to initial pressure.

Similarly, we have V3=V4, V3=0.8*V2 and V1=1,1*V2:

V_{4}=\frac{0.8}{1.1}V_{1}=0.72V1

so the final volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume.

T4=1,15*T3, T3=0.8*T2 and T1=T2:

T_{4}=1.15*0.8T_{1}=0.92T1

The new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.

you’ve just been involved in a traffic accident that leaves you stranded on the side of the road. Which part of the EM spectrum
Akimi4 [234]

You’ve just been involved in a traffic accident that leaves you stranded on the side of the road. <u>Microwaves from the EM spectrum would be of the most use.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

  • Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths ranging from about one meter to one millimeter, with frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz.
  • Microwaves have a range of applications, including communications, radar and, perhaps best known by most people, cooking
  • Microwave is a line-of-sight wireless communication technology that uses high frequency beams of radio waves to provide high speed wireless connections that can send and receive voice, video, and data information.
  • Microwaves and radio waves are used to communicate with satellites.
  • Microwaves pass straight through the atmosphere and are suitable for communicating with distant geostationary satellites, while radio waves are suitable for communicating with satellites in low orbit.
  • Microwaves are widely used in modern technology, <u>for example</u> : in point-to-point communication links, wireless networks, microwave radio relay networks, radar, satellite and spacecraft communication, medical diathermy and cancer treatment, etc

What happened to the kelp forest when the otter was hunted to near extinction?
never [62]

Answer: Sea otter is the pioneer species in the kelp forest as it regulates and controls the population of other species in the kelp forest.

Explanation:

If sea otters are hunted and their population is brought to extinction then this will cause major harm the ecosystem of the kelp forest and it will disturb the ecological balance in the kelp forest. The herbivorous animals consumed by the sea otters will increase in population and they will consume a lot of vegetation in the forest. The kelp forest which forms the coastline will not remain effective in providing protection against the storms to the neighboring areas.
