The air pressure in the rigid tank Decreases.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A rigid tank is said to be a region where volume is always considered as a constant. During the process of cooling the rigid tank where the temperature is said to be decreased, the effect of air pressure in the tank also decreases.

Because, PV = RT, where P is the pressure, T is temperature, R is constant, V is the volume. Hence pressure is directly proportional to temperature.

If the temperature in the tank is decreased this would imply that the kinetic energy of molecule decreases because of the ideal gas law:
PV= nRT (Since Pressure is directly proportional to Temperature).
So the answer is B.The air pressure in the rigid tank decreases.
Hope this helps you.

If the force that propels the cannonball forward is 500N, how much force will move the cannon backward?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Well it would be equal to 500N because pushing forward the ball (or whatever maybe a body) would push the canon back an even 500N backwards...

If an automobile had a 100%-efficient engine, transferring all of the fuel's energy to work, would the engine be warm to your to
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The engine would be warm to touch, and the exhaust gases would be at ambient temperature. The engine would not vibrate nor make any noise. None of the fuel entering the engine would go unused.

Explanation:

In this ideal engine, none of these events would happen due to the nature of the efficiency.

We can define efficiency as the ratio between the used energy and the potential generable energy in the fuel.

n=W, total/(E, available).

However, in real engines the energy generated in the combustion of the fuel transforms into heat (which heates the exhost gases, and the engine therefore transfering some of this heat to the environment). Also, there are some mechanical energy loss due to vibrations and sound, which are also energy that comes from the fuel combustion.
