Answer:

Explanation:

According to the ideal gas equation

P V = n RT

where, P is pressure, V is volume , n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is the temperature of the gas.

According to the equation, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas. As the temperature decreases, the pressure of the gas also decreases.

Answer:

Pressure Increases

Explanation:

When the temperature of a gas is increased inside a container then the pressure of the gas inside the container increases.

This can be deduced by the Ideal Gas law equation:

$P.V=n.R.T$

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n = no. of moles of gas

R = universal gas constant

$T=$ temperature of the gas

So,

$P\propto T$ hence the pressure of the gas will increase while the temperature is increased at a constant volume

A car cruises at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour. How much time will it take to go 600 miles?

Len [333]

Speed is constant. 50 miles = 1 hour. 600/50 = 12. 1hr(12) = 12 hours.

Which nucleus completes the following equation?

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer: $^{50}_{25}Mn\rightarrow ^{0}_1e+ ^{50}_{24}Cr$

The chromium nucleus will complete the reaction.

Explanation:

The given reaction is a type of radioactive nuclei decay:

Positron emission: It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron neutrino. This is also known as $\beta ^+$ -decay. In this the mass number remains same.

$_A^Z\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{+1}^0e$

Now according to the given reaction:

$^{50}_{25}Mn\rightarrow ^{0}_1e+ ^{50}_{24}Cr$

The chromium nucleus will complete the reaction.

Choose the statement(s) that is/are true about the ratio \frac{C_p}{C_v} C p C v for a gas? (Ii) This ratio is the same for all

Blababa [14]

Answer:

(i) false

(ii) true

(iii) true

(iv) false

Explanation:

(i) The ratio of Cp and Cv is not constant for all the gases. It is because the value of cp and Cv is different for monoatomic, diatomic and polyatomic gases.

So, this is false.

(ii) For monoatomic gas

Cp = 5R/2, Cv = 3R/2

So, thier ratio

Cp / Cv = 5 / 3 = 1.67

This statement is true.

(iii) for diatomic gases

Cp = 7R/2, Cv = 5R/2

Cp / Cv = 7 / 5 = 1.4

This statement is true.

(iv) It is false.

Four weightlifters (A-D) enter a competition. The mass, distance, and time of their lifts are shown in the table.

siniylev [52]

Let Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd be the powers delivered by weightlifters A, B, C, and D, respectively.

Use this equation to determine each power value:

P = W÷Δt

P is the power, W is the work done by the weightlifter, and Δt is the elapsed time.

A) Determining Pa:

Pa = W÷Δt

The weightlifter does work to lift the weight up a certain distance. Therefore the work done is equal to the weight's gain in gravitational potential energy. The equation for gravitational PE is

PE = mgh

PE is the potential energy, m is the mass of the weight, g is the acceleration of objects due to earth's gravity, and h is the distance the weight was lifted.

We can equate W = PE = mgh, therefore we can make the following substitution:

Pa = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 100.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 2.25m

Δt = 0.151s

Plug in the values and solve for Pa

Pa = 100.0×9.81×2.25÷0.151

Pa = 14600W (watt is the SI derived unit of power)

B) Determining Pb:

Let us use our new equation derived in part A to solve for Pb:

Pb = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 150.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.76m

Δt = 0.052s

Plug in the values and solve for Pb

Pb = 150.0×9.81×1.76÷0.052

Pb = 49800W

C) Determining Pc:

Pc = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 200.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.50m

Δt = 0.217s

Plug in the values and solve for Pc

Pc = 200.0×9.81×1.50÷0.217

Pc = 13600W

D) Determining Pd:

Pd = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 250.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.25m

Δt = 0.206s

Plug in the values and solve for Pd

Pd = 250.0×9.81×1.25÷0.206

Pd = 14900W

Compare the following power values:

Pa = 14600W, Pb = 49800W, Pc = 13600W, Pd = 14900W

Pc is the lowest value.

Therefore, weightlifter C delivers the least power.
