Answer:
Surely Achilles will catch the Tortoise, in 400 seconds
Explanation:
The problem itself reduces the interval of time many times, almost reaching zero. However, if we assume the interval constant, then it is clear that in two hours Achilles already has surpassed the Tortoise (20 miles while the Tortoise only 3).
To calculate the time, we use kinematic expression for constant speed:
The moment that Achilles catch the tortoise is found by setting the same final position for both (and same time as well, since both start at the same time):
Answer : The final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L
Solution :
Using combined gas equation is,
where,
= initial pressure of gas = 1 atm
= final pressure of gas = 0.3 atm
= initial volume of gas = 6000 L
= final volume of gas = ?
= initial temperature of gas = 273 K
= final temperature of gas = 240 K
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.
Therefore, the final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L
