Answer:

The distance between the beginning of the first P wave and the first S wave tells you how many seconds the waves are apart. This number will be used to tell you how far your seismograph is from the epicenter of the earthquake. Measure the distance between the first P wave and the first S wave.

Consider a balloon with volume V. It contains n moles of gas and has an internal pressure of P. The temperature of the gas is T.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

V₂ = 0.6 V.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n is constant, and have different values of P, V and T:

<em>(P₁V₁T₂) = (P₂V₂T₁).</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = V, P₁ = P, T₁ = T.

V₂ = ??? V, ​P₂ = 1.25 P, T₂ = 0.75 T.

<em>∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁T₂)/(P₂T₁) =</em> (P)(V)(0.75 T)/(1.25 P)(T)<em> = 0.6 V.</em>

How is the Hvap used to calculate the mass of liquid boiled by 1 kJ of energy?
coldgirl [10]
The heat used in phase changes is calculated by multiplying the mass of the substance by the energy of the phase change. In this case, for liquid to boil, we would find total heat by multiply the mass of liquid by the latent heat of vaporization (Hvap). If we are instead given the Hvap and the total heat of 1 kJ, we would divide 1 kJ by the Hvap (which is usually in kJ/kg) to get the mass of liquid boiled (in kg).
