Answer:

P1 = 240 kPa.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume = 0.3 m³

Final volume, V2 = 0.9 m³

Final pressure, P2 = 80 kPa

To find the initial pressure, we would use Boyle's law;

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by the formula;

PV = K

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

P_{1} * 0.3 = 80 * 0.9

0.3P_{1} = 72

P_{1} = \frac {72}{0.3}

P_{1} = 240

Therefore, the initial pressure of the gas is 240 kPa

Answer:

Explanation:

1) acceleration is the change in velocity of a body with respect to time.

acceleration = velocity/time

Given

velocity = 139m/s

time = 20secs

acceleration = 139/20

acceleration = 6.95m/s²

Hence its average acceleration during the first 20 seconds of the launch is 6.95m/s²

2) Speed is the rate of change of distance with respect to time.

average speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

Time = 100/7823

Time = 0.013s

3) Using the equation of motion v² = u²+2as

v² = 0²+2(15)(60)

v² = 30*60

v² =1800

v = √1800

v = 42.43m/s

In general heating up water Is easier because the water starts out colder, meaning that it will absorb heat easier. Once it is heated there is almost enough heat in there so it starts absorbing it at a slower rate, slowing down the process.
