as the temperature of a gas in a solid container increases what happens to the pressure exerted by the gas?

1 answer:

8 0

As the temperature increases, the average kinetic energy increases as does the velocity of the gas particles hitting the walls of the container. The force exerted by the particles per unit of area on the container is the pressure, so as the temperature increases the pressure must also increase.

Technician A says that a MAF sensor is a high-authority sensor and is responsible for determining the fuel needs of the engine b

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a. Technician A

Explanation:

Technician A says that a MAF sensor is a high-authority sensor and is responsible for determining the fuel needs of the engine based on the measured amount of air entering the engine. Technician B says that a cold wire MAF sensor uses the electronics in the sensor itself to heat a wire 20°C below the temperature of the air entering the engine. Who is right

MAF wich stands for mass airflow sensor determines the mass of air flowing into the engine's air intake system. ... , the wire cools When air flows past the wire, decreasing its resistance, thereby more current flows through the circuit. When the MAf goes bad, it can not sense the amount of air intake into the engine.

Why does a person feel cooler under a rotating fan?

sladkih [1.3K]

What a fan does is create a wind chill effect. ... By blowing air around, the fan makes it easier for the air to evaporate sweat from your skin, which is how you eliminate body heat. The more evaporation, the cooler you feel.

A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The average power is calculated as 735.0 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Total mass, M = 1200 kg

Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950

Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m

Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s

Now,

To calculate the average power:

First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:

Force, F = (M - m)g = $(1200 - 950)\times 9.8 = 2450 N$

Now, the work done by this force:

W = Fd = $2450\times 54 = 132300\ J = 132.3\ kJ$

Average power is given as:

$P_{avg} = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{132300}{180} = 735.0\ W$

4. Define resistance and describe what would happen to a light bulb if the voltage increased but the resistance stayed the same.

Arlecino [84]

Current would increase proportionally to voltage. Power dissipation (heating) would increase with the square of the voltage. And resistance means, "the refusal to accept or comply with something"

Una ola oceánica viaja a aproximadamente 1,97 m / s. Esto es 4 millas por hora. La frecuencia de las ondas es de aproximadamente

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

λ = 28,14 m

Explanation:

To find the wavelength of the wave you use the following formula:

$v=\lambda f$ (1)

v: speed of the wave = 1,97 m/s

λ: wavelength

f: frequency of the wave = 0,07 Hz

You replace the values of v and f in the equation (1) and solve for λ:

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{1,97m/s}{0,07Hz}=28,14m$

hence, the wavelength of the wave is 28,14 m
