Because the temperature remains constant, we can apply Boyle's Law which states that
pV = constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume
Define the two states of the gas.
State 1
Pressure = p₁
Volume = 1000 ml
State 2
Pressure = p₂
Volume = 500 ml
Apply Boyle's law.
1000p₁ = 500p₂
2 = p₂/p₁
By halving the volume, the pressure doubles.
Answer:
The pressure increases by a factor of 2.
The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't
Answer:
The magnitude of the tension in the cable, T is 1,064.315 N
Explanation:
Here we have
Length of beam = 4.0 m
Weight = 200 N
Center of mass of uniform beam = mid-span = 2.0 m
Point of attachment of cable = Beam end = 4.0 m
Angle of cable = 53° with the horizontal
Tension in cable = T
Point at which person stands = 1.50 m from wall
Weight of person = 350 N
Therefore,
Taking moment about the wall, we have
∑Clockwise moments = ∑Anticlockwise moments
T×sin(53) = 350×1.5 + 200×2
T = 850/sin(53) = 1,064.315 N.
Answer:
the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the car, u = 50 m/s
distance traveled by the car, s = 20 m
final velocity of the after coming to rest, v = 0
mass of the passenger, m = 90 kg
Determine the acceleration of the car as it hit the pile of dirt;
v² = u² + 2as
0 = 50² + (2 x 20)a
0 = 2500 + 40a
40a = -2500
a = -2500/40
a = -62.5 m/s²
The deceleration of the car is 62.5 m/s²
The force exerted on the passenger by the backward action of the car is calculated as follows;
F = ma
F = 90 x 62.5
F = 5625 N
Therefore, the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
