Answer:

67 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume, V₁ = 25 cm³

Initial pressure, P₁ = 100 kPa

Final volume, V₂ = 15 cm³

We need to find the change in pressure of the gas. The relation between the volume and pressure of a gas is given by :

$P\propto \dfrac{1}{V}\\\\\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{100\times 25}{15}\\\\=166.66\ kPa$

= 167 kPa

The change in pressure,

= P₂ - P₁

= 167 kPa - 100 kPa

= 67 kPa

Hence, the correct option is (a).

A man does 4,780 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.70 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 25.5 m.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

(A) Velocity will be 1.88 m/sec

(b) Force will be 187.45 N

Explanation:

We have given work done = 4780 j

Distance d = 25.5 m

(A) Mass of the truck m = $m=2.70\times 10^3kg$

We know that kinetic energy is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

So $v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4780}{2.7\times 10^3}}=1.88m/sec$

(B) We know that work done is given by

W = Fd

So $F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{4780}{25.5}=187.45N$

If we have a one-electron atom, and the electron can occupy any of 5 different energy levels, and transitions are possible betwe

xeze [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lets say that a,b,c,d,e are the five allowed energy states in order of decreasing energy. Then the number of possible different spectral lines comes from the electron dropping from a high state to a lower state. So, they will do so in following ways:

a - b

a - c

a - d

a- e

b - c

b - d

b- e

c - d

c- e

d- e

Ans- Ten different possible energy jumps giving six different colors or lines in the spectrum.

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.

kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy $w = mg$ [m is the mass of the body]
