The statement is false. Vectors are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensional motion. Scalar quantities can be used to analyze linear motion problem, but not projectile motion.

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.37 L at 2.80×102 K and 1.15 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.68 L and

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

$p_2 = 1.76 atm$

Explanation:

given data:

v_1 = 2.37 L

v_2 = 1.68 L

p_1 =1.15 atm

p_2 = ?

t_1 = 280 K

t_2 = 304 K

from Gas Law Equation

, WE HAVE

$\frac{p_1 v_1}{t_1} =\frac{p_2 v_2}{t_2}$

Putting the values

$\frac{1.15*2.37}{280} =\frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}$

$9.733*10^{-3} = \frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}$

$9.733*10^{-3}*304 = p_2*1.68$

$\frac{9.733*10^{-3}*304}{1.68} =p_2$

$p_2= 1.76 atm$

two cars are moving at constant speeds in a straight line along a major highway. The first is travelling at 20ms^-1 and the seco

Reika [66]

Answer:

$t=750s$

Explanation:

The two cars are under an uniform linear motion. So, the distance traveled by them is given by:

$\Delta x=vt\\x_f-x_0=vt\\x_f=x_0+vt$

$x_f$ is the same for both cars when the second one catches up with the first. If we take as reference point the initial position of the second car, we have:

$x_0_1=6km\\x_0_2=0$

We have $x_f_1=x_f_2$ . Thus, solving for t:

$x_0_1+v_1t=x_0_2+v_2t\\x_0_1=t(v_2-v_1)\\t=\frac{x_0_1}{v_2-v_1}\\t=\frac{6*10^3m}{28\frac{m}{s}-20\frac{m}{s}}\\t=750s$
