Answer:

pressure in cylinder A must be one third of pressure in cylinder B

Explanation:

We are told that the temperature and quantity of the gases in the 2 cylinders are same.

Thus, number of moles and temperature will be the same for both cylinders.

To this effect we will use the formula for ideal gas equation which is;

PV = nRT

Where;

P is prrssure

V is volume

n is number of moles

T is temperature

R is gas constant

We are told that Cylinder A has three times the volume of cylinder .

Thus;

V_a = 3V_b

For cylinder A;

Pressure = P_a

Volume = 3V_b

Number of moles = n

Thus;

P_a × 3V_b = nRT

For cylinder B;

Pressure = P_b

Volume = V_b

Number of moles = n

Thus,

P_b × V_b = nRT

Combining the equations for both cylinders, we have;

P_a × 3V_b = P_b × V_b

V_b will cancel out to give;

3P_a = P_b

Divide both sides by 3 to get;

P_a = ⅓P_b

Thus, pressure in cylinder A must be one third of pressure in cylinder B

D section a only still need help on this
SIZIF [17.4K]

Acceleration means speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. The graph doesn't show anything about direction, so we just have to examine it for speeding up or slowing down ... any change of speed.

The y-axis of this graph IS speed. So the height of a point on the line is speed. If the line is going up or down, then speed is changing.

Sections a, c, and d are all going up or down. Section b is the only one where speed is not changing. So we can't be sure about b, because we don't know if the track may be curving ... the graph can't tell us that. But a, c, and d are DEFINITELY showing acceleration.

Chameleon's tongue is more fast than thought. Its long sticky tongue moves at an amazing ballistic speed which lashes out unsuspecting insects and bugs. Now let us see how fast it is.

GIven:

acceleration of the chameleon's tongue- 260 m/s

constant speed 30 ms
50 ms total time
1/20 of a second

solution:

You plug in an extension cord and have to be very careful around the electrical outlet. However, you can handle the extension co
a_sh-v [17]
I believe that the best statement which explains why you can do this is C. <span>The extension cord is made of copper wire, which is a good conductor of electricity; however, it is covered with plastic, an insulator, which does not allow the electrical current to flow to you.
Copper is known to be one of the best conductors of electricity, and plastic can shield you from shock.

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume
olchik [2.2K]

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume increases to 30.0 ml, at constant temperature is 0.25atm.

On constant temperature, the pressure and volume relation become constant before and after the change in quantitities have occurred.

According to Boyle's Law,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

where, P₁ is pressure exerted by the gas initially

V₁ is the volume of gas initially

P₂ is pressure exerted by the gas finally

V₂ is the volume of gas finally

Given,

P₁ = 1.5 atm

V₁ = 5 ml

V₂ = 30 ml

P₂ =?

On substituting the given values in the above equation:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.5 atm × 5 ml = P₂ × 30 ml

P₂ = 0.25 atm

Hence, pressure exerted by the gas is 0.25atm.
