Answer:

B) uniform

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Boyle's law, which states that:

<em>For a constant mass of an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume.</em>

Mathematically:

where

p is the pressure of the gas

V is its volume

If we apply the equation to the bottle in the problem, we see that:

- when the volume of the bottle (and therefore, of the gas inside) decreases, than the pressure will increase

- viceversa, when the volume of the bottle increases, the pressure will decrease

The amount by which the pressure increases is inversely proportional to the decrease in volume, so the answer depends on how the volume of the bottle decreases: however, if the volume of the bottle decreases uniformly, then we can say that the pressure inside the bottle will also increases uniformly.

Find the force between 2C and -1C separated by a distance 1m. Indicate if it is an attractive force (negative) or a repulsive fo

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Its definitely an Attractive force since the two charges are Unlike.

From Coulombs Law

F=kq1q2/R²

Given

K=9x10^9

R=1m

q1=2C

q2=-1C

F=(9x10^9 x 2 x -1)/1²

F= - 1.8x10^10N. (Attractive).

A weightlifter curls a 30 kg bar, raising it each time a distance of 0.60 m. How many times must he repeat this exercise to burn

Sholpan [36]

Answe

given,

mass of the bar, m = 30 Kg

distance of rise, h = 0.60 m

Assuming the efficiency = 25 %

energy from the pizza slice = 300 C = 1260 kJ

To consume Energy from the pizza bar is to be pulled several number of time.

( energy from pizza ) x (efficiency) = n m g h

n is the number of lift

( 1260 x 10³) x (0.25) = n x 30 x 9.8 x 0.6

$n = \dfrac{315\times 10^3}{176.4}$

n = 1786 times.

Weightlifter should lift bar 1786 times to burn off the energy.

Consider an e. coli to be a cylinder with a diameter of 1 micrometer (um) and with a length of 2 micrometer (um).

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

$A=6.28\ \mu m^2$

Part 1

$V=1.57 \ \mu m^3$

Part 2

$A=6.28\ \mu m^2$

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter,d=1 μm

Length ,l=2 μm

As we know that volume of cylinder given as

$V=\pi r^2l$

$V=\pi \times 0.5^2\times 2 \ \mu m^3$

$V=1.57 \ \mu m^3$

Surface area,A

A=π d l

$A=\pi \times 1 \times 2\ \mu m^2$

$A=6.28\ \mu m^2$

Part 1

$V=1.57 \ \mu m^3$

Part 2

$A=6.28\ \mu m^2$
