Answer:

0.444atm

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (

P2 = final pressure (

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to this question,

P1 = 101.3 kPa = 101.3 × 0.00987 = 0.999atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 80L

V2 = 160L (double of V1)

T1 = 34°C = 34 + 273 = 307K

T2 = 0°C = 0 + 273 = 273K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

0.999 × 80/307 = P2 × 160/273

79.92/307 = 160P2/273

Cross multiply

307 × 160P2 = 79.92 × 273

49120P2 = 21818.16

P2 = 21818.16 ÷ 49120

P2 = 0.444

P2 = 0.444atm

Describe the movement of air over 2 nearby land areas, one of which is heated more than the other.
77julia77 [94]
In this case, the air from the warm area will always start moving towards the colder areas because as the temperature in both lands should be equal. This is one of the laws of thermodynamics.

A golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and at an angle of 35 degrees. How long was the ball in the air? Rou
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

3.6 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = y = 0 m

v₀ = 31 sin 35° m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 0 + (31 sin 35°) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

0 = 17.78t − 4.9t²

0 = t (17.78 − 4.9t)

t = 0 or 3.63

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the ball lands after 3.6 seconds.

A mine elevator is supported by a single steel cable 0.0125 m in diameter. The total mass of the elevator cage and occupants is
Sonja [21]

Answer:

0.8895m

Explanation:

Cable diameter = 0.0125m

Mass of elevator = 6450kg

Young Modulus(E) = 2.11*10¹¹N/m

∇l (change in length) =

L = 362m

A = Πr², but r = d / 2 = 0.0125 / 2 = 0.00625m

A = 3.142 * (0.00625)² = 1.227*10^-4m²

Young Modulus (E) = Tensile stress / Tensile strain

E = (F / A) / ∇l / L

F = mg = 6450 * 9.8 = 63210N

2.11*10¹¹ = (63210 / 1.22*10^-4) / (∇l / 362)

2.11*10¹¹ = 5.18*10⁸ / (∇l / 362)

2.11*10¹¹ = (5.18*10⁸ * 362) / ∇l

2.11*10¹¹ = 1.875*10¹¹ / ∇l

∇l = 1.875*10¹¹ / 2.11*10¹¹

∇l = 0.8895m

The change in length is 0.8895m
