A balloon is filled with 80 liters of gas on a day where the temperature was 34 degrees at sea level which is 101.3 kPa and rele

ased. As the balloon rises to a certain altitude, the temperature drops to 0 degrees celsius and the balloon doubles in volume. What is the atmospheric pressure at that altitude?

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

A truck, initially at rest, rolls down a frictionless hill and attains a speed of 20 m/s at the bottom. To achieve a speed of 40
Crank

Answer:

To achieve the velocity of 40 m/sec height will become 4 times  

Explanation:

We have given initially truck is at rest and attains a speed of 20 m/sec

Let the mass of the truck is m

At the top of the hill potential energy is mgh and kinetic energy is \frac{1}{2}mv^2

So total energy at the top of the hill =mgh+0=mgh

At the bottom of the hill kinetic energy is equal to \frac{1}{2}mv^2 and potential energy will be 0

So total energy at the bottom of the hill is equal to 0+\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Form energy conservation mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{2gh}, for v = 20 m/sec

20=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times h}

Squaring both side

19.6h=400

h = 20.408 m

Now if velocity is 0 m/sec

40=\sqrt{2gh}

19.6h=1600

h = 81.63 m

So we can see that to achieve the velocity of 40 m/sec height will become 4 times
