For idea gases, volume is directly proportional to temperature. That is, an increase in temperature leads to increase in volume and vice versa.
Therefore,
V1/T1 = V2/T2 => T2 = (V2*T1)/V1
Assuming that the balloon is spherical in shape,
V= 4/3*pi*R^3.... In the formula for calculating T2, 4/3*pi cancels out.
R1 = 30/2 15 cm; R2 = 30.5/2 = 15.25 cm; T1 = 20+273.15 =293.15 K
Therefore,
T2 = (R2^3*T1)/R1^3 = (15.25^3*293.15)/15^3 = 308.05 K = 34.9 °C
Answer:
The lightbulb will NOT light.
Explanation:
You put me in a difficult position. I can't help it, but the "sample answer" is by far the best way to explain this, briefly and correctly. There's no other choice but to copy it.
This is a short circuit. The branch without the bulb has almost no resistance, so all the current will flow through that branch instead of flowing through the bulb.
<em>If</em> the lower switch were <u>opened</u>, THEN we would have a series circuit. Current would no longer have any other choice but to flow through the bulb, and the bulb would light.
Mechanical waves transfer energy by inducing vibrations in the propagation medium.
