Because way back, when there were some kinds of plants that made

You have a 3.00-liter container filled with N₂ at 25°C and 4.45 atm pressure connected to a 2.00-liter container filled with Ar

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer : The final pressure in the two containers is, 2.62 atm

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

Thus, the expression for final pressure in the two containers will be:

$PV=P_1V_1+P_2V_2$

$P=\frac{P_1V_1+P_2V_2}{V}$

where,

$P_1$ = pressure of N₂ gas = 4.45 atm

$P_2$ = pressure of Ar gas = 2.75 atm

$V_1$ = volume of N₂ gas = 3.00 L

$V_2$ = volume of Ar gas = 2.00 L

P = final pressure of gas = ?

V = final volume of gas = (4.45 + 2.75) L = 7.2 L

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$P=\frac{(4.45atm)\times (3.00L)+(2.75atm)\times (2.00L)}{7.2L}$

$P=2.62atm$

Thus, the final pressure in the two containers is, 2.62 atm

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

a) Θ = ω₀*t + ½αt² To complete first revolution 2π rads = 0*t + ½αt² and to complete the first and second combined 4π rads = 0*t + ½α(t+0.810s)² Divide second by first: 2 = (t + 0.810s)² / t² This is quadratic in t and has roots at t = -0.336 s ← ignore and t = 1.96 s ◄ b) Use either equation from above: 2π rads = 0*t + ½α(1.96s)² α = 3.27 rad/s² ◄ Hope this helps!

Rotational dynamics about a fixed axis: A person pushes on a small doorknob with a force of 5.00 N perpendicular to the surface

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

I = 2 kgm^2

Explanation:

In order to calculate the moment of inertia of the door, about the hinges, you use the following formula:

$\tau=I\alpha$ (1)

I: moment of inertia of the door

α: angular acceleration of the door = 2.00 rad/s^2

τ: torque exerted on the door

You can calculate the torque by using the information about the Force exerted on the door, and the distance to the hinges. You use the following formula:

$\tau=Fd$ (2)

F: force = 5.00 N

d: distance to the hinges = 0.800 m

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for α:

$Fd=I\alpha\\\\I=\frac{Fd}{\alpha}$

Finally, you replace the values of all parameters in the previous equation for I:

$I=\frac{(5.00N)(0.800m)}{2.00rad/s^2}=2kgm^2$

The moment of inertia of the door around the hinges is 2 kgm^2
