Find your answer in the explanation below.
Explanation:
PV = nRT is called the ideal gas equation and its a combination of 3 laws; Charles' law, Boyle's law and Avogadro's law.
According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e V = 1/P
From, Charles' law, we have that volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant pressure. i.e V = T
Avogadro's law finally states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. i.e V = n
Combining the 3 Laws together i.e equating volume in all 3 laws, we have
V = nT/P,
V = constant nT/P
(constant = general gas constant = R)
V = RnT/P
by bringing P to the LHS, we have,
PV = nRT.
Q.E.D
Answer:
Lowering the object near the ground decreases its <u>potential energy.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Potential Energy : Energy possessed by the object due to its shape ,Size and Position is called potential energy.
Example :
Change in shape and size : When you compress the spring , potential energy is introduced in it . So it expand quickly when you remove your hand.
Change in position : when you swing , after attaining maximum height (extreme ends) , the swing comes back on its on .This is because at maximum height ,the swing has<u> maximum Potential energy . </u>Hence it fall back on its on because it already has potential energy.
Potential energy(P) is given by the formula :
P = mgh
where ,
m= mass of the object
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height of the object from the ground
If the height of the object increases from the ground , its potential energy also get increase.
<u><em>On lowering the object The height of the object from the ground reduces . So potential energy also reduces.</em></u>
The atmospheric pressure will be:
The pressure of the atmosphere resulting from the mercury column is 0.959 atm
What is atmospheric pressure?
The force that an object experiences from the weight of the air above it per unit area are known as atmospheric pressure.
Given: Height of mercury column = 729 mm Hg
To find: The pressure of the atmosphere
Calculation:
The atmospheric column resulting from the mercury column is calculated as follows:
1 atm =760 mm Hg
So, we can convert the 729 mm Hg to atm, and we get
Atmospheric pressure = 729 x 1 atm / 760 = 0.959 atm
