a cylinder is filled with 10. 0 L of gas and a piston is put into it. The initial preasure of the gas is measured to be 138 kPa.
The piston is now pushed down compressing the gas until the gas has a final volume of 8.30 L calculate the final pressure of the gas be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
First you need to convert the cylinder to a boot, then you can successfully compress the water into the tip of the boot, preventing it from busting.
Explanation:
To convert a cylinder to a boot, simply multiply the circumference of the cylinder by 1.3125768927, or 1.31. The .31 is the extra space taken in by the tip of the boot.
