During the expansion of a gas in piston-cylinder the relation between the pressure and the volume is given as

Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer: The relationship between the pressure and the volume is given as P=K/V or PV= K. (Pressure increases as Volume decreases).

Explanation:

When gas is trapped in an enclosed medium for example a cylinder by a piston. When the piston is pushed in, the gas particles will have less room to move as the VOLUME the gas occupies has been DECREASED. This will automatically lead to frequent collision of the has particles with the wall of the container. The collision exerts forces which leads to INCREASED PRESSURE.

This obeys the Boyle's law which states that the volume occupied by a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure, provided temperature is kept constant. This can be mathematically expressed below:

PV=K, where K is constant

P1 V1=P2 V2

Where,

P1= initial pressure

V1= initial Volume

P2= final pressure

V2= final Volume.

Therefore, increasing pressure from initial pressure to final pressure means that initial volume will change to final volume, providing the temperature remains constant.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

We are given x= bt +ct²

So

A. bxt= m

Because m/s*s= m

So b= m/s and c= m/s²

B.

x= bt-ct²

So at x=0 t=0

x=0 t= 2

We have

bt = ct² so t = b/c at x= 0

So b-2ct= 0

B. To find velocity we use

dx / dt = b - 2 Ct

C. At rest wen V= 0

We have t= b/2c

D. To find acceleration we use

dv / dt = - 2C

Why are eight electrons (four pairs) surrounding each non-hydrogen atom the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecule
rodikova [14]

Eight electrons surrounding each non-hydrogen atom is the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecules because it is needed to achieve an octet structure and is necessary to fill both the s and p subshells of electrons.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This is the type of bonding which involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of an element.

This is done to achieve an octet configuration thereby making them stable and less reactive thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Approximately how much time does it take the ball to travel from the release loc
zvonat [6]

I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s.  Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.

So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.

Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip.  After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it.  In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.
