According to Gayle Lusac's law, pressure is proportional to absolute temperature of a gas. Thus:
P/T = constant

So if the temperature becomes 3T, the pressure would increase to 3P

The men's world record for swimming 1500 m in a long course pool is 14 min 34.56 s. At this rate how many seconds would it take

vlabodo [156]

Distance = 1500m, time = 14min 34.56s = 14*60 + 34.56 = 874.56s

Speed = Distance / time = 1500/874.56 = 1.715 m/s

In order to swim 0.7 miles, 1 mile = 1609.344 m

Time = Distance / speed = 1609.344 m / 1.715 m/s = 938.393 seconds

938/60 = 15 minutes, 38 seconds.

= 15 minutes 38.393 seconds.

A balloon contains 2.0 L of air at 101.5 kPa . You squeeze the balloon to a volume of 0.25 L.

8_murik_8 [283]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

812 kPa

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

According to Boyle's law pressure and volume of a fixed mass are inversely proportional at constant absolute temperature.

Mathematically, $P\alpha \frac{1}{V}$

At varying pressure and volume;

P1V1=P2V2

In this case;

Initial volume, V1 = 2.0 L

Initial pressure, P1 = 101.5 kPa

Final volume, V1 = 0.25 L

We are required to determine the new pressure;

$P2=\frac{P1V1}{V2}$

Replacing the known variables with the values;

$P2=\frac{(101.5)(2.0L)}{0.25L}$

= 812 kPa

Thus, the pressure of air inside the balloon after squeezing is 812 kPa
