let the actual height of car be x

now, according to question,

$\dfrac{1}{15} = \dfrac{8}{x}$

$x = 15 \times 8$

$x = 120 \: \: cm$

$height \: \: of \: \: car = 120 \: cm \: \: or \: \: 1.2 \: \: m$

A gas expands from a volume of 2.00L at 36.0oC to a volume of 2.50 L, what is the final temperature, if the pressure is constant

lakkis [162]

We shall consider V, the volume and T, the temperature.
According to Boyle's Laws:
$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}$
In our case:
$\frac{2.00}{36.0} = \frac{2.50}{T2} =\ \textgreater \ T2= \frac{2.50*36.00}{2.00} = 45$
