A sample of helium has a volume of 5 liters at a pressure of 300 torr. What volume does the gas occupy at 500 torr?
marysya [2.9K]

The final volume of the gas is 3 L

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Boyle's law, which states that:

"For a gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume"

Mathematically:

PV=const.

where

P is the pressure of the gas

V is its volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

P_1 V_1 = P_2 V_2

For the sample of helium in this problem, we have:

P_1 = 300 torr

V_1 = 5 L

P_2 = 500 torr

Solving the equation, we can find V_2, the final volume of the gas:

V_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1}{P_2}=\frac{(300)(5)}{500}=3 L

Suppose that a 117.5 kg football player running at 6.5 m/s catches a 0.43 kg ball moving at a speed of 26.5 m/s with his feet of
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

<em>a) 6.57 m/s</em>

<em>b) 53.75 J </em>

<em>c) 6.37 m/s</em>

<em>d) -98.297 J</em>

Explanation:

mass of player = m_{p} = 117.5 kg

speed of player = v_{p} = 6.5 m/s

mass of ball = m_{b} = 0.43 kg

velocity of ball = v_{b} = 26.5 m/s

Recall that momentum of a body = mass x velocity = mv

initial momentum of the player = mv = 117.5 x 6.5 = 763.75 kg-m/s

initial momentum of the ball = mv = 0.43 x 26.5 = 11.395 kg-m/s

initial kinetic energy of the player = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2} x 117.5 x 6.5^{2} =  2482.187 J

a) according to conservation of momentum, the initial momentum of the system before collision must equate the final momentum of the system.

for this first case that they travel in the same direction, their momenta carry the same sign

m_{p}v_{p} + m_{b}v_{b} = (m_{p} +m_{b})v

where v is the final velocity of the player.

inserting calculated momenta of ball and player from above, we have

763.75 + 11.395 = (117.5 + 0.43)v

775.145 = 117.93v

v = 775.145/117.93 = <em>6.57 m/s</em>

b) the player's new kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2} x 117.5 x 6.57^{2} = 2535.94 J

change in kinetic energy = 2535.94 - 2482.187 = <em>53.75 J  gained</em>

c) if they travel in opposite direction, equation becomes

m_{p}v_{p} - m_{b}v_{b} = (m_{p} +m_{b})v

763.75 - 11.395 = (117.5 + 0.43)v

752.355 = 117.93v

v = 752.355/117.93 =<em> 6.37 m/s</em>

d) the player's new kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2} x 117.5 x 6.37^{2}  = 2383.89 J

change in kinetic energy = 2383.89 - 2482.187 = -98.297 J

that is <em>98.297 J  lost</em>
