Why should we wait a little after changing the volume of the trapped gas and then take the readings??

Physics

marta [7]2 years ago

We wait a little after changing the volume of the trapped gas, to make sure that is the gas is back to room temperature.

<h3>Boyle's law</h3>

This law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure provided that temperature remains constant.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

<h3>Why we wait a little </h3>

We wait a little after changing the volume of the trapped gas, to make sure that is the gas is back to room temperature because a change in temperature can alter the accuracy of the experiment.

In which of the following cases is work being done on an object? Question 2 options: Pulling a trailer up a hill Carrying a box
Taya2010 [7]

Work is done when a force acts on an object AND the object moves in the direction of the force.

-- <em>Pulling a trailer up a hill.  YES. </em> The trailer is moving in the direction of the pulling force.  

-- Carrying a box down a corridor.  No. The box is not moving in the direction of gravity (down) OR in the direction of your arm (down the corridor).

-- Suspending a heavy weight with a strong chain,  No.  There's a force (gravity) acting on the weight, but the weight is not moving at all.

-- Pushing against a locked door.  No.  There's a force (your muscles) acting on the door, but he door is not moving at all.

An aircraft component is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 40 mpa m (36.4 ksi in.
GarryVolchara [31]
We will first determine using the given if an aircraft component will fracture with a given stress level (260 MPa), maximum internal crack length (6.0 mm) and fracture toughness (40 MPa m ), given that fracture occurs for the same component using the same alloy for another stress level and internal crack length. First, it is necessary to solve for the parameter Y, using Equation 8.5, for the conditions under which fracture occurred (i.e., σ = 300 MPa and 2 a = 4.0 mm). Therefore,

 Y = K(Ic)/ sqrt(π a) = 40 MPa( m ) / (300 MPa) sqrt(( π ) ((4 × 10-3 m)/2)) = 1.68 

We will now solve for the product Y σ π a for the other set of conditions, so as to ascertain whether or not this value is greater than the K(Ic) for the alloy. Thus, 

Y sqrt(π a) = (1.68)(260 MPa) sqrt (( π )[(6 × 10^-3 m)/ 2])
                  = 42.4 MPa sqrt (m) (39 ksi in. ) 

Therefore, fracture will occur since this value ( 42.4 MPa sqrt(m)) is greater than the K(Ic) of the material, 40 MPa sqrt(m).

A proton travels with a speed of 4.2×106 m/s at an angle of 30◦ west of north. A magnetic field of 2.5 T points to the north. Fi
Arada [10]

Answer:

8.4\cdot 10^{-13} N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is given by:

F=qvB sin \theta

where:

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C is the proton charge

v=4.2\cdot 10^6 m/s is the proton velocity

B=2.5 T is the magnetic field

\theta=30^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of v and B

Substituting into the formula, we find

F=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)(4.2\cdot 10^6 m/s)(2.5 T) sin 30^{\circ}=8.4\cdot 10^{-13} N
