Answer:

Dams store water, provide renewable energy and prevent floods. Unfortunately, they also worsen the impact of climate change. They release greenhouse gases, destroy carbon sinks in wetlands and oceans, deprive ecosystems of nutrients, destroy habitats, increase sea levels, waste water and displace poor communities.

A sample of nitrogen is initially at a pressure of 1.7 kPa, a temperature of -10 C and a volume of 7.5 m3. Then the volume is de

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{2.6 kPa}}$

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the Combined Gas Laws:

$\dfrac{p_{1}V_{1} }{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}V_{2} }{T_{2}}$

Data:

p₁ = 1.7 kPa; V₁ = 7.5 m³; T₁ = -10 °C

p₂ = ?; V₂ = 3.8 m³; T₂ = 200 K

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperature to kelvins

T₁ = (-10 + 273.15) K = 263.15 K

(b) Calculate the pressure

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1.7 \times 7.5 }{263.15} & = & \dfrac{p_{2} \times 3.8}{200}\\\\0.0485 & = & 0.0190p_{2}\\p_{2} & = & \textbf{2.6 kPa}\\\end{array}\\\text{The new pressure of the gas is \boxed{\textbf{2.6 kPa}}}$

If two separate containers A and B have the same volume and temperature, but container A has more gaseous molecules than B, then

topjm [15]

Answer:

Higher pressure, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The A will have a higher pressure. Since we have given the volume and temperature is same in both containers A and B. Below is the calculation for proof that shows which container has the higher pressure while keeping the volume and temperature the same.

$So, \ V_A = V_B \\\frac{n_A T_A}{P_A} = \frac{n_B T_B}{P_B} \\Here, \ T_A = T_B \\P_A = \frac{n_A}{n_B} \times P_B \\\frac{n_A}{n_B} > 1 \\\frac{P_A}{P_B} > 1 \\P_A > P_B \\$

Therefore, the container “A” will have higher pressure.

How is electricity and magnetism related

Lunna [17]

Electricity and Magnetism are related as electricity can actually make magnetic material (iron, nickel or silver) magnetic. This is called an electro magnet (a temporary magnet created by wrapping coils around a magnetic core (the electricity powers the coils, magnetising the material)).
