The particles of a GAS within a closed container will collide with the container walls, exerting a FORCE. The force per unit of AREA is known as what?
Answer:
Pressure
Explanation:
One of the theories propounded by the Kinetic molecular theory, and which also provides an explanation of the several gas laws, is the statement that the gas molecules in a container, travel in straight lines and are in constant collision with themselves and the walls of the container, thus exerting force. This force is the pressure which is defined as the force per unit area.
There is no loss of energy in the collisions involving the gas molecules and that is why their movement can be described as elastic. The descriptions of the behavior of gas molecules in the Kinetic Molecular Theory, give rise to Charles law, Boyle's Law, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's Law, and Amonton's Law.
Answer:
The pressure
Explanation:
Molecules of gases are constantly in motion, colliding with the walls of their container. This constant collision impacts force on the walls of the container, which depends on the speed with which the molecules are moving. The speed with which these molecules travel depends on the average kinetic energy of the molecules, which is proportional to the temperature.
This force when exerted per unit area is the pressure the gases exert on the walls of the container.

What two factors determine how much potential energy an object has?
Answer:
The mass of the object and its height in the gravitational field of the Earth.
Explanation:
If we are talking about gravitational potential energy which is defined as:
[tex]U=m\,*\,g\,*\,h[/tex]
being "m" the object's mass, "g" the acceleration due to gravity, and "h" the height at which the object is located relative to the conventionally picked level for zero of potential energy.
As long as the value of "g" is constant, the only two variables that determine the gravitational potential energy are the mass (m) of the object and its relative height (h).
Answer:
The objects weight and height above Earth's surface

If you have a 200g sample of a radioactive isotope that has a half life of 50 years, hc
much will you have left at the end of 200 years?
a. 12.5 g
b. 100 g
c. 50 g
d. 25 g
Answer:
The correct option is;
a. 12.5 g
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The initial mass of the radioactive substance = 200 g
The half life of the radioactive substance = 50 years
The time duration for the disintegration = 200 years
The formula for half life is given as follows;
[tex]N(t) = N_0 \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{t}{t_{1/2}}[/tex]
Where:
N(t) = Quantity of the remaining substance
N₀ = Initial radioactive substance quantity = 200 g
t = Time duration = 200 years
[tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] = Half life of the radioactive substance 50 years
Therefore, we have;
[tex]N(t) =200 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{200}{50} } =200 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^4 = 12.5 \ g[/tex]
Therefore, at the end of 200 years, the quantity left = 12.5 g.
Astronomers were at first surprised to find complicated molecules in the interstellar medium. They thought ultra-violet light from stars would break apart such molecules. What protects the molecules we observe from being broken apart
Answer:
The dust present in the clouds.
Explanation:
The complicated composition molecules that can be found in space are generally associated with clouds of dust. The significant amount of dust in these clouds provides protection not only for these molecules, but for any body that makes up or is associated with dust clouds.
It is exactly this dust that protects the molecules against the action of ultraviolet rays.

The ways to measure the mass and volume of irregular object
Answer:
When we have irregular objects, it may become very hard to calculate the volume of the object, as we actually can not use any simple equation to find it.
The mass is less tricky, just find a scale and wheight it, now we know the mass of the irregular object.
One way to measure the volume of the object is using water... how we do it?
Get some recipient with water, measure the height of the water.
Introduce your object into the water and totally submerge it, now the level of the water will rise. This is because as you introduce the object under the water, you are displacing up a given volume of water that has the same volume as the irregular object.
Now that you know the height of the water before and after you put your object, you can easily calculate the volume of water displaced, and that will be the volume of the object (the tricky part may be totally submerging the object if, for example, is wood and it floats, here you can use a thin wire to push it down but it will affect a little bit the measures.)

An average family of four uses roughly 1200 Liters of water per day (1L. - 1000 cm3). A lake that covers 50 km² with a uniform depth and
supplies water to a local town with a population of 40,000 people would lose depth every year due to water consumption form
the locals, Ignore evaporation, rain, creeks and rivers.
Answer:
#_total = 4.38 10⁹ liter
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use a direct proportion rule (rule of three). If 4 people use 1200 liters how much water 1 person consumes
#_water = 1 person (1200 liter / 4 person)
#water = 300 liters
Now we look for the consumption of this person in a year, if 1 person consumes 300 liters 1 day, how many liters they consume in a year (365 days)
#_water_person_total = 365 days (300 liters / 1 day)
#_water_person_total = 109500 liters
This is the water consumption of 1 person in a year, the total of 40000 people how much they consume
#_total = 40000 person (109500 liter / 1 person)
#_total = 4.38 10⁹ liter

i)Distinguish between different methods of charging. ii) You are provided with a positively charged gold leaf electroscope. State and explain what happens when a. a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of electroscope. b. an ebonite rod rubbed with fur is brought near the disc of electroscope. c. an uncharged metal rod is brought near the disc of electroscope d. a glass rod rubbed with silk is rolled on the disc of electroscope.
Answer:
Explanation:
On rubbing a glass rod with silk, the electrons from the glass rod get transferred to the silk. The silk now has an excess of electrons and so is negatively-charged. On the other hand, the glass rod is deficient in electrons and hence is positively-charged.
In the above case, the silk undergoes negative electrification.
Now, when the positively charged glass rod is touched on the disc of a negatively charged gold leaf electroscope, the electrons shifts towards rod, hence amount of charge on gold leaves decreases and the divergence between the gold leaves decreases as unlike charges attract each other.
Hence, the divergence decreases when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of negatively charged electroscope.

The period of a pendulum is the time it takes the pendulum to swing back and forth once. If the only dimensional quantities that the period depends on are the acceleration of gravity, g, and the length of the pendulum, ℓ, what combination of g and ℓ must the period be proportional to? (Acceleration has SI units of m • s-2.)
Answer: √(L/g)
Explanation:
Here we only work with the units:
The unit of the period is units of time, so we have:
[T] = [s]
Now, the units of the length of the pendulum are units of distance:
[L] = [m]
And the units of the acceleration are:
[g] = [m/s^2]
Now, we want to work with those two in such way that the end result is only in seconds.
First, we can see that in g we have seconds square, so we know that we should use a square root.
Then we can divide L by g in order to remove the distance unit, and to have the time unit in the numerator
[L/g] = [m*s^2/m] = [s^2]
Now we apply the square root:
[√(L/g)] = [√s^2] = [s]
Then the combination is: √(L/g)
T = k*√(L/g)
where k is the constant of proportionality.
The radius of a small ball is around 3.79747 cm. The radius of a basketball is about 3.16 times larger. What is the ratio of the surface areas of the small ball and a basketball? 2. What is the ratio of their volumes?
Explanation:
The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.
A/A = 3.16² = 9.99
The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.
V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6
Which statement describes one feature of Rutherford's model of the atom?
O The atom is mostly empty space.
O The atom cannot be divided into smaller particles.
O Electron clouds are regions where electrons are likely to be found.
O The electrons are located within the positive material of the nucleus.

A 1.00-kg glider attached to a spring with a force constant 25.0 N/m oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal air track. At t = 0, the glider is released from rest at x = -2.80 cm (that is, the spring is compressed by 2.80 cm). (a) Find the period of the glider's motion. How does the period depend on the mass and the spring constant? Does it depend on the amplitude of oscillation? s (b) Find the maximum values of its speed and acceleration. speed m/s acceleration m/s2 (c) Find the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time. (Where position is in m, velocity is in m/s, acceleration is in m/s2, and t is in s. Use the following as necessary: t.) x(t) = v(t) = a(t) =
Answer:
a) T = 1.26 s , b) v_max = 0.14 m / s , a_max = 0.7 m / s²
c) x = 0.028 cos (5 t) , v = - 0.14 sin 5t, a = - 0.7 cos 5t
Explanation:
This is a simple harmonic motion exercise that is described by the equation
x = A cos (wt +Ф)
with
w = √ (k / m)
let's apply this expression to our case
a) Angular velocity is related to frequency
w = 2π f
frequency and period are related
f = 1 / T
we substitute
2π / T = √ (k / m)
T = 2π √(m / k)
let's calculate
T = 2π √(1/25)
T = 1.26 s
In the expression for the period, the amplitude does not appear, therefore there is no dependence, as long as Hooke's law is fulfilled, which is correct for small amplitudes.
b) in the initial equation we have the position as a function of time, let's use the definition of speed and acceleration
v = dx / dt
v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)
the speed is maximum when the sine is -1
v_max = A w
w = √ (k / m)
w = √ 25/1
w = 5 rad / s
the amplitude of the movement is equal to the maximum compression of the spring
A = 2.8 cm = 0.028 m
we substitute
v_max = 0.028 5
v_max = 0.14 m / s
acceleration
a = dv / dt
a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)
the acceleration is maximum when the cosine is -1
a_max = A w²
let's calculate
a_max = 0.028 5²
a_max = 0.7 m / s²
c) let's start by finding the phase constant
v = -A w cos (wt + Ф)
at t = 0 they indicate that the system has v = 0
0 = -A w sin (0 + Ф)
Ф = sin⁻¹ 0
Ф = 0
we write the equation
x = 0.028 cos (5 t)
v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)
v = - 0.028 5 sin (5t + 0)
v = - 0.14 sin 5t
acceleration
a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)
a = - 0.028 5 2 cos (5 t + 0)
a = - 0.7 cos 5t
if you ran 15 km/hr for 2.5 hours, how much distance would you cover?
Answer: 37.5 km
Explanation:
The question is that
If you ran 15 km/hr for 2.5 hours, how much distance would you cover ?
Where
Speed = 15 km/ hr
Time = 2.5 hours
Using the formula for speed.
Speed = distance/time
Substitute speed and time into the formula
15 = distance/ 2.5
Make distance the subject of formula by cross multiplying.
Distance = 15 × 2.5
Distance = 37.5 km.
i) A 100 W and 60 W bulb are joined in series and connected to the mains. Which bulb
will glow brighter? Why?
ii) A 100 W and a 60 W bulb are joined in parallel to the mains. Which bulb will
glow brighter? Why?
Answer:
i) 60 W
ii) 100 W
Explanation:
In each case, the bulb that dissipates the most power is the bulb that glows brighter. Power is voltage times current (P = VI). Using Ohm's law, we can rewrite this as P = I²R or P = V²/R.
Bulbs are rated at a certain power for a certain voltage. P = V²/R, so the bulb with the lower resistance will have the higher power rating. Therefore, the 100 W bulb has a lower resistance than the 60 W bulb.
i) They are in series, so they have the same current. P = I²R, so the bulb with the higher resistance will glow brighter. That's the 60 W bulb.
ii) They are in parallel, so they have the same voltage. P = V²/R, so the bulb with the lower resistance will glow brighter. That's the 100 W bulb.
Hi please may someone help me especially on the sketch part.
An object falls from a hovering helicopter and hits the ground at a speed of 30 m/s. How long does it take the object to reach the ground and how far does it fall? Sketch a velocity-time graph for the object (ignore air resistance).
Ignoring the air resistance it will take about 3 seconds for the object to reach the ground.We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s2.
We also know that the final velocity is 30 m/s while the initial velocity is 0 m/s
we can use the formulae for acceleration to calculate the time taken/
(final - initial velocity)/timetaken=10
(30-0)/timetaken=10
timetaken =30/10=3 seconds

an object is +2 m from the reference point. the object starts from rest it travels for 3 seconds and has a final position of -16 m. what is the acceleration of the object?
Answer:
Solution
Given:
initial velocity (u)=0m/s (because an object
starts from the rest)
time (t)=3sec
diatance travelled(s)=14m(16-2=14)
acceleration (a)=?
Now,
According to the formula
s=ut+1/2at^2
or,14 =0×3+1/2×a×3^2
or, 14=0+a/2×9
or, 14=9a/2
or, 9a=28
or, a=28/9
or, a=3.1 m/s^2
Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 3.1m/s^2 ans.
I need help. can I get some
Explanation:
a) Acceleration is the slope of the velocity vs time graph. When velocity vs time is a straight line, that means the acceleration is a constant. F = ma, so the resultant force is also constant.
b) As air resistance increases, the acceleration begins to decrease.
c) A falling object stops accelerating when it reaches terminal velocity.
d) F = ma, so when the acceleration is 0, the resultant force is also 0.
