A gas occupies a volume of 20 cubic meters at 9,000 pascals. If the pressure is lowered to 5,000 pascals, what volume will the gas occupy?

Answers

We need to consider no change in the temperature of gas (isothermal transformation)

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional magnitudes, so we can write:

P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2\n \n 9.20=5.V_2\n \n V_2=(180)/(5)=36 \ m^3

When a marble is at rest what happened

Answers

The marble will stay in place until another force pushes it

Answer: the marble will remain in place at a constant velocity of zero

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that a body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion in a straight line at a constant velocityunless acted upon by an outside force

A thin conducting plate 50.0 cm on a side lies in the xy plane. If a total charge of 4.00 ? 10 ?8 C is placed on the plate, find (a) the charge density on the plate, (b) the electric field just above the plate, and (c) the electric field just below the plate.

Answers

Answer:

a) 8*10^-8C/m²

b) +9.04*10^3N/C

c) = -9.04*10^3N/C

Explanation:

Given

Side length, L = 50cm = 0.5m

Charge on the plate, Q = 4*10^-8C

Surface charge density, σ = Q/A

The surface charge density of each part is then half of the total charge density of the plate. Thus,

σ(face) = 1/2σ

σ(face) = Q/2A

σ(face) = Q/2L²

Now we plug in, since we have Q and L

σ(face) = 4*10^-8 / 2*0.5²

σ(face) = 4*10^-8 / 0.5

σ(face) = 8*10^-8C/m²

Magnitude of electric field above the plate is,

E = σ(face) / E•

E = 8*10^-8 / 8.85*10^-12

E = 9.04*10^3 N/C

If we assume this plate lies on the side of the "xy" plane, the electric field is directed in the positive "z" direction. As such,

E = +9.04*10^3N/C

Electric field below the plate has the same magnitude, but different direction. So, E = -9.04*10^3N/C

Density is ____ per unit volume.

Answers

Answer:

mass

Explanation:

The density of a substance is defined as the ratio of mass of the substance to the volume of the substance.

It is a scalar quantity.

Density = (mass)/(volume)

Its SI unit is kg/m^3.

By comparing the densities we get the idea about how dense the substance is.

For example, cotton and iron, the density of cotton is much less than iron so the cotton is less dense than iron.

The relative density is defined as the ratio of density of substance to the density of water at 4 degree C.

The density of water is maximum at 4 degree C.  

Final answer:

Density is the mass per unit volume.

Explanation:

Density is a physical property of matter that describes the mass of a substance per unit volume. It is typically expressed in units like grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per cubic meter. Density helps identify and compare substances, as objects with higher density are heavier for a given volume, while less dense substances are lighter.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance or object, defined as p = m/V. The SI unit of density is kg/m³. For many situations, grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) are used for the densities of solids and liquids, and grams per liter (g/L) are used for gases.

Which mathematical relationship best describes a graph of gravitational field strength versus distance? (one of the 3 pictures attached or none of the above?)

Answers

The gravitational force between two masses is proportional to

                               (mass-1) x (mass-2) / (the distance between them)-squared

Do you see (distance-squared) in the denominator there ?

That steers you straight to the function [ y proportional to 1/x² ] ... in the middle.
gravitationnal field between two objets = k.m1.m2/d² 
none of the above
the graph is something like that
