Sam's bike tire contains 15 units of air particles and has a volume of 160mL. Under these conditions the pressure reads 13 psi.

The tire develops a leak. Now it contains 10 units of air particles and has contracted to a volume of 150mL. What would the tire pressure be now?

Use ideal gas equation, with T constant.

pV =nRT => pV / n = RT = constant

n = K* [units of particles]

pV / [units of particles] = constant

13 psi * 160 mL / 15 units = p * 150 mL / 10 units =>

=> p = [13psi*160mL/15units]*[10units/150mL] = 9.2 psi

You are called as an expert witness to analyze the following auto accident: Car B, of mass 2100 kg, was stopped at a red light w
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force of friction at car B ( break was applied by car B ) =μ mg = .65 x  2100 X 9.8  = 13377 N .

work done by friction = 13377 x 7.30 = 97652.1 J

If v be the common velocity of both the cars after collision

kinetic energy of both the cars = 1/2 ( 2100 + 1500 ) x v²

= 1800 v²

so , applying work - energy theory ,

1800 v² = 97652.1

v² = 54.25

v = 7.365 m /s

This is the common velocity of both the cars .

To know the speed of car A , we shall apply law of conservation of momentum  .Let the speed of car A before collision be v₁ .

So , momentum before collision = momentum after collision of both the cars

1500 x v₁ = ( 1500 + 2100 ) x 7.365

v₁ = 17.676 m /s

= 63.63 mph .

( b )

yes Car A was crossing speed limit by a difference of

63.63 - 35 = 28.63 mph.

Suppose a convex mirror has a focal length of 120 cm. A candle sits directly in front of the mirror. If the image of that candle
Andru [333]
We can solve the problem by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}
where
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

For the sign convention, the focal length is taken as negative for a convex mirror:
f=-120 cm
and the image is behind the mirror, so virtual, therefore its sign is negative as well:
d_i=-24 cm
putting the numbers in the mirror equation, we find the distance of the object from the mirror surface:
\frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{d_i}= \frac{1}{-120 cm} - \frac{1}{-24 cm}= \frac{1}{30 cm}
So, the distance of the object from the mirror is d_o = 30 cm
