A rigid, 2.50 L bottle contains 0.458 mol He. The pressure of the gas inside the bottle is 1.83 atm. If 0.713 mol Ar is added to
stellarik [79]
<span>These are inert gases, so we can assume they don't react with one another. Because the two gases are also subject to all the same conditions, we can pretend there's only "one" gas, of which we have 0.458+0.713=1.171 moles total. Now we can use PV=nRT to solve for what we want.

The initial temperature and the change in temperature. You can find the initial temperature easily using PV=nRT and the information provided in the question (before Ar is added) and solving for T.

You can use PV=nRT again after Ar is added to solve for T, which will give you the final temperature. The difference between the initial and final temperatures is the change. When you're solving just be careful with the units!
 
SIDE NOTE: If you want to solve for change in temperature right away, you can do it in one step. Rearrange both PV=nRT equations to solve for T, then subtract the first (initial, i) from the second (final, f):

PiVi=niRTi --> Ti=(PiVi)/(niR)
 
PfVf=nfRTf --> Tf=(PfVf)/(nfR)

ΔT=Tf-Ti=(PfVf)/(nfR)-(PiVi)/(niR)=(V/R)(Pf/nf-Pi/ni)

In that last step I just made it easier by factoring out the V/R since V and R are the same for the initial and final conditions.</span>

Two billiard balls of equal mass are traveling straight toward each other with the same speed. They meet head-on in an elastic c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0 kg m/s before and after collision

Explanation:

Let m, v be the mass and speed of the 2 balls, respectively, before the collision. Since they have the same mass and same speed but in opposite direction, the total momentum of the system would be:

P = mv - mv = 0 kg m/s

As the collision is elastic. The total momentum after the collision is the same as the total momentum before the collision, which is 0.

An object weighs 200 newtons at a distance of 100 kilometers above the center of a small uniform planet. how much will the objec
disa [49]

Since the law of gravitation is an inverse square law if you quadruple the radius the f will drop by a factor of 16 SO the object would weigh 200/16 = 12.5N

In other words, as the distance, or radius, quadruples the weight becomes 1/16 of the original weight. Just plug in 4 for r and when you square it you get 16. The numerator is 1 so that is how the weight becomes 1/16.
