convection
radiation
transfer

15. A gas occupies 500 in3
at an absolute pressure of 40.0 lb/in2. What is the volume when the absolute pressure is increased to 100 lb/in2? (Points: 6)
400 in3
300 in3
200 in3
50 in3

Anything will help!

Explanation / Answer

8) Power of the elevator = Work/time Power of the elevator = weight*height/time Power of the elevator = 500 lb * 50 ft / 10 s Power of the elevator = 2500 ft-lb/s 9) Speed of the bullet v = sqrt(2KE/m) v = sqrt(2*3150 J/ 0.06 kg) v = 324 m/s 10) Using Pascal's principle F1/A1 = F2/A2 50 N/10 cm^2 = 4800 N/A2 A2 = 960 cm^2 11) The bouyant force = weight in air - weight in water The bouyant force = 81 lb - 68 lb The bouyant force = 13 lb 13)The water coolant in a car engine that carries hot water from the engine block to the radiator is an example of cooling by convection 15) According the ideal gas law P1V1 = P2V2 40 lb/in^2 * 500 in^3 = 100 lb/in^2 * V2 V2 = 200 in^3
