Question

This quiz is open book and open notes but is designed to follow along with the Mechanical Universe Video "Temperature and The Gas Law (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v eZdUKMD &list-PL8; xPUSepJddRABXqUShSGOdk- XGtAScZ&index; 45). Put all answers in the space provided. This will be due at the beginning of our next class meeting. 1. What happens to the table when Dr. Goodstein drops the block on it? 2. What is temperature measured in terms of and what is needed to measure temperature effectively? 3. What temperature does water freeze at and boil for both scales used in the video? 4. What is responsible for holding the piston up in the computer simulation? What is heat? . What is the equation for pressure? 7 Who was accused of "putting to too much physics into his chemistry 8. What is Boyle's Law? 9 What is the lowest possible temperature and what does it mean to be at this temperature?

Explanation / Answer

8: Boyle's law
At constant temperature inside a closed system, the boyle's law states that the pressure and the volume are inversely proportional for a given mass of confined gas. Mathematically, it is describes as P1V1 =P2V2

9: The lowest possible temperature is -273.15 Celsius. At this temp, the molecules do not have any motion as all the molecular kinetic energy and thermal energy becomes negligible or close to 0. At this temp, the system is in its lowest possible energy state.

10: Temp in Kelvin = temp in celsius scale + 273.15

11: Gas can be viewed as a collection of atoms which are in random motion due to their kinetic energies and as well as due to thermal motion. This random motion causes these atoms to spread and occupy a certain volume depending on temperature. The pressure of the gas is due to the the aforce exerted by the atoms on the container in which the gas is kept and the constant collisions these atoms go through with each other and as well as with the walls of the container.
