The gas in a balloon has p=1 pa and v=0.0279 m^3. if the pressure increases to 12 pa at constant temperature, what is the new volume of the balloon? ( hint: n and t are constant.) also (unit=m^3)

New volume of the baloon is 0.02325m^3

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to know the ideal gas law, which says:

p•V = n•R•T

p is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of substance (in moles), R is constant value and T is temperature.

Since it's stated that n and T are constant, and we know that R is a constant too, that means that p•V = constant value. Basically, that means that p1•V1 (pressure and volume before the pressure increase) equals to p2•V2 (pressure and volume after the pressure increase).

That means that:

100000 Pa • 0.0279 m^3 = 120000 Pa • V2. Next, V2= 100000•0.0279/120000. So, V2=0.02325m^3.

not too sure thinking it will always be directed towards the centre of the earth. could be wrong not sure

explanation:

as the height from which the ruler was dropped increased, the speed of the ruler at ryan's hand increased.
