An air rifle shoots a lead pellet by allowing high-pressure air to expand, propelling the pellet down the rifle barrel. Because this process happens very quickly, no appreciable thermal conduction occurs and the expansion is essentially adiabatic. Suppose the rifle starts with 11.5 cm^3 of compressed air, which behaves as an ideal gas with γ = 1.40. The expanding air pushes a 1.25-g pellet as a piston with cross-sectional area 0.0175 cm^2 along the 49.0-cm-long gun barrel.
1. What initial pressure is required to eject the pellet with a muzzle speed of 110 m/s? Ignore the effects of the air in front of the bullet and friction with the inside walls of the barrel.

An electron is ejected into a horizontal uniform e⃗ field at a parallel horizontal velocity of v0. assume the electron's initial position x0, initial velocity v0, time t, magnitude of electric field e, electron's mass m, and the magnitude of the electron's charge |e|. ignore the force that earth exerts on the electron. assume the e⃗ field is in the same direction as the initial velocity. part a define the equation for the electron's velocity. express your answer in terms of the variables v0, |e|, t, e, and m.
