Situation 2: A NASA engineer wants to see if salt will reduce the amount of ice and snow buildup on the runway. She spread 200 lbs of salt on a test runway and simulates an airplane
landing by using test equipment. She then repeats the test on a runway without applying salt.

Situation 3: The tree house detectives want to see if different smells travel at the same speed.
They spray a can of hairspray, peppermint air freshener, and insect repellant at the same time.
Six friends stand around them in a large circle, five feet from the center of the circle where the
three tree house detectives stood.

Situation 4: The tree house detectives want to know if the candy making process affects the
odor given off by candy. To conduct the experiment, the help Dr. D make orange taffy candy.
Hypothesis:

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?
