Arigid tank of air is cooled (temperature decreased). the volume has to remain constant because it is a rigid tank. the air pressure in the rigid tank a. increases b. decreases c. stays the same

The air pressure in the rigid tank Decreases.

Explanation:

A rigid tank is said to be a region where volume is always considered as a constant. During the process of cooling the rigid tank where the temperature is said to be decreased, the effect of air pressure in the tank also decreases.

Because, PV = RT, where P is the pressure, T is temperature, R is constant, V is the volume. Hence pressure is directly proportional to temperature.

hey , the answer is c

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.
