    Compression (and temperature) of a Jaguar XK8 Cylinder helpp

    ok well I've tried it a few times. I added the two amounts based on hint two but i guess that is wrong. Do i even incorporate gauge pressure? I canceled the atm pressure out since it'll be the same at the start and finish. So i took 499/27 = 46.2/? So I had (1/46.2)*(499/27) = .400...

    Compression (and temperature) of a Jaguar XK8 Cylinder helpp

    I've tried to take: 2.82 x 10 ^ 6 Pa * 499 cm ^ 3 / 27.0 C = 2.82 x 10 ^ 6 Pa * 46.2 cm ^ 3 / ? the question mark would be the final temperature. or am i way off with this? You guys got to understand that our teacher like doesn't teach us and i would learn way more if someone could give...

    Well would the temperature be greater? I am thinking it won't be now...

    Compression (and temperature) of a Jaguar XK8 Cylinder helpp

    Yes...and i have tried that in relation to plugging in the values that i do know in order to find the final temperature but my answers keep saying wrong! If the air has been compressed than we know that the temperature is greater. I don't really know what to do with the gauge pressure...

    Compression (and temperature) of a Jaguar XK8 Cylinder helpp

    The final temperature that it is at... here: Hint 1. How to approach the problem Use the ideal gas law to relate the initial pressure, temperature, and volume to their final values. Calculate the final temperature given the initial and final values in the introduction. Also, be very...

    Compression (and temperature) of a Jaguar XK8 Cylinder helpp

    1. A Jaguar XK8 convertible has an eight-cylinder engine. At the beginning of its compression stroke, one of the cylinders contains 499 cm^3 of air at atmospheric pressure (1.01 x 10 ^5 Pa) and a temperature of 27.0 C. At the end of the stroke, the air has been compressed to a volume of 46.2...

    A submerged ball pretty simple but im just learning this

    Nevermind. I solved it... (Mb * g) - (V * Pf * g) stupid mee haha

    A submerged ball pretty simple but im just learning this

    When i try this: (Mb * g) - (V * Pf) I get "The buoyancy term in your answer has dimensions of mass, not force."

    A submerged ball pretty simple but im just learning this

    So: Hint 2. Find the magnitude of the buoyant force Find , the magnitude of the buoyant force. Which i found to be: V * Pf * g and i know mass * acceleration = tension but i don't know how to combine all these terms in order to get a correct answer.

    A submerged ball pretty simple but im just learning this

    1. A ball of mass mass b and volume V is lowered on a string into a fluid of density Pf. Assume that the object would sink to the bottom if it were not supported by the string. What is the tension in the string when the ball is fully submerged but not touching the bottom. Solve using...

    A water tank on mars helpp pressure related

    sorry. I was confusing myself... So ..."Write an expression for the force exerted on the tank's bottom by the water in the tank. Keep in mind that the water tank is located on Mars, so weights depend on the acceleration due to gravity on that particular planet." Therefore i took the...

    A water tank on mars helpp pressure related

    Ok so i got the answer on the downward force by the air on the outside air on teh bottom of the tank. I took 88000 x 2.30 = 2.02 x 10^5 N But i still can't firgure out what the pressure would be on the bottom of the tank by the water in the tank... I took density * gravity * height to get...
