Air is trapped in a cylinder fitted with a piston that occupies 150.5 mL at 1.12 atm pressure. What is the new volume when the piston is depressed, increasing the pressure by 15%?

New volume V2 = 120.4 ml

Explanation:

Given:

Pressure P1 = 1.12 atm

New pressure P2 = 1.12[1+0.25] = 1.4 atm

Old volume V1 = 150.5 ml

Find:

New volume V2

Computation:

P1V1 = P2V2

(1.12)(150.5) = (1.4)(V2)

V2 = 120.4 ml

New volume V2 = 120.4 ml

explanation:

crosscutting concepts have application across all domains of science. as such, they are a way of linking the different domains of science. they include patterns; cause and effect; scale, proportion, and quantity; systems and system models; energy and matter; structure and function; and stability and change.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
