Can you add more information to this question?
The answer is true: the pressure of a gas will decrease as temperature decreases in a rigid container.
This is one of the central gas laws called the Gay-Lussac law that states for a given gas at a constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature. We also know that as temperature reduces, so too does molecular interaction. Increased temperature results in increased pressure, and decreased temperature therefore results in decreased pressure.
An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”
Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.
Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)
Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?
You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
1. 31,536,000 seconds
2. Car B traveled a longer distance
3. Volume of box = 0.235887 cubic meters
Explanation:
Q1. Age in seconds
1 year = 365 days
1 day = 24 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
Therefore 1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds
In scientific notation this would be
Q2. Comparing km and miles
Given:
1 km = 1000m and 1 m = 3.3ft, I km = 1000 x 3.3 = 3300 ft.
Convert Car A distance of 25.7km to feet :
25.7 km. = 25. 7 x 3300 ft. = 84,810 ft.
For Car B that traveled 20 miles,
20 miles = 20 x 5280 = 105,600 ft.
Since 105,600 > 84,810, car B traveled a longer distance
Q3. Volume of wooden box
The wooden box is in the shape of a rectangular prism
It volume is L x W x H
Volume = 1.525 x 0.30 x 0.5156 = 0.235887 cubic meters
