I'm pretty sure I got the first step right, but I'm really struggling with the second step. I think I set up the equation correctly, but when it comes to actually solving, I'm not getting the steps right. Can you please list out step by step how to solve the equation in part 2, assuming I got that equation right. I've attached the problem, as well as my work.

- In the example shown in the figure, (Figure 1) the "container" is a cylinder whose volume changes as the piston slides in or out. Suppose a gas is confined within the cylinder. The pressure of the gas is p, and the area of the cylinder is A. Consider the work done as the gas expands, pushing the piston to the right. Call the small distance that the piston moves Δx. a)What force F does the gas exert on the piston? (Note that the positive x axis is to the right in the figure.) Express the force in terms of p, A, and any constants. b)If the piston moves a small distance Δx, what is W, the work done by the gas? Express the work done by the gas in terms of Δx and other given quantities. c)What is ΔV, the increase in volume of the gas? Express the increase in volume in terms of Δx and other given quantities.arrow_forwardThe question I need to be answered is 1B (the second picture). I included the first question because some of the information from it is the same. Thanks!arrow_forwardI need more detail about my answer, so watch the professor's comment and write your solution more detail. 2. A cylindrical object—with radius R, length L, and density ??—sits on a scale at the bottom of vat of fluid with density??.a. Draw and label a free body diagram for the object. (Don’t forget to set up a coordinate system and to label the acceleration info. Also, be sure to use the gridlines to help you draw arrows that show the correct directions and relative magnitudes of the forces. Finally, be sure to label your forces clearly to indicate the types of forces.)b. Use Newton’s 2nd Law to derive an expression for the reading on the scale.arrow_forward
- Please explain it short and easy to understand (The picture is what the experiment look like) (Please don't explain it by giving the formulas because I don't understand) It is all related. What is the effect of increasing and decreasing the altitude where the experiment takes place? Why? (I really don't understand this question because it does not change anything when increase or decrease it) What is the effect of increasing or decreasing the mass of the cannon ball?(I think the effect is that with air resistance, increasing the mass will increase the range of the cannonball because the object is heavier. Is it correct?)arrow_forwardCan you please explain a bit more of whats happening in step 2?arrow_forwardWhich one of the entries below describe Torricelli's experiment ?

- ONLY ANSWER 3 AND USE OTHER QUESTIONS FOR CONTEXT Suppose we have two sources of light, a deep red one with wavelength 700 nm, and a violet one with wavelength 400 nm. Both produce the same optical power, delivering 1 milliwatt (10−310−3 watts) of energy per second per square centimeter to a metal target with an area of 1cm2 located 1 meter from the sources. 1. Which color would deliver more photons each second? All the photoelectrons that are produced from the light are presumed to be collected by another electrode and we determine the current in amperes using a circuit and an "ammeter", that is, some device that can give a precise quantitative measure of the current. Such a device might use the magnetic field generated by the current, or the voltage produced when the current flows across a resistance. 2. If the work function of the surface is 2 eV, will we see a current with both colors, one color, or neither one? If so, how much (in amperes), or if not, explain. 3.
