Chapter 13.2, Problem 1CC
An unknown amount of oxygen, kept in 8 piston-type cont8iner 8t a constant temperature was subjected to increasing pressure (P), in units of atmospheres, as the pressure (P) was increased, the resulting volume (V) was recorded in units of liters. We have found that a log-log plot aligns the data in a straight line. Using the figure, determine the mathematical equation for volume (V) m units of liters, and of a piston filled with an ideal gas subjected to increasing pressure (P) in units of atmospheres

The amount of time it takes for a pendulum to swing “to-and-fro” through one complete cycle is called the “period” and is calculated using the following equation:
where
T = period in seconds, I = mass moment of inertia, m = mass of pendulum in kilograms
g = gravitational acceleration, 9.8 m/s2, h = effective length of pendulum in meters
What is the appropriate unit for I if the preceding equation is to be homogeneous in units? Please show all of your work.

Question : A 550 kilogram mass initially at rest acted upon by a force of F(t) = 50et Newtons. What are the acceleration, speed, and displacement of the mass at t = 4 second ?
a =(50 e^t)/(550 ) [N/kg]
v = ∫_0^t▒(50 e^t )dt/(550 )= v_0 +(50 e^t-50)/550=((e^t- 1))/11
x = ∫_0^t▒(e^t- 1)dt/(11 )= x_0 +(e^t- t - 1)/(11 )
a(4s)=(50*54.6)/550= 4.96[m/s^2 ]
v(4s)=((e^4-1))/11= 4.87[m/s]
x(4s)=((e^4- 4 - 1))/11= 4.51 [m]
