The physical property that large transport ships utilize to increase the buoyant force on them.
What is volume?
100
This is the SI unit for pressure.
What are kilopascals? (kPa)
100
Which state is the most compressible?
What is a gas?
100
Describe how the volume changes if a balloon is fully inflated and released up into the atmosphere.
It will expand and eventually burst.
100
What is the pressure of a balloon which was initially inflated to a volume of 24.0 Liters at sea level (101 kPa) after it has been released to hit a final atmospheric pressure of 40 kPa?
What is 60.6 Liters?
200
This is what the buoyant force on an object is equal to.
What is the weight of the water displaced?
200
What number do you have to multiply the mass of an object by to get the weight?
What is gravity (10 m/s^2)?
200
Which state(s) of matter fill the shape of their container?
What are gases and liquids?
200
Describe what will happen if a balloon is inflated and then pulled deep down into the ocean.
It will deflate.
200
What is the final temperature of a gas which was initially 300 K and 24.0 Liters if it is compressed to a new volume of 8.0 Liters?
What is 100 K?
300
How does adding mass to a fixed volume affect the density?
What is the density increases?
300
What is the only factor that affects the pressure experienced by an object in a fluid?
What is the depth of the fluid?
300
Which state of matter has the greatest energy?
What is a gas?
300
Describe how the boiling point of a liquid changes as elevation changes.
Boiling point increase as pressure increases.
300
A can of WD-40 is under 101 kPa of pressure at 300 K. What is the pressure in the can if the temperature is increased to 600 K?
What is 200 kPa?
400
If a buoyant force of 100 Newtons is acting on a 2,000 Newton ship, what is the weight of the water displaced by the ship?
What is 100 Newtons?
400
Explain the change in weight an object experiences as the density of the fluid changes.
As the density increases, the weightlessness of the object increases (the object feels lighter).
400
What variable is directly related to the energy of a gas, volume, pressure, temperature, or amount?
What is temperature?
400
What happens to the pressure of a rigid container as the amount of gas inside is increased?
What is the pressure increases.
400
The volume of a balloon is 24.0 Liters at 400 K and 160 kPa. What is the volume of the same balloon at STP?
STP = Standard Temperature and Pressure = 101 kPa and 273 K (0 C)
What is 26.0 Liters?
500
Describe the density of an object that suspends in a fluid.
What is equal to the density of the fluid?
500
Where is pressure the greatest: 30,000 feet above sea level, at sea level, or 30,000 feet below sea level?
What is 30,000 feet below sea level.
500
Give an example of a phase change in which matter becomes less ordered.
What is melting, boiling, or subliming.
500
What are the three variables that affect gas pressure?
What are temperature, volume, and amount.
500
Name the SI units for each of the following quantities: volume, pressure, amount, and temperature.
