Imagine that you fill a balloon at sea level (1.0 atm) with 18 L of air. You are taking the balloon to Denver, Colorado, for a birthday party. Colorado is the “Mile High State,” and Denver has an air pressure of 0.85 atm. When you get to the party, what will the volume of the balloon be?

What tightening torque should be used for a hexagonal head screw (not split-bolt) on a 250 kcmil conductor?

High schoolphysics 5+3 pts a neon light consists of a glass tube with metal wires at each end. when connected to a high-voltage source, the gas glows. if a fly lands on the glass tube, what will most likely happen? a) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass conducts any free electrons back into the gas. b) electrons will flow directly from the metal wires along the glass and shock the fly. c) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass insulates it from the electrons in the gas and the metal. d) electrons that are moving through the gas will be conducted through the glass and shock the fly.

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. the concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30 kg c/m^3 fe, which are maintained constant. if the preexponential and activation energy are 6.2 x 10-7 m2 /s and 80,000 j/mol, respectively, compute the temperature at which the diffusion flux is 1.43 x 10^-9 kg/m^2 -s.
