    For the diver question have I missed something or shouldn't it increase to 4 atmospheres because for every 10m it increases by 1atm and the question states this is at 30m below sea level, you did it for 10m?? Thanks though your videos are really helpful

      Thank you Matthew, right you are. Too many 30's and 10's in the problem. I've added an annotation. It should have been 10 below the surface not 30 m.

    for the diver question, I did it in a different way. It says it increases 1atm every 10m but we do not know where it started so we start at p and then 30 meters below where it has increased by 3, 3P, which in the calculations cancel each other. I found out it does not matter the initial pressure but the proportionality of both. Thank you

      just found out I am wrong, If I do 1atm as the initial pressure, the final should be 4atm as matthew said

    at 15:00, in IB exams would I need to memorise the mass number of all the elements?! or will it be given to me? same goes to molar mass

    hello! I wanted to ask why is the pressure 1 atm when for the first scenario the balloon is AT the surface not below?

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  6 лет назад +2

      Air pressure is 1 atmosphere.

    • @aqmalfiqri2098

      @@donerphysics For the second scenario, wouldn't pressure be 3 atm since it is 30m below the surface?

      @michaelfeng1716 4 года назад +2

      Aqmal Fiqri I’m quite sure he made a mistake, check his reply to Matthew Clisby. But it should not be 3 atm but rather 4 atm since the pressure increases by 1atm every 10 metres, and the pressure is 1atm before it goes below water. Therefore 1 + 3 x 1 = 4atm

    Hi chris, are u sure the answer of question 2 isn't A? ratio of 1/(3/2) = 2/3 could u explain please

    • @donerphysics

      X has 3X the temperature but half the number of moles, so its pressure is higher by a factor of 1.5

    How to find pressure if name of gas, mean square speed and density are given?

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  4 года назад

      Name of gas gives grams per mole and grams per particle. Speed and mass give KE per particle which will give T. Density will give volume and moles.

  • @matheusdutra208
    @matheusdutra208 6 лет назад +1

    Why does low density correspond to low pressure and high volume?

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  6 лет назад +3

      If take N molecules of gas, and increase the volume in which they can travel, there will be fewer molecules, (less mass) per unit volume, and mass per unit volume is density. If we add molecules in a fixed volume, pressure increases since pressure is created by the molecules hitting the container walls, but so does density since here is more mass per unit volume.

    Hello sir,
    I'm just wondering what the difference is between (3/2)(R)(T) and (3/2)(K)(T) where R is the gas constant and K is the Boltzmann constant?
    when would (3/2)(R)(T) ever be applied?

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  8 лет назад +1

      +Muhammad H
      Basically if you are working with moles use KEave=3/2RT /Na, and if you are working with number of particles use KE=3/2kT. The internal energy of an ideal gas is the sum over all molecules of the the average KE, so U=N3/2kT or U=n 3/2RT.

    That symbol is "congruent to," not "approximately equal to."

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  7 лет назад +4

      In mathematics, the symbols are more precisely defined than in the sciences and engineering. It is very common to use a straight and one or two wavy lines together to mean "approximately equal to".
      See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_symbols
      I am not saying its right to do this, but I'm not offended by it either.

      I was referring to the ~ + = symbol, but it makes sense now, thanks.

    Is n always constant in PV=nRT?

    • @donerphysics
      @donerphysics  3 года назад +1

      It is really just the amount of gas. So it is constant unless there is gas going in or out of the system. This is usually the case.
