Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 7P
A large cylindrical tank contains 0.750 m3 of nitrogen gas at 27°C and 1.50 × 105 Pa (absolute pressure). The tank has a tight-fitting piston that allows the volume to be changed. What will be the pressure if the volume is decreased to 0.480 m2 and the temperature is increased to 157°C?

ON
You are told that the two points x = 0 and x = 0.0900 m are within one
wavelength of each other. If the wave is moving in the +x-direction, determine the
wavelength.
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate
units.

Part C
Find the height yi
from which the rock was launched.
Express your answer in meters to three significant figures.
Learning Goal:
To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems.
A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration.
PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems
MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model.
VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ.
SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g. Thus, the problem becomes one of…
