The pressure P (in kilopascals), volume V (in liters), and temperature T (in kelvins) of a mole of an
ideal gas are related by the equation PV = 8.31T. Find the rate at which the volume is changing
when the temperature is 330 K and increasing at a rate of 0.15 K/s and the pressure is 26 and
increasing at a rate of 0.03 kPa/s.

- You are working as a research assistant for a professor whose research area is thermodynamics. He points out to you that Daniel Fahrenheit used the best estimate of normal human body temperature as one of the points indefining the original Fahrenheit temperature scale. On the revised scale we now use, normal human body temperature is 98.6°F. Your professor proposes a new scale on which normal human body temperature would be exactly 100°N, where the unit °N is a degree on the New scale. The temperature of freezing water would be 0°N, as on the Celsius scale. Your professor asks you to determine the following temperatures on his new scale: (a) absolute zero, (b) the melting point of mercury (-37.9°F), (c) the boiling point of water, and, for publicity at his expected future press conference, (d) the highest recorded air temperature on the Earth’s surface, 134.1°F on July 10, 1913, in Death Valley, California.arrow_forwardThe first real length standard, adopted more than 200 years ago, was a platinum bar with two very fine marks separated by what was defined to be exactly one meter.

Assume that the Z scale is linear, that is, the size of a Z degree is the same everywhere on the Z scale.arrow_forward
