Boyle’s law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure p of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume v of the gas. (a) suppose that the pressure of a sample of air that occupies 0.106 m3 at 25°c is 50 kpa. write v as a function of p. (b) calculate dvydp when p − 50 kpa. what is the meaning of the derivative? what are its units?

During the apollo moon missions, astronauts were concerned about the effects of newton's third law of motion when: o a. they ejected waste water, because they were concerned that it would push them off course. o b. they reentered earth's atmosphere, because they were carrying heavy moon rocks. o c. they took off from earth, because a large force was required to generate large acceleration. o d. they detected incoming space debris, because the inertia of the debris could damage their ship.
