Jessica took a mylar balloon outside on a very hot day. as she waited for the bus the balloon began to get bigger. what is the best explanation of this?
a) as the particles became warmer, they lost energy and moved more, resulting in less pressure on the balloon.
b) as the particles became warmer, they gained energy and moved more, resulting in less pressure on the balloon.
c) as the particles became warmer, they lost energy and moved more, resulting in more pressure on the balloon.
eliminate
d) as the particles became warmer, they gained energy and moved more, resulting in more pressure on the balloon.

Acylinder with a movable piston contains 11.7 moles of a monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 1.32×10^5 pa. the gas is initially at a temperature of 300 k. an electric heater adds 43200 j of energy into the gas while the piston moves in such a way that the pressure remains constant. cp=20.79 j k^−1 mol^−1 for a monatomic ideal gas, and that the number of gas molecules is equal to avogadro's number (6.022×10^23) times the number of moles of the gas. (a) what is the temperature of the gas after the energy is added? (b) what is the change in volume of the gas? (c) how much work is done by the gas during this process?

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?

Takumi works in his yard for 45 minutes each saturday. he works in the morning, and he wears sunscreen and a hat each time he works in the yard. what does takumi hope to reduce through his actions? the likelihood of stochastic effects, such as dna mutations the severity of stochastic effects, such as cancer the severity of non-stochastic effects, such as cancer the likelihood of non-stochastic effects, such as radiation sickness
