Question Number 29490 by Victor31926 last updated on 09/Feb/18
A gas expands according to the law PV=K (constant). Initialy, v=1000cubic metres and p=40N/m^2 . If the pressure is decreased at the rate of 5N/m^2 /min. find the rate at which the gas is expanding when its volume is 2000cubic metres.

PV=K When V=1000 m^3 and P=40N/m^2 K=40 N/m^2 ×1000 m^3 =40000 Nm When V=2000 m^3 P=(K/V)=((40000Nm)/(2000m^3 ))=20N/m^2 Per minute change in P,when V=2000m^3 P changes from 20N/m^2 to 15N/m^2 Changed volume=(K/(Changed pressure)) =((40000Nm)/(15N/m^2 )) =2666(2/3)m^3 Change in volume (in one minute) =2666(2/3)m^3 −2000m^3 =666(2/3)m^3 /min (expanding) Please confirm the answer.
