Caused by collisions with container walls?
gas pressure
What caused by collisions with container walls?
gas pressure
Why do gases exert a pressure on the inside of their container?
A gas consists of particles, which are either atoms or molecules, which all move randomly, and independently of each other. Every time a particle bounces off the wall of a container, it exerts some degree of pressure. The total of all the particles bouncing off the walls creates the pressure that we observe.
How does kinetic theory explain the compressibility of gas?
When gas molecules collide with the walls of the container, the collision is elastic. ie. Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision. Hence, the gas molecule imparts a certain momentum to the wall. As there are a large no of gas molecules, a large no of molecules collide with the wall every second. Change in momentum per unit time (per second) is force. Force per unit area is pressure. This is the pressure exerted by gas molecules.yes.. when applied with Boyle's law and Charles law and Gay Lussac's law, It can explain the pressure exerted by the gases
How do the particles inside a car tire cause pressure on the tire?
Tyre pressure is caused by the air particles inside the tyre
Caused by collisions with container walls?
gas pressure
What caused by collisions with container walls?
gas pressure
Gas pressure is caused by collisions between?
particles. are you dumb?
What causes pressure?
The weight of the air The distance between particles of a gas determines the pressure. The distance can be decreased and the pressure therefore increased by either increasing the amount of particles of gas in the container, or by reducing the size of the container.
What is gas pressure in a closed system is caused by?
Resultant force of all combined collisions with the walls of the container.
Is low pressure or high pressure stronger?
High pressure is stronger. Pressure is caused by the gas particles in a container hitting the sides of said container. At high pressure, the particles hit the sides of the container much more and therefore are pushing harder on the sides.
Why do gases exert a pressure on the inside of their container?
A gas consists of particles, which are either atoms or molecules, which all move randomly, and independently of each other. Every time a particle bounces off the wall of a container, it exerts some degree of pressure. The total of all the particles bouncing off the walls creates the pressure that we observe.
What is force caused by collisions of particles?
3-dimensional pattern
What is the force caused by collisions of particles?
Gravity is the force caused by the collision of particles.
Does the constant motion of the particles in a liquid cause the liquid to take the shape of its container?
Yes, pressure in the liquid caused by its molecules constantly being in motion force it to take on the shape of its container (within limits).
What is caused by the collisions of air molecules around you that produces the force of an area?
atmospheric pressure
What causes gas to have pressure?
The number and vibration of the molecules that make up the gas cause the pressure.
