A plot of P versus gives a straight line at constant temperature. This shows that p is directly proportional to . This straight line will meet at the origin where both P and are zero. The P goes down as the gas expands, falling away to zero as the volume approaches infinity (= =0) This straight line changes its position because both pressure and volume varies on varying the temperature. When temperature is increased both pressure and volume will increase. Keeping T constant and plotting P versus another straight line is obtained. This straight line goes away from x-axis. However , when temperature is decreased both the values of P and V will decrease. Again a straight line is obtained. This straight line will be closer to the x-axis

What is the difference between air pressure and temperature?

Temperature is the average amount of energy that a (air) particle has. Pressure is the force that the moving particle exerts as it bumps into or pushes against a surface. The higher the temperature, the faster the particles will be moving and the more force they will exert when they bump into a surface. So as temperature goes up, so does pressure.


How do you realign door mirror on Honda CR-V?

It is unclear what the question is referring to. The outer plastic shell is moveable so that it will fold in if it hits an obstruction. To re-position it to the normal position just push against it and it will lock back into position. The mirror contained within the housing is moveable and if it gets forced out of position, you can move it back into position by CAREFUULLY applying pressure against the edge of the mirror you wish to re-position (either inward or outward pressure) and it should ratchet against the interior adjusting wheel and can be returned to a mid-position.


What would happen to the pressure if the volume were reduced to 0.5 and the temperature increased to 260?

Reducing the volume that a gas occupies will increase the pressure because it reduces the surface area that the gas has to impact against. Likewise increasing the temperature will increase pressure by increasing the kinetic energy of the gas molecules.


What does the constant collision of gas molecules against the inside walls of a container produce A Temperature Bdensity C Pressure Ddiffusion?

The constant collision of gas molecules against the inside walls of a container produces pressure which is directly proportional to the number of collisions.


How capillary thermostat works?

The capillary thermostat has a capillary tube which is usually filled with a refrigerant which usually contracts or expands due to temperature. As the temperature expands this liquid and in turn this pressure presses against a bellows that pushes against a switch , the switch closes and the refrigerator runs until the capillary cools enough to decrease the pressure and the opposite happens.


What is the lowest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels?

No, systolic pressure is the highest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels.
