The molecules of a gaseous form slow down, thus shrinking in volume.
As you know, molecules/atoms are in constant motion, and with temperature fluctuations, they either slow down, and compress, or they increase in speed and expand.
Ever notice that tires seem a bit flat in the winter?
Or bridges have little gaps to allow room to expand in summer months, as well as for when they "shrink" in cooler temperatures the overall structure is not corrupted.
What else can I help you with?
What would happen to the pressure if you cooled down the container?
The pressure inside the container would decrease.
What is an offshore breeze?
Wind is caused by differences in air pressure. An offshore breeze is the result of high pressure over land, and low pressure over the water. The high pressure air moves toward the lower pressure air. Or...if you just had this question on a test in the Ebus workbook, then the correct answer is B) Land mass has cooled down.
Why do tin cans get crushed if cooled after heated and closing is mouth?
Assuming the can can be sealed. When the can is heated the air inside it expands. If the can is then sealed and allowed to cool the air inside contracts which causes the pressure inside to drop. Because the outside air pressure is now greater it crushes the can.
If a tin is filled with hot water and sealed then covered with cold water What causes the tin to become dented?
The outside air pressure dents the tin. The water or air inside a sealed metal container will contract when cooled from the outside (by conduction through the can). When it was sealed, the pressure on the inside was the same as on the outside. But the contraction reduces the pressure on the inside, causing the external air pressure to squeeze the can, and possibly cave it in. This is widely demonstrated in another experiment using dry ice. A sealed gasoline can of about a gallon (4 liters) is placed on a dry-ice bed and cooled until the outside air pressure crushes the can.
What happen to air particles as they heat up and cool down?
Depends on the container of the "air particles" and what you mean by "what happens." If it is inside a container that can not expand, then the pressure increases. If it is inside a container that can expand (or is just atmospheric air) then the volume increases. (Pressure * Volume = n * R * change in temperature) On the atomic level, the atoms or molecules (depending on the gas) begin to move more quickly as their kinetic energy increases.
What happens when air pressure is cooled?
When air pressure is cooled, the air molecules move more slowly, causing them to come closer together. This increase in density leads to a decrease in air pressure. Additionally, cooling air can lead to the condensation of water vapor, which can lead to the formation of clouds and precipitation.
What would happen to the pressure if you cooled down the container?
The pressure inside the container would decrease.
What happens to air pressure when air is cooled?
When air is cooled, its molecules lose energy and move closer together, decreasing the air pressure. This is because the lower temperature reduces the average kinetic energy of the molecules, causing them to exert less force on the surrounding area, resulting in lower air pressure.
What might happen to a hot air balloon if the air inside is cooled down?
Only hot air rises, so if the hot air was cooled..... it would fall. Splat.
What happen air as it is cooled?
It loses moisture if cooled below its dew point. It becomes more dense, and that causes it to move toward areas where the air is less dense.
What is the cause a dirty air cooled condenser?
Excessive head pressure.
What will happen to the air particles in a sealed balloon if it is cooled?
Cooling the air inside a sealed balloon will cause the air particles to slow down and lose energy, resulting in a decrease in pressure. As a result, the balloon will shrink in size due to the decrease in pressure exerted by the air particles on the balloon walls.
What condensers have lower head pressure air cooled or water cooled?
Water-cooled condensers typically have lower head pressure compared to air-cooled condensers. Water-cooled systems are more efficient in transferring heat, resulting in lower operating pressures and temperatures. This can help in reducing energy consumption and improving overall system performance.
What will happen when nitrogen is cooled?
It will become liquid at approx 77 K at atmospheric pressure.
How can air pressure be utilized to crush a can?
Air pressure can be used to crush a can by creating a difference in pressure inside and outside the can. When the can is heated and then quickly cooled, the air inside the can condenses, creating a lower pressure. The higher pressure outside the can then crushes it.
What happen with the air in a soccer ball with a cooled and heated?
The air pressure goes down when cooled, goes up when heated. A soccer ball left outdoors in freezing weather does not have much bounce. Left outside on a hot day, has a lot of bounce.
When does air pressure happen?
by wind
