PV = NkT

P: pressure

V: volume

N: number of particles in gas

k: Boltzmann's constant

T: absolute temperature

More particles in a constant volume, constant temperature space means more pressure.

How the motions of gas particles are related to the pressure by the gas?

The motion of gas particles is related to pressure by the frequency and force of their collisions with the walls of the container. When gas particles move faster and collide more frequently, they exert a higher pressure on the container walls. On the other hand, slower particle motion results in lower pressure.


How does particle speed relate to the distance between particles?

Particle speed is not directly related to the distance between particles. The speed of individual particles in a substance is determined by factors like temperature and pressure. However, the average speed of particles in a substance can affect the distance between particles indirectly by influencing the pressure exerted by the substance.


Is pressure directly proportional to kinetic energy of a particle?

Pressure is related to the kinetic energy of the particles in a gas, but it is not directly proportional. Pressure is actually proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles, as described by the ideal gas law equation PV = nRT. So, an increase in the kinetic energy of the gas particles will lead to an increase in pressure.


How does understand particle motion help you understand fluid pressure?

Understanding particle motion helps in understanding fluid pressure because pressure in a fluid is determined by the motion and collisions of its particles. When particles move faster or collide more frequently, the pressure of the fluid increases. This relationship is described by Bernoulli's principle, which relates the speed of fluid flow to its pressure.


Describe what happens to the proton number and the mass number when an alpha particle is emitted by a nucleus?

When an alpha particle (helium nucleus) is emitted by a nucleus, the proton number decreases by 2 and the mass number decreases by 4. This is because the alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons.

How are the amplitudes of sound waves?

There is not only "one" amplitude. There is an amplitude of particle displacement ξ, or displacement amplitude, an amplitude of sound pressure p or pressure amplitude, an amplitude of sound particle velocity v, or particle velocity amplitude, an amplitude of pressure gradient Δ p, or pressure gradient amplitude. If the "sound" inceases, the "amplitude" also increases.


What particle consists of two protons and two neutrons it is the same as a helium nucleus release of a what particle by an atom decreases the atomic number by 2 and the mass number by 4?

The particle that consists of two protons and two neutrons, equivalent to a helium nucleus, is an alpha particle. When an atom releases an alpha particle, its atomic number decreases by 2 and its mass number decreases by 4.
