W = F D

W = ( F / A ) ( A D )

W = P ( AD )

W = P (V)

How it is possible to say that area under the curve on pv diagram gives magnitude of work done on a gas?

The following is just an informal discussion, to show why it is reasonable. Work = force x distance. Now, it requires a force to compress a gas. For simplicity, assume a piston of constant diameter. At higher pressures, the force required is greater. And a greater change in volume implies a larger distance.


What do you multiply in a venn diagram to find the GCF?

You multiply all the numbers in the center of the Venn Diagram. This gives you the highest possible number that goes into both numbers.


Is the apparent magnitude of a star the amount of light is actually gives off?

No. It's what we see. (The amount it actually gives off is called the absolute magnitude.)


What does the magnitude of the vector tell you about the value?

The magnitude of a vector represents its length or size. It gives information about the strength or intensity of the quantity being represented by the vector. The larger the magnitude, the greater the value of the vector.

How do you find magnitude in physics?

In physics, magnitude is the size or quantity of a physical property, such as force or velocity. To find the magnitude of a vector quantity, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which involves squaring the components of the vector, adding them together, and then taking the square root of the sum. This gives you the magnitude of the vector.
