Problem 3: There are lots of examples of ideal gases in the universe, and they exist in many different conditions. In this problem we will examine what the temperature of these various phenomena are.
Part (a) Give an expression for the temperature of an ideal gas in terms of pressure P, particle density per unit volume ρ, and fundamental constants.
T = ______
Part (b) Near the surface of Venus, its atmosphere has a pressure fv= 91 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere, and a particle density of around ρv = 0.91 × 1027 m-3. What is the temperature of Venus' atmosphere (in C) near the surface?
Part (c) The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright stars in Orion's belt). It is a very complicated mess of gas, dust, young star systems, and brown dwarfs, but let's estimate its temperature if we assume it is a uniform ideal gas. Assume it is a sphere of radius r = 5.7 × 1015 m…
How many particles are present in a closed container if the energy it contains is 95859.14 J, and the diatomic oxygen gas is moving at a velocity of 67.56 m/s? Use only the whole number for the value of atomic mass unit. Express your answer in proper scientific notation.

Anyone who scuba dives is advised not to fly within the next 24 hrs. because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen to the bloodstream. Without allowing the nitrogen to come out of solution slowly, any sudden air-pressure reduction (such as during airplane ascent) can result in the nitrogen forming bubbles in the blood, creating the bends, which can be painful and even fatal. Military special operation forces are especially at risk. What is the change in pressure on such a special-op soldier who must scuba dive at a depth of 20 m in seawater one day and parachute at an altitude of 7.6 km the next day? Assume that the average air density within the altitude range is 0.87 kg/m^3.arrow_forward
