Temperature & pressure relationship in gas

Directly related

Energy transfer when gas temp increases

Heat to kinetic energy

Kinetic energy equation

K=12mv2K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Effect of increased kinetic energy on speed

Speed increases

Effect of increased speed on collisions

More frequent collisions

Temp increase effect on pressure (constant vol)

Pressure increases

Pressure-volume relationship (constant temp)

Inversely proportional

Why pressure decreases when volume increases

Particles spread out, fewer collisions

Pressure-volume equation (constant temp)

pV=constantpV = constant

Pressure unit in pV=constantpV = constant

Pascals (Pa)

Volume unit in pV=constantpV = constant

Cubic metres (m3m^3)

If volume doubles (constant temp), pressure...

Halves

Definition of work

Energy transferred by a force

Effect of doing work on a gas

Increases internal energy & temperature

Bike pump: why temp rises when pumping

Work done increases internal energy
