Question

A good year blimp (a huge airship) is filled to a

volume of 1,800L at a temperature of 35°C. As
the weather changed the blimp is then cooled
at constant pressure to a temperature of -46°C.
What is the final volume of the blimp?

Answer 1

V₂ = 1326.62 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume, V₁ = 1800 L

Initial temperature, T₁ = 35°C = 308 K

Final temperature, T₂ = -46°C = 227 K

We need to find the final volume of the blimp. The relation between volume and temperature is given by :

`(V_1)/(V_2)=(T_1)/(T_2)\\\\V_2=(V_1T_2)/(T_1)\\\\V_2=(1800* 227)/(308)\\\\V_2=1326.62\ L`

So, the final volume of the blimp is 1326.62 L.
