    Physics on Khan Academy: Physics is the study of the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. We'll start by looking at motion itself. Then, we'll learn about forces, momentum, energy, and other concepts in lots of different physical situations. To get the most out of physics, you'll need a solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry.
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    1) He is talking about an ideal gas in the absence of heat and work interactions, If you have heat or work PV is no longer a constant.
    (For example external work due to compression causes temperature rise)
    2) Real gases do in fact have a self-heating(or cooling)effect (called the Joule-Thomson effect) under compression due to friction, however this is usually ignored and is not predicted by Van der Waals' equation alone.

    Basically, the molecules are bouncing off the walls, and pushing on the walls as they bounce. For example, if a dodgeball bounces off you, it pushes you, right? That's why dodgeballs can make you fall over. So basically, the gas molecules are all bouncing off the sides like dodgeballs or bumper cars, and the bounces push on the sides. But when they bounce, they don't lose momentum, the momentum just changes to the opposite direction: the particle goes at the same speed in the other direction.

  • @RookieStudios
    @RookieStudios 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I havn't watched any other videos, nor do I have any education in physics. Would the presure decrease over time because of the energy (or momentum) of the gas-particles being converted into heat (or something?) on the sides of the container? (Given that the container is not in a vacum and is able to give off the heat it has gained from being bumped into). This might be a really silly question, but I really don't know and would love if someone could enlighten me :)

    • @ahmedosman2721
      @ahmedosman2721 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Might be a dumb question but if you were to squeeze a balloon on all its sides completely would it pop?

    • @MrGoatflakes
      @MrGoatflakes 8 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      No, a balloon pops because there is a pressure difference between the inside of the balloon and the outside, which stretches the rubber, to the point where it will tear.
      Now, if you press _equally_ on all sides of the balloon, say put it in a pressure chamber, what do you think will happen? There will be less pressure difference between then inside and the outside of the balloon and the balloon will deflate a little, making it _less_ likely to burst.
      You could keep going and going. And the balloon would get limper and limper and the rubber slacker and slacker, less strained and less likely to "pop", that is tear violently and let all the gas out in a rush.
      Until the air inside the balloon took up almost no volume whatsoever, and as long as you get rid of the heat generated by the compression, there is no force whatever that would tend to cause the balloon to fail. Quite to the contrary, you are actually relieving the forces that could cause the balloon to fail.

    • @brentrichards4160
      @brentrichards4160 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +RzVids I know that this was 4 months ago, but MrGoatflakes is correct. You can test this theory by swimming with a beach ball. Push a beach ball to the bottom of a pool. The pressure will push evenly on all sides, and it would appear that the beach ball is deflating.

    • @brentrichards4160

      ***** Since fluid doesn't have a definite shape, its pressure applies in all directions.

    • @guydude471
      @guydude471 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well ... If understand your question and I believe that the it can not be practically applied bur theoretically if you applied the same amount of pressure on all points of the sides of a balloon it will be under the act of equal forces and it won't pop since the air has now where to escape and not enough force to Pop it up

    @acquiesce022 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Actually you've made a valid point, but here's simpler explanation: liquids ARE in fact compressible! From my own experience with high pressure hydraulics for metal forming.
    Example: A metal press has the main hydraulic cylinder with an 18" bore has been pressurized to 3000 psi. With 0.75% compression per 1000psi.; compression = 2,250 psi; total. If F=P*A; we have 127,170lbs total force!!!
    Without the decomp valve, the hydraulic piping would burst!!
    The result is a whopping 5,250psi !!!!

    @michaelsmitten302 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    If the pressure in a gas is constant and in all directions, how come the molecules are described as going at different speeds - wouldn't they be uniform? Or are they accelerating after collisions? I personally believe that pressure in a gas is stored in the tension force between repulsive electrons. This means the particles could be stationary and the (if you like) elastic spring tension between forced together electrons provides a force in all directions which is effectively pressure at the container sides - the electrons attached to the atoms in the molecules, are resisting being contained.

You can easily fool yourself into thinking you know a subject just because you saw someone else do it.
