Question
How can we reduce global warming?

Answer

Ways of reducing global warming:
  • Minimize the use of automobiles: Depending on the situation, one can use a bicycle, the public transport system, and carpools.
  • Plant more trees to increase green cover.
  • Avoid burning of dry leaves and wood.
  • Avoid smoking. It is illegal to smoke in public places and workplaces because smoke is harmful not only for the one who is smoking but also for others sitting nearby.
  • Help people in understanding global warming; most people are unaware of it.

  1. $P$ vs $V$
  2. $P$ vs $1/V$
  3. $PV$ vs $P$
Interpret each graph in terms of the law.
(b) Assuming that the pressure values given above are correct, find the correct measurement of the volume.
It is found that on heating a gas its volume increases by 50% and its pressure decreases to 60% of its original value. If the original temperature was-15°C, find the temperature to which it was heated.
