Heating gases

?
What does perpendicular mean?
Meets at 90 degrees
1 of 6
What is the equation for pressure?
Pressure = perpendicular force/area
2 of 6
Why do hotter gas particles have longer arrows?
They have more kinetic energy and therefore greater force
3 of 6
What effect does temperature have on kinetic energy?
The higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles have. This means they move at a higher speed
4 of 6
What effect does speed have on force?
At a higher speed, the particles colide wityh the sides of the container more frequently and with more force
5 of 6
What effect does force have on pressure?
More force means a higher pressure
