Why does increasing the temperature of a gas increase the pressure (when the volume is fixed)?

We can understand this using an idea called the Kinetic Model of Gases . Basically, let's assume that every molecule in the gas is a tiny, tiny snooker ball whizzing around the container. These 'snooker ball...

Find the equation of the tangent to the curve y = 2 ln(2e - x) at the point on the curve where x = e.

The first step is to find the y coordinate at the point on the curve where x = e. To do this we subsitute x = e into the equation of the curve, so y = 2ln(2e - x) becomes y = 2ln(2e - e). Simplifying this, w...

Solve x^2 - 6x - 2=0 giving your answer in simplified surd form.

SInce the question requires simplified surd form, it makes sense to use the quadratic formula immediately for this question. This would give us x = 6 [+-] squareroot(36-(4x1x-2)) / 2 which simplifies to x= 6...
