Question: (II)If the pressure in a gas is tripled while its volume is held constant, by what factor does\({v_{{\rm{rms}}}}\)change?
Short Answer
The rms speed changes by a factor of \(\sqrt 3 \).

Question:(II) A certain car has 14.0 L of liquid coolant circulating at a temperature of 93°C through the engine’s cooling system. Assume that, in this normal condition, the coolant completely fills the 3.5-L volume of the aluminum radiator and the 10.5-L internal cavities within the aluminum engine. When a car overheats, the radiator, engine, and coolant expand and a small reservoir connected to the radiator catches any resultant coolant overflow. Estimate how much coolant overflows to the reservoir if the system goes from 93°C to 105°C. Model the radiator and engine as hollow shells of aluminum. The coefficient of volume expansion for coolant is\({\bf{410}} \times {\bf{1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 6}}}}\;{\bf{/^\circ C}}\).
