Hello all! I posted a question on TSR but am not getting a reply. :p
So help me out there, it's all solved. I just need to figure out one little thing. Here's the link:

well u can do that but you got to know the force that is acted on A so we have to take the moment about A so that we could safely work out things. if u take moments about C find the force at A. ty

Can anyone please help me with Question 2 b (ii) and Question 1c . Please explain the reasoning behind your steps also. Thanks in advance.

use pV=nRT.
Pressure is given , the volume given must be converted to dm^3 , ie multiply with 10^-6 , use the value of R ie 8.31 and the temp in kelvin is already given ...put the values in the equations and calculate n ( the number of moles) .

Yes, I got the answer for the first part. But how to find the number of balloons that can be filled?

using the same formula first calculate the number of moles of gas filled in each balloon ...ryt ...
then ____ moles of gas : 1 ballons (number of balloons)
_______moles calculated in part b(1):x and by this calculate the total number of balloons.

calculate like this and see if the ans is ryt or not.

the ans in ms is round off to 3sf...so ur ans much be less then 745 then when it will be roundoff to 3sf it will get to 740. You must have made some mistake in a calculation ....try to use the accurate values and then find the final ans ...see if it gets to 740 or not .

Unfortunately I am still not getting the answer. Have you tried to solve it yourself? Please try and see.
