Description : Do gases with high molar masses travel through small openings faster than gases with low molar masses?

Last Answer : answer:I wouldn’t think so, unless you include a propellant. Sorta like with the aerosol can. I don’t expect mass to matter much unless you’re driving the gas gravitically. All things being equal, I’d guess that you’re looking at the same rate of flow in both cases. But then, I’m no physicist.

Description : Can wind travel faster than the speed of sound? -Geography

Description : A bus can travel 25% faster than a van. Both start from a certain shop at the same time and reach poin P, 37.5 kms away from the shop at the same time time. On the way, however, the bus lost about 6.25 mins while shopping at the some such places. The speed of the van is. a) 72 b) 73 c) 74 d) 75 

Last Answer : A Let speed of the car be x kmph The speed of the train = 125x/100 =5x/4 km/hr Therefore 37.5 / x – 37.5 /(5x/4) = 6.25 /60 37.5 / x – (37.5*4)/5x = 6.25 / 60 37.5 / x – 150 / 5x = 6.25 / 60 37.5 / x – 30/x = 6.25 / 60 7.5 / x = 6.25 / 60 6.25x = 7.5*60 X=72 km/hr
