Dear Year 8
I was so very impressed with your efforts on Thursday afternoon. Everyone of you managed to apply the ideal gas law to the three scenarios we looked at and that’s easily some GCSE work right there! Look what we can do!
Below I’ve given you a Level 7 Year 9 question and I’ll think you’ll have no trouble with it. Please complete it in your exercise book, in the comments or in your student journal and then answer this questions using internet research. Use your own words!
How do the pistons on steam trains make the wheels turn?
Pressure Homework Question Y 8
Good Luck and see you on Tuesday with Ms Warsame!

The reason is because the gas particles is spread and they are not close to together and the black dot And the white dot isn’t close together. The reason is because the piston has got smaller so the gas particle is closer together. The reason is because are stuck together and there is more nitrogen so the gas will compress. The reason is because their is less nitrogen so the gas will not change when it’s compress.
The steam pushes on the engine parts to make them move. Steam engines can power many kinds of machines including vehicles and electric generators.
in a gas the particles are all separate and are not touching each other.they might bump into each other but mostly are separate. so that means that the partials are gas. and there is a bit of nitrogen so this means the gas will go together.
