Explanation:

Light rays that pass close to the black hole get caught and cannot escape. so what ends up happening to the light is that it starts bending due to the strong gravitational force of the black hole.

It decomposes in a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 14 s–1. how long would it take for an initial concentration of 0

VikaD [51]

The rate constant of a reaction can be computed by the ratio of the changes in the concentration and time take taken for it to decompose. Thus, if the rate constant is given to be 14 M/s, we have

$rate = \frac{-(C_{new} - C_{old})}{t}$

where C are the concentration values and t is the time taken for it to decompose.

$14 = \frac{-(0.02 - 0.06)}{t}$
$t = 0.003 s$

Thus, it will take 0.003 s for it to decompose.
Answer: 0.003 s

The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion.

lesya [120]

Answer:

(a) m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b) K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the volume of the continent:

V = L*W*H

where,

V = Volume of Slab = ?

L = Length of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

W = Width of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

H = Height of Slab = 31 km = 3.1 x 10⁴ m

Therefore,

V = (4.45 x 10⁶ m)(4.45 x 10⁶ m)(3.1 x 10⁴ m)

V = 6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³

Now, we find the mass:

m = density*V

m = (2620 kg/m³)(6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³)

m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b)

The kinetic energy will be:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

v = speed = (1 cm/year)(0.01 m/1 cm)(1 year/365 days)(1 day/24 h)(1 h/3600 s)

v = 3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 x 10²¹ kg)(3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²

K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

(c)

For the same kinetic energy but mass = 77 kg:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

2.536 x 10¹¹ J = (1/2)(77 kg)v²

v = √(2)(2.536 x 10¹¹ J)

v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s

The rms (root-mean-square) speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule at 50∘C is 2000 m/s. Note that 1.0 mol of diatomic hydrogen at

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

A) d. (1/4)(2000m/s) = 500 m/s

B) c. 4000 J

C) f. None of the above (2149.24 m/s)

Explanation:

The translational kinetic energy of a gas molecule is given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 1^-23 J/K

T = Absolute Temperature

but,

K.E = (1/2) mv²

where,

v = root mean square velocity

m = mass of one mole of a gas

Comparing both equations:

(3/2)KT = (1/2) mv²

v = √(3KT)/m _____ eqn (1)

FOR HYDROGEN:

v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s _____ eqn (2)

FOR OXYGEN:

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(mass of oxygen)

Here,

mass of 1 mole of oxygen = 16 m

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(16 m)

velocity of oxygen = (1/4) √(3KT)/m

using eqn (2)

velocity of oxygen = (1/4)(2000 m/s) = 500 m/s

K.E = (3/2)KT

Since, the temperature is constant for both gases and K is also a constant. Therefore, the K.E of both the gases will remain same.

K.E of Oxygen = K.E of Hydrogen

K.E of Oxygen = 4000 J

using eqn (2)

At, T = 50°C = 323 k

v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s

m = 3(1.38^-23 J/k)(323 k)/(2000 m/s)²

m = 3.343 x 10^-27 kg

So, now for this value of m and T = 100°C = 373 k

v = √(3)(1.38^-23 J/k)(373 k)/(3.343 x 10^-27 kg)

v = 2149.24 m/s

A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 514 N. As the drawing sh

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

$T_R = 379 N$

Explanation:

As we know that mountain climber is at rest so net force on it must be zero

So we will have force balance in X direction

$T_L cos65 = T_R cos80$

$T_L = 0.41 T_R$

now we will have force balance in Y direction

$mg = T_L sin65 + T_Rsin80$

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985T_R$

Part a)

so from above equations we have

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985(\frac{T_L}{0.41})$

$514 = 3.3 T_L$

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

Now for tension in right string we will have

$T_R = \frac{T_L}{0.41}$

$T_R = 379 N$
