Lake point tower in chicago is the tallest apartment building in the united states. suppose you take the elevator from street le

vel to the roof of the building. the elevator moves almost the entire distance at constant speed, so that it does 1.15x10^5j of work on you as it lifts the entire distance. if your mass is 60.0 kg how tall is the building.

Using the idea of work done under gravity, the height of the building is 187 m.

<h3>Work done in a gravitational field</h3>

We must recall that the work done in a gravitational field is given by; mgh

m= mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

mass = 60.0 kg

Workdone = 1.15x10^5 J

W = mgh

h = W/mg

h =  1.15x10^5 J/60.0 kg * 9.8 ms-2

h = 187 m

Balance the following chemical equation:<br> CO2 + VH20 - CH1206+ voz<br> [<br> ~<br> CO₂+
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Start with Carbon and assume we only get 1 sugar molecule from the process.

you have 6 carbons in the sugar on the right, so you need 6 carbons on the left which only come from CO₂

6 CO₂

you have 12 hydrogen atoms in the sugar on the right, so you need 12 hydrogen atoms on the left which only come from H₂O. At 2 hydrogen atoms per water molecule means you need 6 waters.

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆

you are supplied with 12 oxygen from the CO₂ and 6 oxygen from the H₂O, but you only need 6 oxygen for the sugar. That means there are 12 oxygen remaining which will become 6 O₂ molecules

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction where carbon dioxide and water react to form glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas. Which repre
AnnyKZ [126]
<span>Correct Answer: D) 6CO2 + 6H20 → C6H12O6 + 6O2</span>

The reactants are Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O) and the products are Glucose (C6H12O6) and Oxygen gas (O2).

In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms of each element are same on both left and right hand side of the equation. 

In the given options, option D gives the balanced chemical equation and mentions the reactants and products on correct sides of the equation. So the correct answer is Option D

when using parallax distance is calculated from the sun and not earth do you think this matters? explain your answer.
Elden [556K]

When using parallax, astronomers calculate distance from the sun and not earth to improve on the accuracy of their measurement, since parallax angle decreases as star distance increases.

<h3>What is parallax distance?</h3>

Parallax enables astronomers to measure the distances of far away stars by using trigonometry.

<h3>Why does astronomers measure parallax distance from sun?</h3>

As the distance of star increases, the parallax angle decreases, and great degree of accuracy is required for its measurement.

So taking a refence from the earth instead of the sun will impact the accuracy of their measurement.

Thus, when using parallax, astronomers calculate distance from the sun and not earth to improve on the accuracy of their measurement, since parallax angle decreases as star distance increases.
