A rubber ball is held 4.0 m above a concave spherical mirror with a radius of curvature of 1.5 m. At time equals zero, the ball

is dropped from rest and falls along the principal axis of the mirror. How much time elapses before the ball and its image are at the same location?

The time elapsed when the ball placed above the concave mirror and the image formed would be at the same location is 0.55 s.

<h3>Image distance</h3>

The position of the image formed is determined using the followimg mirror formula;

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}

where;

  • f is the focal length of the mirror
  • v is the image distance
  • u is the object distance

f = R/2

f = 1.5/2

f = 0.75 m

When the ball and its image is in the same position, u = v

The position of the ball is calculated as;

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{u} \\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{2}{u} \\\\u = 2f\\\\u = 2(0.75)\\\\u = 1.5 \ m

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time taken for the ball to travel the caluclated distance is determined as;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

1.5 = 0  + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1.5 = 4.9t²

t² = 1.5/4.9

t² = 0.306

t = 0.55 s

Thus, the time elapsed when the ball and its image are at the same location is 0.55 s.

Explain hydrogen bonding.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonding, interaction involving a hydrogen atom located between a pair of other atoms having a high affinity for electrons; such a bond is weaker than an ionic bond or covalent bond but stronger than van der Waals forces. Hydrogen bonds can exist between atoms in different molecules or in parts of the same molecule.

VashaNatasha [74]

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

In the Haber reaction, patented by German chemist Fritz Haber in 1908, dinitrogen gas combines with dihydrogen gas to produce gaseous ammonia. This reaction is now the first step taken to make most of the world's fertilizer. Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the Haber reaction finds that 348 liters per second of dinitrogen are consumed when the reaction is run at 205°C and 0.72 atm. Calculate the rate at which ammonia is being produced.

Answer:

The rate of production of ammonia is 217.08 grams per second.

Explanation:

N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3

Volume of dinitrogen used in a second = 348 L

Temperature of the gas = T = 205°C = 205+273 K = 478 K

Pressure of the gas = P = 0.72 atm

Moles of dinitrogen = n

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.72 atm\times 348 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 478 K}=6.385 mol

According to reaction, 1 mole of dinitriogen gives 2 mole of ammonia.Then 6.385 moles of dinitrogen will give:

\frac{2}{1}\times 6.385 mol=12.769 mol

Mass of 12.769 moles of ammonia;

12.769 mol 17 g/mol = 217.08 g

217.08 grams of ammonia is produced per second.So, the rate of production of ammonia is 217.08 grams per second.
