What is larger a Atom or a Molecule?

2 answers:

3 0

I believe an Atom is a very powerful source, the basic unit of a chemical element. An atom is a source of nuclear energy.

But a molecule on the other hand isn't so different.
a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
I hope that helps, have a fantastic day!

How to find resultant force?

lys-0071 [83]

Assuming you're working in a 3D cartesian coordinate system, i.e. each point in space has an x, y, and z coordinate, you add up the forces' x/y/z components to find the resultant force.

A high-jumper, having just cleared the bar, lands on an air mattress and comes to rest. Had she landed directly on the hard grou

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

e. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a smaller net avg force, on the high-jumper than hard-ground.

Explanation:

This is according to the Newton's second law and energy conservation that the force exerted by the hard-ground is more than the force exerted by the mattress.

The hard ground stops the moving mass by its sudden reaction in the opposite direction of impact force whereas the mattress takes a longer time to stop the motion of same mass in a longer time leading to lesser average reaction force.

Mathematical expression for the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

$F=\frac{dp}{dt}$ ............................................(1)

where:

dp = change in momentum

dt = time taken to change the momentum

We know, momentum:

$p=m.v$

Now, equation (1) becomes:

$F=\frac{d(m.v)}{dt}$

∵mass is constant at speeds v << c (speed of light)

$\therefore F=m.\frac{dv}{dt}$

and, $\frac{dv}{dt} =a$

where: a = acceleration

$\Rightarrow F=m.a$

also

$F\propto \frac{1}{dt}$

so, more the time, lesser the force.

& Impulse:

$I=F.dt$

$I=m.a.dt$

$I=m.\frac{dv}{dt}.dt$

$I=m.dv=dp$

∵Initial velocity and final velocity(=0), of a certain mass is same irrespective of the stopping method.

So, the impulse in both the cases will be same.

The blades of a fan running at low speed turn at 250 rpm. When the fan is switched to high speed, the rotation rate increases un

fgiga [73]

Answer:

1.82 rad/s².

Explanation:

Applying,

α = (ω₂-ω₁)/t..................... Equation 1

Where α = angular acceleration of the fan blades, ω₂ = final angular velocity of the fan blades, ω₁ = initial angular velocity of the fan blades, t = time.

Given: ω₂ = 350 rpm = (350×0.1047) rad/s = 36.645 rad/s. ω₁ = 250 rpm = (250×0.1047) rad/s = 26.175 rad/s, t = 5.75 s.

Substitute into equation 1

α = (36.645-26.175)/5.75

α = 10.47/5.75

α = 1.82 rad/s².

Hence the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the fan blades = 1.82 rad/s²
