Based on the half-life of the reaction, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.

<h3>What is the half-life of a substance?</h3>

The half-life of a substance is the time taken for half the amount of atoms present in that substance to decay.

The half-life of the reaction is 200 seconds.

After, one half-life, pressure reduces to 0.0500 atm

After, two half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.0250 atm

After, three half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.01250 atm

After, four half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.00625 atm

Time taken = 4 * 200 = 800 seconds

Therefore, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.

Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) from behind while going 15 m/s Immediately after the collision, car B mov
Mamont248 [21]

Given :

Initial speed of car A is 15 m/s and initial speed of car B is zero.

Final speed of car A is zero and final speed of car B is 10 m/s.

To Find :

What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is lost in the collision.

Solution :

Initial kinetic energy is :

K.E_i = \dfrac{15^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_i = \dfrac{225 m}{2}

Final kinetic energy is :

K.E_f = \dfrac{10^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_f = \dfrac{100m}{2}

Now, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss is :

Loss = \dfrac{\dfrac{225m}{2}-\dfrac{100m}{2}}{\dfrac{100m}{2}}\\\\Loss = \dfrac{125}{100}\\\\Loss = 1.25

Therefore, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss in the collision is 1.25 .

What is true of the moon's orbital and rotational periods?
Eddi Din [679]
The moon's orbital and rotational periods are identical or the same, I<span>ts rate of spin is done in unison with its rate of revolution (the time that is needed to complete one orbit). Thus, the moon rotates exactly once every time it circles the Earth.</span>

A 30-mm-diameter copper rod is 1 m long with a yield strength of 70 MPa. Determine the axial force necessary to cause the diamet
ivolga24 [154]

Explanation:

Given data:

d = 30 mm = 0.03 m

L = 1m

S_{y} = 70 Mpa

Δd = -0.0001d

Axial force = ?

validity of elastic deformation assumption.

Solution:

O'₂ = Δd/d = (-0.0001d)/d = -0.0001

For copper,

v = 0.326      E = 119×10³ Mpa

O'₁ = O'₂/v = (-0.0001)/0.326 = 306×10⁶

∵δ = F.L/E.A    and σ = F/A so,

σ = δ.E/L = O'₁ .E = (306×10⁻⁶).(119×10³) = 36.5 MPa

F = σ . A = (36.5 × 10⁻⁶) . (π/4 × (0.03)²) = 25800 KN

S_{y} = 70 MPa > σ = 36.5 MPa

∵ elastic deformation assumption is valid.

so the answer is

F = 25800 K N            and     S_{y} > σ
