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.

What is the Force in Newtons exerted by cart with a mass of 0.75 kg and an Acceleration of 6m/s2?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.5 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.75 × 6 = 4.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.5 N</h3>

Unpolarized light with an intensity of 655 W / m2 is incident on a polarizer with an unknown axis. The light then passes through
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1.\theta=29.84^{0}

2.\theta=60.15^{0}

Explanation:

Polarizes axis can create two possible angles with the vertical.

first we have to find the intensity of  first polarizer

which is given as

I=\frac{I_{0} }{2}

I= \frac{655\frac{W}{M^{2} } }{2}

I=327.5\frac{W}{m^{2} }

For a smaller angle for the first polarizer:

According to Malus Law

I_{2} =I_{1} Cos^{2}(90^{0} - \theta)

I_{2} =I_{1} sin^{2}\theta

\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} }=Sin^{2}\theta

taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{\frac{163}{327.5} } = sin\theta

\theta=Sin^{-1}(0.4977)

\theta=29.84^{0}

For a larger angle for the first polarizer:

According to Malus Law

I_{2} =I_{1} cos^{2}\theta

\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} }=Cos^{2}\theta

taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{\frac{163}{327.5} } = cos\theta

\theta=Cos^{-1}(0.4977)

\theta=60.15^{0}

Melissa's favorite exercise equipment at the gym consists of various springs. in one exercise, she pulls a handle grip attached
konstantin123 [22]

The formula for force exerted on/by a spring is 

F = k*e where k is the spring constant and x is the distance stretched from unstrained position. This should allow you to find what you need.

 

Using F = k x e, 


where k is the spring constant, 


and e is the extension, 


The F is her weight = 45 X 0.80 


= 36 N
