How many significant figures from 0,020170 kg ? a. 3 b. 4 c. 5 d. 6 e. 7

1 answer:

4 0

> Non-zero numbers (like 1,2,3,4...) are always significant
> A zero sandwiched between two non-zero numbers is always significant
> Trailing zeros in a decimal (not whole number like million) are always significant.

Is it possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas? Explain

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas.A process in which temperature of the gas remains constant is called Isothermal Process.For an ideal internal energy is a function of temperature therefore internal energy remains constant while all the heat added is converted to do the work done by the system.

A 1.50 cm high diamond ring is placed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror with radius of curvature 30.00 cm. The magnification is ____

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Magnification, m = -0.42

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of diamond ring, h = 1.5 cm

Object distance, u = -20 cm

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 30 cm

Focal length of mirror, f = R/2 = -15 cm (focal length is negative for concave mirror)

Using mirror's formula :

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}$ , f = focal length of the mirror

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-15}+\dfrac{1}{-20}$

v = -8.57 cm

The magnification of a mirror is given by,

$m=\dfrac{-v}{u}$

$m=\dfrac{-(-8.57)}{-20}$

m = -0.42

So, the magnification of the concave mirror is 0.42. Thew negative sign shows that the image is inverted.

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles

Explanation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

$\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.
