The mass percent composition of aluminum is 52.9% in aluminum oxide.

Mass of the aluminum = 3.53 g

Mass of the aluminum oxide = 6.67 g.

The mass percent of a substance is the mass of the substance divided by the mass of the compound into 100.

Aluminum reacts with oxygen to form aluminum oxide.

The overall balanced equation for the reaction is,

$Aluminum + Oxygen→Aluminum \: oxygen$

$4Al +3O _{2}→2Al _{2}O _{3}$

The mass percent composition of aluminum in the aluminum oxide is,

$Mass \: percent = \frac{ Mass \: of \: the \: substance}{ Mass \: of \: the \: compound} \times 100$

$Mass \: percent = \frac{Mass \: of \: the \: aluminum}{ Mass \: of \: the \: aluminum \: oxide } \times 100$

$Mass \: percent = \frac{3.53}{6.67 } \times 100$

= 52.9 %

Therefore, the mass percent composition of aluminum is 52.9% in aluminum oxide.

A pendulum consists of a 2.0 kg stone swinging on a4.0 m string of negligible mass. The stone has a speed of 8.0 m/swhen it pass

arlik [135]

Answer:

a) $v_{60^{o}} =4.98 m/s$

b) $\theta_{max}=79.34^{o}$

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by doing an energy analysis on the given situation. So the very first thing we can do in order to solve this is to draw a diagram of the situation. (see attached picture)

So, in an energy analysis, basically you will always have the same amount of energy in any position of the pendulum. (This is in ideal conditions) So in this case:

$K_{lowest}+U_{lowest}=K_{60^{o}}+U_{60^{0}}$

where K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

We know the potential energy at the lowest of its trajectory will be zero because it will have a relative height of zero. So the equation simplifies to:

$K_{lowest}=K_{60^{o}}+U_{60^{0}}$

So now, we can substitute the respective equations for kinetic and potential energy so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{lowest}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{60^{o}}^{2}+mgh_{60^{o}}$

we can divide both sides of the equation into the mass of the pendulum so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}v_{lowest}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}v_{60^{o}}^{2}+gh_{60^{o}}$

and we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to get:

$v_{lowest}^{2}=v_{60^{o}}^{2}+2gh_{60^{o}}$

so we can solve this for $v_{60^{o}}$ . So we get:

$v_{60^{o}}=\sqrt{v_{lowest}^{2}-2gh_{60^{0}}}$

so we just need to find the height of the stone when the pendulum is at a 60 degree angle from the vertical. We can do this with the cos function. First, we find the vertical distance from the axis of the pendulum to the height of the stone when the angle is 60°. We will call this distance y. So:

$cos \theta = \frac{y}{4m}$

so we solve for y to get:

$y = 4cos \theta$

so we substitute the angle to get:

y=4cos 60°

y=2 m

so now we can find the height of the stone when the angle is 60°

$h_{60^{o}}=4m-2m$

$h_{60^{o}}=2m$

So now we can substitute the data in the velocity equation we got before:

$v_{60^{o}}=\sqrt{v_{lowest}^{2}-2gh_{60^{0}}}$

$v_{60^{o}} = \sqrt{(8 m/s)^{2}-2(9.81 m/s^{2})(2m)}$

$v_{60^{o}}=4.98 m/s$

b) For part b, we can do an energy analysis again to figure out what the height of the stone is at its maximum height, so we get.

$K_{lowest}+U_{lowest}=K_{max}+U_{max}$

In this case, we know that $U_{lowest}$ will be zero and $K_{max}$ will be zero as well since at the maximum point, the velocity will be zero.

So this simplifies our equation.

$K_{lowest} =U_{max}$

And now we substitute for the respective kinetic energy and potential energy equations.

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{lowest}^{2}=mgh_{max}$

again, we can divide both sides of the equation into the mass, so we get:

$\frac{1}{2}v_{lowest}^{2}=gh_{max}$

and solve for the height:

$h_{max}=\frac{v_{lowest}^{2}}{2g}$

and substitute:

$h_{max}=\frac{(8m/s)^{2}}{2(9.81 m/s^{2})}$

to get:

$h_{max}=3.26m$

This way we can find the distance between the axis and the maximum height to determine the angle of the pendulum about the vertical.

y=4-3.26 = 0.74m

next, we can use the cos function to find the max angle with the vertical.

$cos \theta_{max}= \frac{0.74}{4}$

$\theta_{max}=cos^{-1}(\frac{0.74}{4})$

so we get:

$\theta_{max}=79.34^{o}$

A 500 N weight is hung at the middle of a rope attached to two buildings at the same level. If the breaks in the tension exceed

Lyrx [107]

Not sure what you mean by "breaks in the tension" but I suspect you mean the rope will come apart if the tension in the rope exceeds 1800 N.

In the free body diagram for the 500 N weight, we have a figure Y with the net force equations

• horizontal net force:

∑ F[hor] = T₁ cos(θ) - T₂ cos(θ) = 0

• vertical net force:

∑ F[ver] = T₁ sin(θ) + T₂ sin(θ) - 500 N = 0

From the first equation, it follows that T₁ = T₂, so I'll denote their magnitude by T alone. From the second equation, we have

2 T sin(θ) = 500 N

and if the maximum permissible tension is T = 1800 N, it follows that

sin(θ) = (500 N) / (3600 N) ⇒ θ = arcsin(5/36) ≈ 7.9°

is the smallest angle the rope can make with the horizontal.

Why isn’t our constitution ( and our country) in a constant state of adjustment and readjustment

madam [21]

The constitution and the country aren't in a constant state of adjustment and readjustment because it has strong and logical ideological bases that encompass most of society's issues over time.

The constitution was written on a democratic ideological basis inspired by the European Enlightenment revolution of thought. These principles have contributed to the construction of American social logic.

Therefore, the constitution and the country have not needed major readjustments or adjustments since their creation because the country has been built on solid and well-defined ideological bases that are projected into the future with a social logic.
