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.

How are the 1st and 2nd Laws of Motion connected?

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Newton's First Law states that an object with no net force acting on it remains at rest or moves with constant velocity in a straight line. Newton's Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force on the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Pierce conducts an experiment in which waves collide in a way that the energy increases. What has occurred? refraction reflectio

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

constructive interference.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m.

In this scenario, an experiment is conducted by Pierce in which waves collide in a way that the energy increases. Thus, this is an example of constructive interference i.e constructive interference has occurred.

An interference occurs when two pair of waves such as sound and light waves pass through each other i.e crossing each other's path while traveling through the same medium or space.

A dolphin keeps up with a boat for a distance of 51 miles for 3 hours. What is the dolphin’s average speed?

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The dolphin's speed is 17 mi/h

Explanation:

Use the formula for average velocity: Distance/time

then the average speed of the dolphin is 51/3 mi/h = 17 mi/h

A 320-g ball and a 400-g ball are attached to the two ends of a string that goes over a pulley with a radius of 8.7 cm. Because

Gnom [1K]

To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to force described in Newton's second law, so that

F = ma

Where,

m = mass

a = Acceleration (Gravitational acceleration when there is action over the object of the earth)

Torque, as we know, is the force applied at a certain distance, that is,

$\tau = F*d$

Where

F= Force

d = Distance

Our values are given as,

$m_1 = 0.32Kg$

$m_2 = 0.4Kg$

$d = 8.7*10^{-2}m$

Since the system is in equilibrium the difference of the torques is the result of the total Torque applied, that is to say

$\tau = T_2-T_1$

$\tau = F_2*d-F_1*d$

$\tau = m_2g*d-m_1*g*d$

$\tau = (m_2-m_1)g*d$

$\tau = (0.4-0.32)(9.8)(8.7*10^{-2})$

$\tau = 0.068N\cdot m$

Therefore the magnitude of the frictional torque at the axle of the pulley if the system remains at rest when the balls are released is $\tau = 0.068N\cdot m$
