The gravitational constant was experimentally measured by W Cavendish using the attraction between big and small lead balls. is true

The correct answer is true

<h3>How do you define gravitational constant?</h3>

the strength of gravity. a factor in use in Newton's gravity law to relate the strength of the gravitational pull between two bodies with their masses and distance from one another. 6.67259 X 10-11 newtons per square kilogram is roughly the gravitational constant. G is its identifier.

<h3> where is the strongest gravity is?</h3>

The gravitational pull of the earth is greatest near sea level, normally, and weakens as you get further from the center, such as to the summit of Mt. Everest. Because the obloid earth was slightly wider, but only by a minor ratio, the gravity just at poles is stronger than that at the equator.

Calculate the standard electrode potential difference (e°) of the daniell cell (at 1 bar) if temperature is 473.15 k.
anzhelika [568]
Missing data in the text of the exercise: The molar concentration of Zinc is 10 times the molar concentration of copper.

Solution:

1) First of all, let's calculate the standard electrode potential difference at standard temperature. This is given by:
E^0=E_{cat}^0-E_{an}^0
where E_{cat}^0 is the standard potential at the cathode, while E_{an}^0 is the standard potential at the anode. For a Daniel Cell, at the cathode we have copper: E_{Cu}^0=+0.34 V, while at the anode we have zinc: E_{Zn}^0=-0.76 V. Therefore, at standard temperature the electrode potential difference of the Daniel Cell is
E^0=+0.34 V-(-0.76 V)=+1.1 V

2) To calculate E^0 at any temperature T, we should use Nerst equation:
E^0(T)=E^0- \frac{R T}{z F} \ln  \frac{[Zn]}{[Cu]}
where 
R=8.31 J/(K mol)
T=473.15 K is the temperature in our problem
z=2 is the number of electrons transferred in the cell's reaction
F=9.65\cdot 10^4 C/mol is the Faraday's constant
[Zn] and [Cu] are the molar concentrations of zinc and in copper, and in our problem we have [Zn]=10[Cu].
Using all these data inside the equation, and using E^0=+1.1 V, in the end we find:
E^0(T)=E^0- \frac{R T}{z F} \ln \frac{[Zn]}{[Cu]}=+1.053 V

A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, heading due north at 8.00 m/s relative to the water. The local ocean current i
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth V = 9.05 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The local ocean current is  = 1.52 m/s

Direction \theta = 40°

Velocity component in X - direction V_{x} = 1.52 \cos 40°

V_{x} = 1.164 \frac{m}{s}

Velocity component in Y - direction V_{y} = 8 + 1.52 \sin 40°

V_{y} = 8.97 \frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth

V = \sqrt{V_{x}^{2} + V_{y} ^{2}  }

Put the values of V_{x} and V_{y} we get,

⇒ V = \sqrt{1.164^{2} + 8.97 ^{2}  }

⇒ V = 9.05 \frac{m}{s}

This is the velocity of the ship relative to the earth.

This equation is used to calculate the properties of a gas under nonideal conditions.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Van der Waal's equation

Explanation:

The Van der Waal's equation is use to calculate the properties of a gas under nonideal or real gases conditions.

(P + \frac{an^2}{V^2})(V-nb) = nRT .

Here P, V ,T ,n and R have usual meaning as in the ideal gas equation

that is PV=nRT

with the difference of constant a and b.  a and b are constants representing magnitude of intermolecular attraction  and excluded volume respectively respectively.
