Compare and contrast the solar eclipse seen in this video to a lunar eclipse.

Crank

Answer: sadly, I can’t see the video. However, a lunar eclipse happens when the moon is hidden by the earth’s shadow. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon casts a shadow on the earth.

Explanation: I’m not completely sure if this is what you were looking for, but I hope it helps anyway.

A 230.-mL sample of a 0.240 M solution is left on a hot plate overnight; the following morning, the solution is 1.75 M. What vol

Gwar [14]

Answer:

The volume of water evaporated is 199mL

Explanation:

Concentration is calculated with the following formula

$C=\frac{n}{V}$

where n is the number of moles of solute and V is the volume of the solution (in this case is the same as the solvent volume) in liters.

So we isolate the variable n to know the amount of moles, using the volume given in liters

$230mL=0.23L$

$n=C*V=0.240 M*0.23L=0.055 mol$

Now, we isolate the variable V to know the new volume with the new concentration given.

$V=\frac{n}{C} =0.055mol/1.75M=0.031L=31mL$

Finally, the volume of water evaporated is the difference between initial and final volume.

$V_{ev}= V_{i} -V_{f} =230mL-31mL=199mL$

Calculate the acceleration of gravity as a function of depth in the earth (assume it is a sphere). You may use an average densit

Ber [7]

Solution :

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth, g $=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

$g=\frac{G(4/3 \pi R^2 \rho)}{R^2}=G(4/3 \pi R \rho)$

Acceleration due to gravity at 1000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-1000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 822486 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.822 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 8.23 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 2000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-2000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 673552 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.673 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 6.73 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 3000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-3000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 3371 \times 153.86 \times 10^{-8}$

= 5.18 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 4000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-4000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 153.84 \times 2371 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.364 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 3.64 m/s

4. O/N 15/P11/Q11

anygoal [31]

Answer:

B) 4500 Pa

Explanation:

As pressure is force per unit area,

P = F/A

It stands to reason that the smallest pressure for a given force is when it is shared by the largest area.

The possible areas are

0.30(0.40) = 0.12 m²

0.30(0.50) = 0.15 m²

0.40(0.50) = 0.20 m²

The pressure when the face with the largest area (0.20 m²) is down is

P = 900 / 0.20 = 4500 N/m² or 4500 Pa

the other possible pressures would be

900/0.15 = 6000 Pa

900/0.12 = 7500 Pa

which are both larger than our solution.
