F = (mass)(acceleration) = ma

m = 55 kg

Vi = 20 m/s

t = 0.5 s

Vf = 0 m/s (since she was put to rest)

a=(Vf-Vi)/t

a=(0-20)/5

a = 40 m/s^2 (decelerating)

F = ma = (55 kg)(40 m/s^2)

F = 2200 N

Calculate the empirical formula the compound with the following percent composition: 27.59%C 1.15%H 16.09%N 55.17%O
jeyben [28]

Answer: C2HNO3

Explanation: C = 27.59/12.011 = 2.297

H = 1.15/1.008 = 1.1409

N = 16.09/14.007 = 1.1487

O = 55.17/15.999 = 3.4483

Divide by smallest result:

C = 2

H=1

N=1

O = 3

Empirical formula = C2HNO3
