Refer to the figure shown below.

From the geometry,
y = 100 - (44 - 3) = 59 ft
From the Pythagorean theorem,
x² = 100² - 59² = 6519
x = 8007403 ft

Calculate the central angle, θ.
cos θ = 59/100 = 0.59
θ = 53.84° = 0.9397 radians

Calculate the arc length pq.
S = pq = 0.9394*100 = 93.94 ft

Calculate the angular velocity.
ω = (0.9397 radians)/(5 s) = 0.188 rad/s

Calculate the tangential velocity.
v = (100 ft)*(0.188 rad/s) = 18.8 ft/s

Calculate the time for 1 revolution.
T = (2π rad)/(0.188 rad/s) = 33.4 s

Answers:
The angular speed is  0.188 rad/s
The tangential speed is 18.8 ft/s
The time for one revolution is 33.4 s

The vapor pressure of diethyl ether (ether) is 463.57 mm Hg at 25°C. How many grams of chlorophyll, C55H72MgN4O5, a nonvolatile,
mixer [17]

Answer:

29.4855 grams of chlorophyll

Explanation:

From Raoult's law

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 457.45 mmHg ÷ 463.57 mmHg = 0.987

Mass of solvent (diethyl ether) = 187.4 g

MW of diethyl ether (C2H5OC2H5) = 74 g/mol

Number of moles of solvent = mass/MW = 187.4/74 = 2.532 mol

Let the moles of solute (chlorophyll) be y

Total moles of solution = moles of solute + moles of solvent = (y + 2.532) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.987 = 2.532/(y + 2.532)

y + 2.532 = 2.532/0.987

y + 2.532 = 2.565

y = 2.565 - 2.532 = 0.033

Moles of solute (chlorophyll) = 0.033 mol

Mass of chlorophyll = moles of chlorophyll × MW = 0.033 × 893.5 = 29.4855 grams
