How are parentheses used in chemical formulas

Physics
2 answers:
BARSIC [14]3 years ago

In a chemical compound, parenthesis are used to distinguish the number of polyatomic ions from the number of atoms. Such as in the compound calcium nitrate, it is written as Ca(NO_{3} ) _{2}. This means there are two nitrate ions for every one calcium ion.<span>

A 12.70 g bullet has a muzzle velocity (at the moment it leaves the end of a firearm) of 430 m/s when rifle with a weight of 25.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

2.1844 m/s

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of momentum can be applied here.

when two objects interact, the total momentum remains the same  provided no external forces are acting.

Consider the whole system , gun and bullet. as an isolated system, so the net momentum is constant. In particular before firing the gun, the net momentum is zero. The conservation of momentum,

0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}  + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle}  \\

assume the bullet goes to right side and the gravitational acceleration =10 ms^{-2}

so now the weight of the rifle=\frac{25}{10}  

0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}  + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle}  \\\\0=(12.70*10^{-3}) *430ms^{-1} +(\frac{25}{10} )*v_{rifle} \\v_{rifle} =-2.1844ms^{-1}

this is a negative velocity to the right side. that means the rifle recoils to the left side

What’s the dependent variable?
Nikolay [14]

Answer: number of bacteria

Explanation:

A easier way. I like to remember it is that x axis = independent and yaxis = dependent variable, but if that doesn’t help think about this

Why would the number of bacteria effect the amount of time. It doesn’t make sense because time goes on forever and nothing can change about it but time can change the number of bacteria because if you had a timer of 30 seconds and the bacteria is for example 10 and if you had a timer of one minute then the number of bacteria change because of time, if you flip it, it doesn’t make sense

The two cars collide at right angles in the intersection of two icy roads. Car A has a mass of 1965 kg and car B has a mass of 1
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

U2 = 47.38m/s = initial velocity of B before impact

Explanation:

An example of the diagram is shown in the attached file because of missing angle of direction in the question

Mass A, B are mass of cars

A = 1965

B =1245

U1 = initial velocity of A = 52km/hr

U2 = initial velocity of B

V = common final velocity of two cars

BU2 = (A + B)*V sin ¤ ...eq1 y plane

AU1 = (A + B) *V cos ¤ ....equ 2plane

From equ 2

V = AU1/(A + B)*cos ¤

Substitute V into equation 1

We have

U2 = (AU1/B)tan ¤ where ¤ = angle of direction which is taken to be 30°

Substitute all parameters to get

U2 = (1965/1245)*52 * tan 30°

U2 = 47.38m/s
