What is the formula for momentum?

1 answer:

5 0

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. Thus, P=mv where, P is momentum.m is mass of the body.v is velocity of the body.

An elephant lifts 7 large logs from the ground to a container 5 meters above the ground as part of a zoo demonstration. The elep

Alisiya [41]

The work done by the elephant to lift one log is the force multiplied by the height at which the log has been lifted:
$W=Fh=250 N \cdot 5 m=1250 J$
And so, the total work done to lift the 7 logs is 7 times the work done to lift each log:
$W_t = 7 W=7 \cdot 1250 N=8750 J$

The diameter of a copper atom is approximately 2.28e-10 m. The massof one mole of copper is 64 grams. Assume that the atoms area

KIM [24]

1) Mass of one copper atom: $1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

2) There are $9.33\cdot 10^{24}$ atoms in the cube

3) Mass of the cubical block: 992 kg

Explanation:

We are told here that the mass of one mole of copper is

$M=64 g$

for

$n=1 mol$ (number of moles)

We also know that the number of atoms inside 1 mole of substance is equal to Avogadro number:

$N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}$

This means that $N_A$ atoms of copper have a mass of M = 64 g. Therefore, we can find the mass of one copper atom by dividing the total mass by the avogadro number:

$m=\frac{M}{N_A}=\frac{64}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}}=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

We are told that the diameter of a copper atom is

$d=2.28\cdot 10^{-10} m$

We can assume that the atoms are arranged in a cube, and that they are all attached to each other; so the side of the cube can be written as size of one atom multiplied by the number of atom per side:

$L=Nd$
