Heat released from combustion is calculated by multiplying the amount of substance being burned with its heat of combustion. From this, we can calculate the mass needed from the system above. The calculation is as follows:

-543 kJ = x x -1320 kJ/mol
x = 0.411 mol 

Mass of x = 0.411 x 71.83 g/mol
Mass of x = 29.55 g

How far will a free falling object fall in 8.7 secs if it started from rest? Remember acceleration is negative for free fall. Do
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

h~=371.26m

Explanation:

when an object falls we use the equations of accelerated motion. There is only one that gives distance.

x = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

Since we have no initial velocity (started from rest) we can get rid of the (ut) term

where a we substitute g (gravitational acceleration, constant for given heights and almost 9.81m/s^2).

h =  \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 9.81 \times  {8.7}^{2}  = 371.26m

Which statement correctly distinguishes between mechanical and electromagnetic waves?
mezya [45]
The statement that correctly distinguishes between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is: "<span>Mechanical waves carry energy through matter; electromagnetic waves carry energy through space.</span>" Mechanical waves need a medium to propagate, therefore they can only carry energy through matter. Electromagnetic is not limited by vacuum, therefore they can carry energy through space.

Two boys with masses of 40 kg and 60 kg stand on a horizontal frictionless surface holding the ends of a light 10-m long rod. Th
kari74 [83]

When they meet the 40-kg boy will have moved a distance of 6 m.

Displacement of the 40 kg boy

The displacement of the 40 kg boy is calculated from the principle of center mass.

X(40 kg) = (60 x 10 m    +  40 x 0)/(40 kg + 60 kg)

X(40 kg) = (600)/(100) = 6 m

X(60 kg) = (60 x 0    +  40 x 10 m)/(40 kg + 60 kg)

X(60 kg) = (400)/(100) = 4 m

Thus, when they meet the 40-kg boy will have moved a distance of 6 m.

What is the distance covered by a freely falling object 6 seconds after being dropped? After 10 seconds?
Monica [59]

Answer:

Distance s=ut+1/2 at^2

If it’s released then this becomes

s=1/2at^2

s=1/2 *9.81*9

s=44.1 m

The distribution of total body protein in healthy adult men is approximately Normal, with mean 12.3 kg and standard deviation 0.
Sophie [7]

Answer:

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = 0.9876

Explanation:

given,

mean (μ) = 12.3 Kg

standard deviation (σ ) = 0.1

random sample = 25

probability between 12.25 and 12.35 kg

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = P(\dfrac{12.35-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{\sqrt{n}}}\leq z)- P(\dfrac{12.25-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{\sqrt{n}}}\leq z)

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = P(\dfrac{12.35-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{\sqrt{25}}}\leq z)- P(\dfrac{12.25-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{\sqrt{25}}}\leq z)

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = P(\dfrac{12.35-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{5}}\leq z)- P(\dfrac{12.25-12.3}{\dfrac{0.1}{5}}\leq z)

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = P(\dfrac{5 (12.35-12.3)}{0.1}\leq z)- P(\dfrac{5(12.25-12.3)}{0.1}\leq z)

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = P(\dfrac{2.5\leq z)- P(-2.5\leq z)

using z-table

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = 0.9938 - 0.0062

P(12.25\leq x \leq 12.35 ) = 0.9876
