By equation of motion we have S = ut + 0.5 a $t^{2}$

Where u = Initail velocity, S= dispalcement, t = time taken, a = acceleration

Here S = 3500-400 = 3100m, u = 0m/s, g = 9.8 m/ $s^{2}$

So, 3100 = 0+0.5*9.8* $t^{2}$

$t^{2}$ = 3100/4.9

t = $\sqrt{3100/4.9}$

t = 25.15 seconds

It takes 52,000 Joules to heat a cup of coffee to boiling from room temperature. How long a piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil wo

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

L = 1.11 x $10^{6}$ m, is the length of piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil to make capacitor large enough to hold 52000 J of energy.

Explanation:

Solution:

Data Given:

Heat Energy = 52000 J

Dielectric Constant of the plastic Bag = 3.7 = K

Thickness = 2.6 x $10^{5}$ m =d

V = 610 volts

A = width x Length

width = 20 cm = 20 x $10^{-2}$ m

Length = ?

So,

we know that,

U = 1/2 C Δ $v^{2}$

U = 52000 J

C = ?

V = 610 volts'

So,

U = 1/2 C Δ $v^{2}$

52000 J = (0.5) x (C) x ( $610^{2}$ )

C = 0.28 F

And we also know that,

C = $\frac{K*E*A}{d}$

E = 8.85 x $10 ^{-12}$

K = 3.7

A = 0.20 x L

d = 2.6 x $10^{5}$ m

Plugging in the values into the formula, we get:

0.28 = $\frac{3.7 * 8.85 .10^{-12} * (0.20 . L) }{2.6 . 10^{5} }$

Solving for L, we get:

L = 1.11 x $10^{6}$ m,

is the length of piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil to make capacitor large enough to hold 52000 J of energy.

A very delicate sample is placed 0.150 cm from the objective lens of a microscope. The focal length of the objective is 0.140 cm

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

m = 14*26 = 364

Explanation:

overall magnification is given as m

$m = m_{o}* m_{e}$

mo magnification of objective lens

me magnification of EYE lens

where mo is given as

$m_{o} = \frac{v_{o}}{-u _{0}}$

and me as

$m_{e} = 1+\frac{D}{f_{e}}$

d is distant of distinct vision = 25.0 cm for normal eye

fe = focal length of eye piece

focal length of objective lense is 0.140 cm

we know that

$\frac{1}{v_{0}}-\frac{1}{u_{0}}=\frac{1}{f_{0}}$

$\frac{1}{v_{0}} = \frac{1}{u_{0}} + \frac{1}{f_{0}}$

$\frac{1}{v_{0}} = \frac{1}{0.150} + \frac{1}{0.14}$

$\frac{1}{v_{o}} = 2.1 cm$

$m_{o} = \frac{2.1}{0.150} = 14$

$m_{e} = 1+\frac{25}{1}$

$m_{e} =26$

$m = m_{o}* m_{e}$

m = 14*26 = 364

20.0 moles, 1840 g, of a nonvolatile solute, C 3H 8O 3 is added to a flask with an unknown amount of water and stirred. The solu

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

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

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg
