Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g

ains or losses to adjust diets. One way to do this is to exert a known force on an astronaut and measure the acceleration produced. Suppose a net external force of magnitude 52.0 N is exerted and the magnitude of the astronaut's acceleration is measured to be 0.936 m/s2. Calculate her mass.

Answer:

55.56kg

Explanation:

Given:

F= 52N

a=0.936m/s²

Applyinc Newton's second law, that states: force is equal to mass times acceleration.

F = ma

m=F/a =>52 / 0.936

m=55.56kg

Assume that you can heat water with perfect insulation (all the heat from combustion of ethanol is transferred to water). What i
krok68 [10]

Answer:

volumme =0.36 ml

Explanation:

total heat required can be obtained by using following formula

q= mC \Delta T.......(1)

where,

m - mass of water,

C - specific heat capacity of water and = 4.184 j g^{-1} °C

\Delta T - total change in temperature.  = 10°C

The density of water is 1 g/cc. hence, 200 mL of water is equal to 200 g

putting all value in the above equation (1)

q = 200*4.184* 10 ° = 8368 J.

Therefore total number of moles of ethanol required to supply 8368 J of heat is

\frac {8368}{1368000} = 0.006117 moles.

The molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol.

The mass of ethanol required is 46* 0.006117 = 0.28138 g

The density of ethanol is 0.78 g/ml.

The volume of ethanol required is

\frac {0.28138}{0.78} = 0.36 ml

What is one way that light waves differ from sound waves?(1 point)
Shalnov [3]
Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant.

Hope this helps!

Describe electronegativity, and explain the trend of electronegativity in the Periodic Table
vaieri [72.5K]

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the property of an atom that attracts the shared pair of an electron to itself. There is a trend in the periodic table.

While moving down in a group, the electronegativity decreases. This is due to the reason that as we move down the number of shells added and so the electron become very far from the pull of the nucleus.

As we move across a period the electronegativity increases. This is because of the no. of charge on the nucleus increase.
