(a) What is the escape speed on a spherical asteroid whose radius is 545 km and whose gravitational acceleration at the surface

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1777.92 m/s

Explanation:

R = Radius of asteroid = 545 km

M = Mass of planet

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 2.9 m/s²

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Acceleration due to gravity is given by

$g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{gR^2}{G}$

The expression of escape velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2G}{R}\dfrac{gR^2}{G}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gR}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 2.9\times 545000}\\\Rightarrow v=1777.92\ m/s$

The escape speed is 1777.92 m/s

Determine the empirical formula for a compound that is 36.86% n and 63.14% o by mass.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

$NO_{1.499}$

Explanation:

Let assume that 100 kg of the compound is tested. The quantity of kilomoles for each element are, respectively:

$n_{N} = \frac{36.86\,kg}{14.006\,\frac{kg}{kmol} }$

$n_{N} = 2.632\,kmol$

$n_{O} = \frac{63.14\,kg}{15.999\,\frac{kg}{kmol} }$

$n_{O} = 3.946\,kmol$

Ratio of kilomoles oxygen to kilomole nitrogen is:

$n^{*} = \frac{3.946\,kmol}{2.632\,kmol}$

$n^{*}= 1.499$

It means that exists 1.499 kilomole oxygen for each kilomole nitrogen.

The empirical formula for the compound is:

$NO_{1.499}$
