You run a race with your friend. At first you each have the same kinetic energy, but then you find that she is beating you. When

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

52.49 Kg

Explanation:

Let m1 and v1 denote your mass and velocity respectively

Let m2 and v2 denote your friends mass and velocity respectively

Kinetic energy is given by

$KE= 0.5mv^{2}$

Since your kinetic energies are the same hence

$0.5m1(v1)^{2}=0.5m2(v2)^{2}$

$m1(v1)^{2}=m2(v2)^{2}$ and making m2 the subject then

$m2=\frac { m1(v1)^{2}}{(v2)^{2}}$

Since v2 is v1+0.28v1=1.28v1

Substituting m1 for 86 Kg

$m2=\frac { 86 Kg(v1)^{2}}{(1.28v1)^{2}}= 52.49023\approx 52.49 Kg$

NASA developed a reflective foil barrier to help shield spacecraft from heat transfer in space. These reflective barriers are no

morpeh [17]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.

Compare the geology of Callisto, Ganymede, and Titan.

V125BC [204]

Explanation: Ganymede, Callisto, Titan are the moons of outer planets or gaseous planets which are made up of ice and rock. Callisto is an ice-covered moon and has no inner or outer activity and is considered basically geologically dead. Ganymede has rocky core and shows signs of tectonic activity, including long cracks in the crust and regions of young surface terrain. Titan has active geology of liquid hydrocarbons on the surface, rain back onto the surface and evaporation into the atmosphere. It has similar size, composition and mass to Ganymede and Callisto.

What is the force on a 250 kg elevator that is falling freely at 9.8 m/sec2?

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Since it is falling freely, the only force on it is its weight, w.

w = m × g = 250 kg × 9.8 m/s^2 = 2450 Newton/N

A 19.12 g mixture of Ca(NO3)2 and KCl is dissolved in 149 g of water. The freezing point of the solution was measured as −5.77 ∘

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The mass percentage of calcium nitrate is 31.23%.

Explanation:

Let the the mass of calcium nitrate be x and mass of potassium chloride be y.

Total mass of mixture = 19.12 g

x + y = 19.12 g..(1)

Mass of solvent = 149 g = 0.149 kg

Freezing point of the solution, $T_f$ = -5.77 °C

Molal freezing constant of water = 1.86 °C/m =1.86 °C/(mol/kg)

The van't Hoff factor contribution by calcium nitrate is 3 and by potassium chloride is 2.So:

i = 3

i' = 2

Freezing point of water = T = 0°C

$\Delta T_f=T-T_f=0^oC-(-5.77^oC)=5.77^oC$

$\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m$

$Molality=m(mol/kg)=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}$

$5.77^oC=1.86 ^oC/(mol/kg)\times (\frac{ i\times x}{164 g/mol\times 0.149 kg}+\frac{i'\times y}{74.5 g/mol0.149 kg})$

On solving we get:

$\frac{3x}{164 g/mol}+\frac{2x}{74.5 g/mol}=0.4622 mol$ ....(2)

Solving equation (1)(2) for x and y:

x =5.973 g

y = 13.147 g

Mass percent of $Ca(NO_3)_2$ in the mixture:

$\frac{x}{19.21 g}\times 100=\frac{5.973 g}{19.12 g}=31.23\%$

The mass percentage of calcium nitrate is 31.23%.
