For a spacecraft or a molecule to leave the moon, it must reach the escape velocity (speed) of the moon, which is 2.37 km/s. The

average daytime temperature of the moon’s surface is 365 K. What is the rms speed (in m/s) of an oxygen molecule at this temperature?rms speed = m/s

Answer:

Vrms = 291 m/s

Explanation:

The root mean square velocity or vrms is the square root of the average square velocity and is. vrms=√3RTM. Where M is equal to the molar mass of the molecule in kg/mol.

Temperature = 365 K

Root mean square velocity = ?

molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol.

But xygen gas (O2) is comprised of two oxygen atoms bonded together. Therefore:

   molar mass of O2 = 2 x 16

   molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

   Convert this to kg/mol:

   molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol x 1 kg/1000 g

   molar mass of O2 = 3.2 x 10-2 kg/mol

Molar mass of Oxygen = 3.2 x 10-2 kg/mol

Vrms = √[3(8.3145 (kg·m2/sec2)/K·mol)(365 K)/3.2 x 10-2 kg/mol]

Vrms = 291 m/s

Answer:

Vrms = 533 m/s

Explanation:

The formula for the root mean square molecular speed is given as;

V_rms=√(3RT/M)

Where;

M is the molar mass of the molecule

T is Temperature

R is gas constant which has a value of 8.31 J/mol.k

V_rms is root mean square speed

Now let's calculate the molar mass of the molecule whuch in this case is oxygen.

Oxygen has a formula of O_2

Now, molar mass of one atom is 16 g/mol

Thus, molar mass of the 2 atoms would be; 2 x 16 = 32 g/mol = 0.032 kg/mol

T = 365K

So, plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;

V_rms = √[(3x8.31x365 )/0.032]

Vrms = 533 m/s

Help please! Will give brainliest to first correct answer!
Olegator [25]

Answer:

1) Addition of a catalyst

2) To change the reaction rate of slope B to look like slope A, simply add a catalyst to speed up the rate of reaction, giving you a higher amount of products in a shorter amount of time (line A)

Explanation:

1 and 2)Two things can alter the rate of a reaction, either the addition of a catylist which will not alter the composition of the products or reactants, but will accelerate the reaction time, or an increase in temperature will also increase the rate at which a reaction will occur.

You could choose temperature also and have the same result, it's your choice both are correct, but catalyst is the easiest.

Which of the following is a process that occurs at divergent boundaries?
PIT_PIT [208]
The appropriate answer is 4. The formation of Mid-Ocean ridges. There are two types of divergent margins: continental separation and oceanic floor spreading. Where the sea floor separates magma upwells and new oceanic crust is formed. Mid ocean ridges are home to hydrothermal vents. These support a unique ecosystem of marine organisms. The Mid- Atlantic Ridge where the African and Eurasian plates separate from the North and South American plates.

A pendulum has a length of 2 m and a 30 kg mass hanging on the end. What is the period of the
anastassius [24]

Answer:

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

Explanation:

Hi!

The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:

T = 2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}  }

T--> period

L --> length of the pendulum

g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)

so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!

T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

*Note*

- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different

I hope this helped!
