The answer for this question is standing up in a boat.

Standing up in a boat is most likely to cause someone to fall overboard especially if someone starts to rock the boat or if a wave occurs and the person standing is not prepared of the said situations. You may also consider the causes standing on a slippery surface and slip off as well.

Charge is placed on two conducting spheres that are very far apart and connected by a long thin wire. The radius of the smaller

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

surface charge density on each sphere is $440 \times 10^{-9}$ C

Explanation:

given data

radius of smaller sphere = 5 cm

radius of larger sphere is 12 cm

electric field at surface of larger sphere = 660 kV/m = 660 × 1000 v/m

solution

we apply here electric field formula that is express as

E = $(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon })\times (\frac{Q_{1} }{R^{2} } )$ .................1

put here value

660000 = $9 \times 10^9 \times \frac{Q1}{0.12^2}$

Q1 = 1056 × $10^{-9}$

and

here field inside a conductor is zero so that electric potential ( V ) is constant

$\frac{Q{1} }{R} = \frac{Q{2} }{r}$ ..................2

so Q2 will be

Q2 = $\frac{5}{12} \times 1056 \times 10^{-9}$

Q2 = $440 \times 10^{-9}$ C

Given the thermochemical equations X2+3Y2⟶2XY3ΔH1=−370 kJ X2+2Z2⟶2XZ2ΔH2=−120 kJ 2Y2+Z2⟶2Y2ZΔH3=−270 kJ Calculate the change in

Alchen [17]

Answer : The change in enthalpy of the reaction is, -310 kJ

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given main reaction is,

$4XY_3+7Z_2\rightarrow 6Y_2Z+4XZ_2$ $\Delta H=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) $X_2+3Y_2\rightarrow 2XY_3$ $\Delta H_1=-370kJ$

(2) $X_2+2Z_2\rightarrow 2XZ_2$ $\Delta H_2=-120kJ$

(3) $2Y_2+Z_2\rightarrow 2Y_2Z$ $\Delta H_3=-270kJ$

Now we will reverse the reaction 1 and multiply reaction 1 by 2, reaction 2 by 2 and reaction 3 by 3 then adding all the equations, we get :

(1) $4XY_3\rightarrow 2X_2+6Y_2$ $\Delta H_1=2\times (+370kJ)=740kJ$

(2) $2X_2+4Z_2\rightarrow 4XZ_2$ $\Delta H_2=2\times (-120kJ)=-240kJ$

(3) $6Y_2+3Z_2\rightarrow 6Y_2Z$ $\Delta H_3=3\times (-270kJ)=-810kJ$

The expression for enthalpy of formation of $CH_4$ will be,

$\Delta H=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3$

$\Delta H=(+740kJ)+(-240kJ)+(-810kJ)$

$\Delta H=-310kJ$

Therefore, the change in enthalpy of the reaction is, -310 kJ

A figure skater skates across a rink of length 50 m in 12.1 seconds. a. What is the average speed of the skater? (2 points) b. I

melamori03 [73]

(a) The skater covers a distance of S=50 m in a time of t=12.1 s, so its average speed is the ratio between the distance covered and the time taken:
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{50 m}{12.1 s}=4.13 m/s$

(b) The initial speed of the skater is
$v_i = 4 m/s$
while the final speed is
$v_f = 5.3 m/s$
and the time taken to accelerate to this velocity is t=2 s, so the acceleration of the skater is given by
$a= \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}= \frac{5.3 m/s-4.0 m/s}{2.0 s}=0.65 m/s^2$

(c) The initial speed of the skater is
$v_i = 13.0 m/s$
while the final speed is
$v_f=0$
since she comes to a stop. The distance covered is S=8 m, so we can use the following relationship to find the acceleration of the skater:
$2aS=v_f^2 -v_i^2$
from which we find
$a= \frac{-v_i^2}{2S}= \frac{-(13.0m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 8.0 m}=-10.6 m/s^2$
where the negative sign means it is a deceleration.

A 6.00-mH solenoid is connected in series with a 5.0-μF capacitor and an AC source. The solenoid has internal resistance 3.0 Ω w

son4ous [18]

Answer:

5773.50269 Hz

23 A

Explanation:

$L$ = Inductance = 6 mH

$C$ = Capacitance = 5 μF

$R$ = Resistance = 3 Ω

$\epsilon$ = Maximum emf = 69 V

Resonant angular frequency is given by

$\omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{6\times 10^{-3}\times 5\times 10^{-6}}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5773.50269\ Hz$

The resonant angular frequency is 5773.50269 Hz

Current is given by

$I=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{69}{3}\\\Rightarrow I=23\ A$

The current amplitude at the resonant angular frequency is 23 A
