At the county fair, Carrie and Sam climbed up on the carousel horses. Around and around they went; the horses also bobbed up and

down. When they got off of the carousel, Carrie told Sam they had been accelerating during their ride. Sam disagreed; they had been moving at a constant speed. Whose response is fully correct, and why?

I believe sam's response is correct.
When human is riding a moving target with constant speed over a period of time, we tend to have  a visual acceleration perception due to our optical movement.
This make people such as Carrie believes that the carousel horses are accelerating while it actually stayed at constant pace.

What is the molarity of a solution containing 60. grams of NaOH dissolved in 400. mL of water?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer: 3.75 M

Explanation:

400 mL = 0.4 L

NaOH has a molar mass of around 40 g/mol.

\frac{60 grams}{40 g/mol} = 1.5 moles

Molarity = \frac{1.5 moles}{0.4 Liters} = 3.75 M

The most common source of copper (cu) is the mineral chalcopyrite (cufes2). how many kilograms of chalcopyrite must be mined to
tigry1 [53]

Answer : 0.8663 Kg of chalcopyrite must be mined to obtained 300 g of pure Cu.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Cu = 300 g

Molar mass of Cu = 63.546 g/mole

Molar mass of CuFeS_2 = 183.511 g/mole

  • First we have to calculate the moles of Cu.

\text{ Moles of Cu}=\frac{\text{ Given mass of Cu}}{\text{ Molar mass of Cu}}= \frac{300g}{63.546g/mole}=4.7209moles

The moles of Cu = 4.7209 moles

From the given chemical formula, CuFeS_2 we conclude that the each mole of compound contain one mole of Cu.

So, The moles of Cu = Moles of CuFeS_2 = 4.4209 moles

  • Now we have to calculate the mass of CuFeS_2.

Mass of CuFeS_2 = Moles of CuFeS_2 × Molar mass of CuFeS_2 = 4.4209 moles × 183.511 g/mole = 866.337 g

Mass of CuFeS_2 = 866.337 g = 0.8663 Kg         (1 Kg = 1000 g)

Therefore, 0.8663 Kg of chalcopyrite must be mined to obtained 300 g of pure Cu.

Of the colors on the visible light spectrum, which one has the longest wavelength, lowest frequency, and lowest energy?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Red

Explanation:

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency. They carry the most energy.

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm

Blue - 440 - 490 nm

Green - 490 - 570 nm

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm

Orange - 585 - 620 nm

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency and least amount of energy

Therefore, <em>red </em>is the answer you're looking for.

I hope this helps and that you have a great day! :)

The electronegativity values of fluorine, oxygen, and hydrogen are compared in the table. Comparison of Electronegativity Elemen
Dvinal [7]

The hydrogen bonding in H₂O is stronger than that of HF

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attraction in which electrostatic attraction is established between hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom of a neighboring molecule.

  • The strength of hydrogen bonds depends on the how electronegative an atom is.
  • Electronegativity refers to the tendency of an atom to gain electrons.
  • The higher the value, the higher the tendency.
  • This why oxygen with a higher electronegativity will form a stronger hydrogen bond with hydrogen compared to fluorine.
