A decomposition reaction would be the electrolysis.

Usually it is separated in two equations, one for oxidation and another for reduction, which are called half reactions:

2 H+ + 2e− → H2

2 H2O → O2 + 4 H+ + 4e−

Then you should add them up. In order for the equation to be balanced, the first equation has to be added twice:

2 H+ + 2e− + 2 H+ + 2e−+2 H2O → H2+ H2 + O2 + 4 H+ + 4e−

4 H+ + 4e− +2 H2O → 2H2 + O2 + 4 H+ + 4e−

Then you should cancel the substances which are both in reactives and in products, and also the electrons:

2 H2O → 2H2 + O2

And there you have the overall equation for electrolysis.

Electrolysis does not happen naturally – you have to provide electric energy for it to happen.

A synthesis reaction would be the opposite reaction, which would be called: electrosyntesis.

2H2 + O2 → 2 H2O

An object 16.8 cm tall is placed in front of a converging lens. A real image, 46 cm tall, is formed on the other side of the len
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

2.74

Explanation:

Magnification = image distance/object distance

Mag = v/u

Given

v = 46cm

u = 16.8

Magnification = 46/16.8

Magnification = 2.74

Hence the magnification is 2.74

(4%) Problem 9: A mass is connected to a spring and is allowed to move horizontally. The mass is at a position L when the spring
skad [1K]

Answer:

a) Acceleration is zero , c)   Speed ​​is cero

Explanation:

a) the equation that governs the simple harmonic motion is

         x = A cos (wt +φφ)

Where A is the amplitude of the movement, w is the angular velocity and φ the initial phase determined by the initial condition

Body acceleration is

         a = d²x / dt²

Let's look for the derivatives

         dx / dt = - A w sin (wt + φ)

         a = d²x / dt² = - A w² cos (wt + φ)

In the instant when it is not stretched x = 0

As the spring is released at maximum elongation, φ = 0

            0 = A cos wt

            Cos wt = 0         wt = π / 2

Acceleration is valid for this angle

           a = -A w² cos π/2 = 0

Acceleration is zero

b)

c) When the spring is compressed x = A

Speed ​​is

             v = dx / dt

             v = - A w sin wt

We look for time

            A = A cos wt

            cos wt = 1         wt = 0, π

For this time the speedy vouchers

            v = -A w sin 0 = 0

Speed ​​is cero
