Answer: Gravitational force.

Explanation :

Planets are constantly moving. The gravity of sun is responsible for this motion which keeps the planets in their orbits. There is no other force present in the solar system which can overcome this force.

There are eight planets in our solar system. The motion of planets in elliptical orbit is due to gravitational force.

Answer:

  • <u>77.8 m/s, downward</u>

Explanation:

For uniform acceleration motion, the average speed is equal to half the soum of the initial velocity, Vi, and the final velocity, Vf

  • Average speed = (Vf + Vi)/2

Also, by definition, the average speed is the distance divided by the time:

  • Average speed = distance / time

Then:

  • (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

Other kinematic equation for uniform acceleration is:

  • Vf = Vi + a×t

Since the window is falling and the air resistance is ignored, a = g (gravitational acceleration ≈ 9.8m/s²)

Replacing the known values we can set a system of two equations:

From (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

(Vf + Vi) = 2 × 300m/6.62s

  • Vf + Vi = 90.634      equation 1

From Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf - Vi = 9.8 (6.62)

  • Vf - Vi = 64.876     equation 2

Adding the two equations:

  • 2Vf = 155.510

  • Vf = 77.8 m/s downward (velocities must be reported with their directions)

Glycerin (C3H8O3) is a nonvolatile liquid. What is the vapor pressure of a solution made by adding 154 g of glycerin to 316 mL o
garri49 [273]

Answer:

P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg

Explanation:

According to given:

  • molecular mass of glycerin, M_g=3\times 12+8+3\times 16=92\ g.mol^{-1}
  • molecular mass of water, M_w=2+16=18\ g.mol^{-1}
  • ∵Density of water is 0.992\ g.cm^{-3}= 0.992\ g.mL^{-1}
  • ∴mass of water in 316 mL, m_w=316\times 0.992=313.5 g
  • mass of glycerin, m_g=154\ g
  • pressure of mixture, P_x=55.32\ torr= 55.32\ mm.Hg
  • temperature of mixture, T_x=40^{\circ}C

<em>Upon the formation of solution the vapour pressure will be reduced since we have one component of solution as non-volatile.</em>

<u>moles of water in the given quantity:</u>

n_w=\frac{m_w}{M_w}

n_w=\frac{313.5}{18}

n_w=17.42 moles

<u>moles of glycerin in the given quantity:</u>

n_g=\frac{m_g}{M_g}

n_g=\frac{154}{92}

n_g=1.674 moles

<u>Now the mole fraction of water:</u>

X_w=\frac{n_w}{n_w+n_g}

X_w=\frac{17.42}{17.42+1.674}

X_w=0.912

<em>Since glycerin is non-volatile in nature so the vapor pressure of the resulting solution will be due to water only.</em>

\therefore P_{sol}=X_w\times P_x

\therefore P_{sol}=0.912\times 55.32

P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg

guapka [62]

Answer:

measure the position every so often with a stopwatch

Explanation:

A possible method of measurement is to place a measuring tape along the path and measure the position every so often with a stopwatch, with this we can make a graph of position against time and by extrapolation find the initial velocity.

This is a method used in measurements of uniform movements of bodies
