According to the ideal gas law, a 1.074 mol sample of oxygen gas in a 1.746 L container at 267.6 K should exert a pressure of 13
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

% differ  1.72%

Explanation:

given data:

P_ideal = 13.51 atm

n = 1.074 mol

V = 1.746 L

T = 267.6 K

According to ideal gas law we have

(P+ \frac{n^2 *a}{v^2}) (V - nb) = nRT

(P+ (\frac{1.074^2 *1.360}{1.746^2})) (1.746 - 1.074*3.183*10^{-2}) = 1.074*0.0821*267.6

(P+0.514)(1.711) = 23.59

P_v = 13.276 atm

% differ = \frac{ P_I - P_v}{P_I} *100

             = \frac{13.51 - 13.27}{13.51} *100

             = 1.72%

Answer: 3.5 seconds

EXPLANATION:

Using the formula:
v = u + at
And taking the upwards direction as positive, we have the following information:

u = 35 m/s
a = -10m/s^2 (this is acceleration due to gravity)

At the top of its path, the apple will have a velocity of 0 m/s, therefore:

v = 0m/s

Once you substitute everything into the formula, you get:

0 = 35 + (-10)t

Therefore, t = 35/10 = 3.5 seconds

A satellite completes one revolution of a planet in almost exactly one hour. At the end of one hour, the satellite has traveled
topjm [15]

average velocity is vector displacement / time

time is "almost exactly one hour"

disp = -10m
