During an autopsy and subsequent toxicology reports, it is discovered that a man died from arsenic poisoning. When investigating

the crime scene, a bottle of Gatorade was discovered next to the dead body. What type of lab technique will need to be performed first to see if there is any arsenic mixed in with the Gatorade?

Spectrophotometry is a laboratory technique that can be performed first to check if there is presence of arsenic mixed in with Gatorade. In spectrophotometry, arsenic concentration will be measure in a specific solution by calculating the amount of light absorbed by inorganic arsenic.

Various analytical reagents are used such as molybdate reagent and variamine blue as a chromogenic reagent where a violet colored indicates presence of arsenic. 

Furthermore, new analytical reagents has been development and proposed like vanillin-2- amino nicotinic acid (VANA) and 2, 4-Dihydroxy benzophenone-2-amino thiophenol (BPBT). These are used for direct non-extractive spectrophotometric determination of arsenic. The reagent reacts with arsenic in acidic medium to form light greenish yellow colored.

One isotope of a metallic element has the mass number 65 and 35 neutrons in the nucleus. the cation derived from the isotope has
Lina20 [59]
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of the numbers of protons and the numbers of the neutron. Given that the mass number is 65 and the number of neutrons is 35, the number of protons is 30. The atom is then Zinc (Zn). The charge is equal to +2, as it lacks 2 more electrons.

A rocket ship is accelerating at 200 m/s2, its mas is 135,000,000 kg. What is the force generated by this acceleration?
Rina8888 [55]

Acceleration does NOT "generate" force.  Acceleration NEEDS force to make it happen.  Without force ... provided by something else ... acceleration can't happen.

The force NEEDED to accelerate a mass with a certain acceleration is

Force needed = (mass) times (acceleration)

For the rocket ship in the question,

Force = (135,000,000 kg) times (200 m/s²)

Force = (135,000,000 x 200) kg-m/s²

<em>Force = 27 Giga-Newtons  </em>(27,000,000,000 Newtons)


The gas-generator cycle F-1 rocket engine, developed in the US by Rocketdyne in the late 1950s, was used in the Saturn V rocket, the main launch vehicle of NASA's Apollo moon lander program .  Five F-1 engines were used in the first stage of each Saturn V.  

==> The thrust of each F-1 engine at full throttle is 7,770 kilo-Newtons.  

It would take <em>3,475 </em>of these F-1 rocket engines, running full-throttle, to provide the force calculated in the answer to this question.  If you didn't have 3,475 F-1 rocket engines, then you couldn't accelerate 135,000,000 kg at 200 m/s².

(And by the way ... the mass of each F-1 engine is 8,400 kg.  So 3,475 engines alone account for 22% of the mass you're trying to accelerate.  And don't even get me started about the mass of the FUEL you'd need to carry.)

Amy swims 500 m (0.5 Km) in 6 minutes (0.1 hour). What was her speed in Kilometers per hour? A. 8.3 Km/hr B. 5 Km/hr C. 50 Km/hr
kondor19780726 [428]
Speed = Distance ÷ Time so divide .5 km by .1h. .5 km÷.1h=5 km/h, so the answer is B. 5km/h.

A 1.40-kg ball tied to a string fixed to the ceiling is pulled to one side by a force F→ . where L = 1.40 kg. What is the tensio
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

T=13.72N

Explanation:

The tension before the ball is released have no angle is in rest at the same axis of the weight so:

∑F=0

Using Newton law in this case the ball is tied so tension before become to swing is

∑F=FN-T=0

T=F_{N}

T=m*g

T=1.40Kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}

T=13.72N
