Find the rms speed of the molecules of a sample of n2 (diatomic nitrogen) gas at a temperature of 31.5°c.

Physics

Artemon [7]3 years ago

The rms speed can be calculated using the following rule:
rms = sqrt ((3RT) / (M)) where:
R is the gas constant =  8.314 J/mol-K
T is the temperature = 31.5 + 273 = 304.5 degrees kelvin
M is the molar mass = 2*14 = 28 grams = 0.028 kg

Substitute with the givens to get the rms speed as follows:
rms speed = sqrt [(3*8.314*304.5) / (0.028)] = 520.811 m/sec

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=136.8μ m is shone at normal incidence through a thin film of thickness t resting atop a full
inn [45]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Explanation:

Given that:

The refractive index of the film = 19

The wavelength of the light = 136.8 μ m

The thickness can be calculated by using the formula shown below as:

Thickness=\frac {\lambda}{4\times n}

Where, n is the refractive index of the film

{\lambda} is the wavelength

So, thickness is:

Thickness=\frac {136.8\ \mu\ m}{4\times 19}

Thickness = 1.8 μ m

Since,

1 μ m = 10⁻⁸ Hm

So,

Thickness = 1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Describe how engineers designed a parachute to create the forces needed to slow down the falling person.
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Due to the resistance of air, a drag force acts on a falling body (parachute) to slow down its motion. Without air resistance, or drag, objects would continue to increase speed until they hit the ground. The larger the object, the greater its air resistance. Parachutes use a large canopy to increase air resistance. Also, Once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity. The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down. Sorry if not helpful.

A 86 kg human stands on the surface of Venus. The mass of Venus is 4.9 × 1024 kg and its radius is 6.1 × 106 m. Collapse questio
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

755.37 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of venus=m_1=4.9\times 10^{24}kg

Radius=r=6.1\times 10^6m

Mass of human=m_2=86 kg

We know that the gravitational force between two bodies

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G=Gravitational constant=6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2

Using the formula

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 86\times 4.9\times 10^{24}}{(6.1\times 10^6)^2}

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=755.37N

An object is placed at O ona number line. It moves 3 units to the right, then 4 units to the left, and then 6 units to
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

You have a displacement of 5 units to the right.

Explanation:

First you go three to the right which lands on the 3 mark. Then you move it 4 to the left which substracts 4, landing the object at -1. Finally you move 6 to the right, and you finish at marker 5. Since displacement is not total distance but just final distance from the start point directly to end point, it is only a displacement of 5.

What is the meaning of technology
slamgirl [31]
The exact definition of technology is: The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.

The way I would put it is that technology isn’t just electronics, smartphones, and flying cars. Technology is information that people reveal and figure out and this is why it advances. You hear all the time the “advances in technology” and it’s a term that has grown rapidly. It helps businesses to progress, it’s taught people, it’s in some ways beneficial to people’s lives. It has many meanings and really that is technology simply put.
