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

1 answer:

8 0

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

Why does an empty soda bottle float on water and a full soda bottle sank in water?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

hope will help you understand it :)

Explanation:

The difference in the amount of dissolved sweeteners leads to a difference in density. Cans of regular soda tend to be more dense than water, so they sink. Cans of diet soda are usually less dense than water, so they float.

The cheetah is considered the fastest running animal in the world. Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 21.7 m/s in 2.50 s and

viktelen [127]

Answer:

1) 64.2 mi/h

2) 3.31 seconds

3) 47.5 m

4) 5.26 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2.5 s

u = Initial velocity = 0 m/s

v = Final velocity = 21.7 m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

1) Top speed = 28.7 m/s

1 mile = 1609.344 m

$1\ m=\frac{1}{1609.344}\ miles$

1 hour = 60×60 seconds

$1\ s=\frac{1}{3600}\ hours$

$28.7\ m/s=\frac{\frac{28.7}{1609.344}}{\frac{1}{3600}}=64.2\ mi/h$

Top speed of the cheetah is 64.2 mi/h

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{21.7-0}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow a=8.68\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of the cheetah is 8.68 m/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{28.7-0}{8.68}\\\Rightarrow t=3.31\ s$

It takes a cheetah 3.31 seconds to reach its top speed.

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{28.7^2-0^2}{2\times 8.68}\\\Rightarrow s=47.5\ m$

It travels 47.5 m in that time

4) When s = 120 m

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 120=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 8.68\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{120\times 2}{8.68}}\\\Rightarrow t=5.26\ s$

The time it takes the cheetah to reach a rabbit is 120 m is 5.26 seconds
