3 0

Answer: 3m/s2

Explanation:

Force =24 N

Mass = 8kg

Acceleration =?

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Acceleration = Force /Mass = 24/8 = 3m/s2

How much energy is lost to condense 300. grams of steam at 100.C?

True [87]

Energy lost to condense = 803.4 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Condensation of steam through 2 stages:

1. phase change(steam to water)

2. cool down(100 to 0 C)

1. phase change(condensation)

Lv==latent heat of vaporization for water=2260 J/g

$\tt Q=300\times 2260=678000~J$

2. cool down

c=specific heat for water=4.18 J/g C

$\tt Q=300\times 4.18\times (100-0)=125400$

Total heat =

$\tt 678000+125400=803400~J$

What is the molarity of a nitric acid solution if 43.13 mL 0.1000 M KOH solution is needed to neutralize 30.00 mL of the acid so

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.144M

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

HNO3 + KOH —> KNO3 + H20

From the equation,

nA = 1

nB = 1

From the question given, we obtained the following:

Ma =?

Va = 30.00mL

Mb = 0.1000M

Vb = 43.13 mL

MaVa / MbVb = nA/nB

Ma x 30 / 0.1 x 43.13 = 1

Cross multiply to express in linear form

Ma x 30 = 0.1 x 43.13

Divide both side by 30

Ma = (0.1 x 43.13) /30 = 0.144M

The molarity of the nitric acid is 0.144M

Answer:

a rapidly flowing river discharges into the ocean where tidal currents are weak.

Explanation:

The force of the river pushing fresh water out to sea rather than tidal currents transporting seawater upstream determines the water circulation in these estuaries.

Elena held a rock weighing 1 N in her hand. The rock has no velocity. <br> KE________?

nignag [31]

KE = 0

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Energy is the ability to do work

Energy because its motion is expressed as Kinetic energy (KE) which can be formulated as:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2}}}$

So for two objects that have the same speed, the greater the mass of the object, the greater the kinetic energy

The stone in hand is in a motionless state (at rest) so that its velocity (v) = 0, so it has no kinetic energy

But this stone can have <em>potential energy that is gained due to its height</em>
