A special vehicle of length 50 m is designed to take passengers at extremely high speeds between different places on earth.

Physics

Answer:

a)

5.97\times 10^{7} ms⁻¹

b)

0.0021  sec

Explanation:

(a)

L_{o} = Actual length of the vehicle = 50 m

L = length measured by the earthbound observer = 49 m

v = speed of the vehicle

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ ms⁻¹

Length measured by the earthbound observer is given as

L = L_{o}\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

49 = 50 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

0.98 = \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

0.9604 = 1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}

0.396 = \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}

v = 5.97\times 10^{7} ms⁻¹

b)

d = distance traveled = 6000 km = 6 x 10⁶ m

t = time measured by a clock on the vehicle

t' = time measured by a clock on the earth

Time measured by a clock on the vehicle  is given as

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{6\times 10^{6}}{5.97\times 10^{7}}

t = 0.1006 sec

Time measured by a clock on the earth is given as

t = t'\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

0.1006 = t'\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{5.97\times 10^{7}}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

t' = 0.1027 sec

\Delta t = time difference

Time difference is given as

\Delta t = t' - t

\Delta t = 0.1027 - 0.1006

\Delta t = 0.0021

\Delta t = 0.0021  sec

Given the reaction: N2(g) +2O2(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g) The forward reaction is endothermic. Determine which of the following changes would
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A. I and V

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's Principle, increasing the product side will cause the equilibrium to shift back towards the reactant side, so I is true.  By the same principle, II is false.

For gases, decreasing the pressure will cause the equilibrium to shift towards the side with higher number of moles.  So V is true.

The reaction is endothermic, so increasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to the products, so IV is false.  And adding a catalyst has no effect on the equilibrium, so III is false.

A highly volatile substance has an initial mass of 1200 g and its mass is reduced by 12% each second.
Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) 1.00 - 0.12 = 0.88

m = 1200(0.88)^t

b) t = ln(m/1200) / ln(0.88)

c) m = 1200(0.88)^10 = 334.20 g

d) t = ln(10/1200) / ln(0.88) = 37.451... = 37 s

e) t = ln(1/1200) / ln(0.88) = 55.463... = 55 s

ioda

Answer:

1150 secs

distance = speed x time

time = distance / speed

230,000 / 200 = 1150
