Answer:

6.38\cdot 10^6 m

Explanation:

The planet can be thought as a solid sphere rotating around its axis. The moment of inertia of a solid sphere rotating arount the axis is

I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2

where

M is the mass

R is the radius

For the planet in the problem, we have

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg

I=9.74\cdot 10^{37} kg\cdot m^2

Solving the equation for R, we find the radius of the planet:

R=\sqrt{\frac{5I}{2M}}=\sqrt{\frac{5(9.74\cdot 10^{37}}{2(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}}=6.38\cdot 10^6 m

At 80 degrees celsius the vapor pressure of benzene is 753 torr and that of toluene is 290 torr. What is the total pressure and
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The total pressure of the solution is 598.66 torr

while the vapor pressure of the components is vapor pressure of benzene is =502 torr and that of toluene = 96.6 tor

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to look at the known variables, the unknown variables, and then we select the appropriate relations between the known variables and the unknown

Here we have the temperature of the gases t = 80°C

the pressures of benzene = 753 torr

the pressures of toluene = 290 torr

mole fraction of benzene in solution = 2/3

mole fraction of toluene in solution = 1/3

the unknown variables = composition of the solution  and the total pressure of the solution

From here given the known variables and the required variables, the appropriate relation bstween the known and unknown variables is Route's Law

Raoult's relates the vapor pressure of a mixture of gases to the mole fraction of solute gases introduced in the  gas solution. Raoult's Law is expressed by the formula: Psolution = Χsolvent1×Psolvent1 + Χsolvent2×Psolvent2+ ... .

where. Psolution = vapor pressure of the solution and

Χsolvent1 = mole fraction of solvent 1

Psolvent1 = vapor pressure of solvent1

Thus we have by Raoult's Law

P_{solution} = X_{benzene} × P_{benzene}+ X_{toluene}×P_{toluene}

which is =2/3×753 + 1/3×290 = 502 + 96.6 = 598.66 torr

and composition vapor pressure of benzene is 502 torr

while the composition vapor pressure of toluene is 96.6 torr

Can an object contain heat? Why or why not?
Stells [14]
Every object has thermal energy (better word than heat, since we associate that with high temperatures). This is actually the molecules vibrating, moving a lot. More thermal energy means more vibrating, and thus also expanding in volume.

A spaceship moves radially away from Earth with acceleration 29.4 m/s 2 (about 3g). How much time does it take for sodium street
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

doppler shift's formula for source and receiver moving away from each other:

<em>λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)</em>

Explanation:

acceleration of spaceship=α=29.4m/s²

wavelength of sodium lamp=λ°=589nm

as the spaceship is moving away from earth so wavelength of earth should increase w.r.t increasing speed until it vanishes at λ'=700nm

using doppler shift's formula:

<em>λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)</em>

putting the values:

700nm=589nm√(1+β/1-β)

after simplifying:

<em>β=0.17</em>

by this we can say that speed at that time is: v=0.17c

to calculate velocity at an acceleration of a=29.4m/s²

we suppose that spaceship started from rest so,

<em>v=v₀+at</em>

where v₀=0

so<em> v=at</em>

as we want to calculate t so:-

<em>t=v/a</em>                                                v=0.17c      ,c=3x10⁸           ,a=29.4m/s²

putting values:

=0.17(3x10⁸m/s)/29.4m/s²

<em>t=1.73x10⁶</em>
