Let us use the formula for Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Net force = Mass*Acceleration
Net force = Applied Force - μ*Normal Force
where μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

Normal Force = Force due to gravity = mass*gravity
Normal Force = (210 kg)(9.81 m/s²) =<em> 2,060.1 N</em>

Then,
Net force = 4100 - 0.38*2060.1 = 3317.162 N

3317.162 N = (210 kg)(a)
Solving for acceleration,
<em>a = 15.796 m/s²</em>

A 230-km-long high-voltage transmission line 2.0 cm in diameter carries a steady current of 1,100 A. If the conductor is copper
Molodets [167]

Answer:

28.23 years

Explanation:

I = 1100 A

L = 230 km = 230, 000 m

diameter = 2 cm

radius, r = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Area, A = 3.14 x 0.01 x 0.01 = 3.14 x 10^-4 m^2

n = 8.5 x 10^28 per cubic metre

Use the relation

I = n e A vd

vd = I / n e A

vd = 1100 / (8.5 x 10^28 x 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.14 x 10^-4)

vd = 2.58 x 10^-4 m/s

Let time taken is t.

Distance = velocity x time

t = distance / velocity = L / vd

t = 230000 / (2.58 x 10^-4) = 8.91 x 10^8 second

t = 28.23 years

Assume a reaction takes 7.5 moles of anhydrous calcium chloride and energy transfer occurs, which we record as 21.2 joules of en
OLga [1]

Answer: 2.83 J/mol

Explanation:

Heat of solution, sometimes interchangeably called enthalpy of solution, is said to be the energy released or absorbed when the solute dissolves in the solvent. A solute is that which can dissolve in a solvent, to form a solution

Given

No of moles of CaCl = 7.5 mol

Total energy used = 21.2 J

Heat of solution = q/n where

q = total energy

n = number of moles

Heat of solution = 21.2 / 7.5

Heat of solution = 2.83 J/mol
