<span>Total mass = 2.75g Mass % of Mg = 1.0g x 100/2.75g = 36.36 % Mass % of O = 1.75g x 100/2.75g = 63.64 % Mol of Mg = 36.36/24 = 1.515 Mol of O = 63.64/16 = 3.977 Ratio of Mol of Mg and O in the substance = (1.515 : 3.977) x 2 = 3 : 8 The empirical formula of substance is Mg3O8</span>

Traveling at the speed of light - how long would it take, in years, to reach the top of the pile of balls? Show all calculations
marusya05 [52]

The time taken for the object to reach to top of pile is 0.012 year.

<h3>Time of motion </h3>

The time taken for the object to reach to top of pile is calculated as follows;

time of motion = distance traveled/speed

time of motion = (1.1 x 10¹⁴ x 10³ m)/(3 x 10⁸ m/s)

where;

  • speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

time of motion = 3.67 x 10⁵ sec = 0.012 year

Thus, the time taken for the object to reach to top of pile is 0.012 year.

The weight of a sack potato in india is 50kgf. will the weight increase or decrease in bhutan. why​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Assume that the sack was initially close to the sea level. Its weight will increase even though its mass stays the same.

Explanation:

The weight of an object typically refers to the size of the planet's gravitational attraction (a force) on this object. That's not the same as the mass of the object. The weight of an object at a position depends on the size of the gravitational field there; on the other hand, the mass of the object is supposed to be same regardless of the location- as long as the object stays intact.

Let g denote the strength of the gravitational field at a certain point. If the mass of an object is m, its weight at that point will be m \cdot g.

Indeed, g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} on many places of the earth. However, this value is accurate only near the sea level. The equation for universal gravitation is a more general way for finding the strength of the gravitational field at an arbitrary height. Let G denote the constant of universal gravitation, and let M denote the mass of the earth. At a distance r from the center of the earth (where

\displaystyle g \approx \frac{G \cdot M}{r^2}.

The elevation of many places in Bhutan are significantly higher than that of many places in India. Therefore, a sack of potato in Bhutan will likely be further away from the center of the earth (larger r) compared to a sack of potato in India.

Note, that in the approximation, the value of g is (approximately, because the earth isn't perfectly spherical) inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the planet. The gravitational field strength

On the other hand, the weight of an object of fixed mass is proportional to the gravitational field strength. Therefore, the same bag of potatoes will have a smaller weight at most places in Bhutan compared to most places in India.

Suggest a method for measuring the size of the colony.
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Counting the number of colonies that arise on a pour plate can calculate the concentration by multiplying the count by the volume spread on the pour plate. Direct counting methods are easy to perform and do not require highly specialized equipment, but are often slower than other methods

What are the stages of the life cycle of the sun
Jet001 [13]
The Sun is currently a main sequence star and will remain so for another 4-5 billion years. It will then expand and cool to become a red giant, after which it will shrink and heat up again to become a white dwarf. The white dwarf star will run out of nuclear fuel and slowly cool down over many billions of years.
