The average distance of the earth from the sun is about 1.5 × 10^8 km. Assume that the earth’s orbit around the sun is circular

and that the sun is at the origin of your coordinate system. (a) Estimate the speed of the earth as it moves in its orbit around the sun. Express your answer in miles per hour with the appropriate number of significant figures. (b) Estimate the angle θ between the position vector of the earth now and what it will be in 4 months. (c) Calculate the distance between these two positions.

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance between sun and earth will act as radius of circular path

R = 1.5 X 10¹¹ m

angular velocity of the earth

ω = 2π / T

= 2 X 3.14 / ( 365 X 24 X 60 X 60 )

= 1.99 X 10⁻⁷ radian / s

velocity v = ω R

=  1.99 X 10⁻⁷ X 1.5 X 10¹¹

= 2.985 X 10⁴ m /s

= 29.85 km/s

29.85 x 60 x 60 km/h

= 107460 km/h

107460/1.6 mile / h

= 67162.5 mile /h

b ) Angle moved in 12 months

= 360 degree

angle moved in 4 months

= 360 / 3

= 120 degree

c )  Circumference of the orbit

= 2 x 3.14 x 1.5 x 10⁸ km

9.42 x 10⁸ km

required distance will be 1/3 rd of circumference

= 9.42 / 3 x 10⁸ km

= 3.14 x 10⁸ km

A solution is prepared by dissolving 17.75 g sulfuric acid, h2so4, in enough water to make 100.0 ml of solution. if the density
Yuliya22 [10]

The solution of Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4) has the following mole fractions:

  • mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.034
  • mole fraction (H2O)= 0.966

To solve this problem the formula and the procedure that we have to use is:

  • n = m / MW
  • = ∑ AWT
  • mole fraction = moles of A component / total moles of solution
  • ρ = m /v

Where:

  • m = mass
  • n = moles
  • MW = molecular weight
  • AWT = atomic weight
  • ρ = density
  • v = volume

Information about the problem:

  • m solute (H2SO4) = 17.75 g
  • v(solution) = 100 ml
  • ρ (solution)= 1.094 g/ml
  • AWT (H)= 1 g/mol
  • AWT (S) = 32 g/mol
  • AWT (O)= 16 g/mol
  • mole fraction(H2SO4) = ?
  • mole fraction(H2O) = ?

We calculate the moles of the H2SO4 and of the H2O from the Pm:

MW = ∑ AWT

MW (H2SO4)= AWT (H) * 2 + AWT (S) + AWT (O) * 4

MW (H2SO4)= (1 g/mol * 2) + (32,064 g/mol) + (16 g/mol * 4)

MW (H2SO4)= 2 g/mol + 32 g/mol + 64 g/mol

MW (H2SO4)=  98 g/mol

MW (H2O)= AWT (H) * 2 + AWT (O)

MW (H2O)= (1 g/mol * 2) + (16 g/mol)

MW (H2O)= 2 g/mol + 16 g/mol

MW (H2O)=  18 g/mol

Having the Pm we calculate the moles of H2SO4:

n = m / MW

n(H2SO4) = m(H2SO4) / MW (H2SO4)

n(H2SO4) = 17.75 g / 98 g/mol

n(H2SO4) = 0.1811 mol

With the density and the volume of the solution we get the mass:

ρ(solution)= m(solution) /v(solution)

m(solution) = v(solution) * ρ(solution)

m(solution) = 100 ml * 1.094 g/ml

m(solution) = 109.4 g

Having the mass of the solution we calculate the mass of the water in the solution:

m(H2O) = m(solution) - m solute (H2SO4)

m(H2O) = 109.4 g - 17.75 g

m(H2O) = 91.65 g

We calculate the moles of H2O:

n = m / MW

n(H2O) = m(H2O) / MW (H2O)

n(H2O) = 91.65 g / 18 g/mol

n(H2O) = 5.092  mol

We calculate the total moles of solution:

total moles of solution = n(H2SO4) + n(H2O)

total moles of solution = 0.1811 mol + 5.092  mol

total moles of solution = 5.2731 mol

With the moles of solution we can calculate the mole fraction of each component:

mole fraction (H2SO4)= moles of (H2SO4) / total moles of solution

mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.1811 mol / 5.2731 mol

mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.034

mole fraction (H2O)= moles of (H2O) / total moles of solution

mole fraction (H2O)= 5.092  mol / 5.2731 mol

mole fraction (H2O)= 0.966

In chemistry a solution is known as a homogeneous mixture of two or more components called:

  • Solvent
  • Solute

If the vertical component of velocity for a projectile is 7.3 meters/second, what is its hang time?
Kamila [148]
A projectile motion is characterized by motion moving in a direction of an arc. It is acted upon by two component vectors: the horizontal and vertical. These two vectors are independent of each other when it comes to time of flight. The horizontal direction travels at constant speed, while the vertical direction travels at constant acceleration due to gravity, The time for an object to reach the ground would be equal, whether dropped from the sampe point or thrown in a projectile motion. Of course, this is assuming ideality wherein there is no air resistance.

So, the hang up time, or the time the object stayed on air is calculated using this equation:

a = Δv/t
Δv is the change in velocity which is the initial velocity when it was dropped to when it reaches zero velocity when it hits the ground.
9.81 m/s² = |(0 - 7.3)|/t
t = 0.744 seconds

A gymnast of mass 63.0 kg hangs from a vertical rope attached to the ceiling. You can ignore the weight of the rope and assume t
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

A ) When gymnast is motionless , he is in equilibrium

T = mg

= 63 x 9.81

= 618.03 N

B )

When gymnast climbs up at a constant rate , he is still in equilibrium ie net force acting on it is zero as acceleration is zero.

T = mg

= 618.03 N

C ) If the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2

Net force on it = T - mg   , acting in upward direction

T - mg = m a

T =  mg + m a

= m ( g + a )

= 63 ( 9.81 + .6)

= 655.83 N

D )  If the gymnast slides down the rope with a downward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2

Net force acting in downward direction

mg - T = ma

T = m ( g - a )

= 63 x ( 9.81 - .6 )

= 580.23 N
