Kinetic energy is energy that an object possesses because of its

1 answer:

4 0

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy. If an object has kinetic energy, then it is moving. Many students confuse kinetic energy with potential energy.

Mature elephants consume an average of 600 pounds of food per day. If an elephant

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$

Explanation:

1. Calculate the adult life

If the elephant is an adult from its 10th birthday until the day before its 56th birthday, its

Adult life = 55 - 10 + 1 = 46 yr

2. Convert years to days

$\text{Adult life} = \text{46 yr} \times \dfrac{\text{365.25 da}}{\text{1 yr}} = \text{16 800 da}$

3. Convert days to pounds of feed

$\text{Feed} = \text{16 800 da} \times \dfrac{\text{600 lb}}{\text{1 da}} = 1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb}$

4. Convert pounds to kilograms and megagrams

$\text{Feed} =1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{2.20 lb}} =\textbf{4 600 000 kg} = \textbf{4600 Mg}\\\\\text{The elephant will eat $\large \boxed{\textbf{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$ of food.}$

Note: The answer can have only two significant figures because that is all you gave for age of the elephant.

A student has a 2.19 L bottle that contains a mixture of O 2 , N 2 , and CO 2 with a total pressure of 5.57 bar at 298 K . She k

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of oxygen gas is 2.76 bar

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 5.57 bar

V = Volume of the gas = 2.19 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 298 K

R = Gas constant = $0.0831\text{ L bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = Total number of moles = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$5.57bar\times 2.19L=n\times 0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{5.57\times 2.19}{0.0831\times 298}=0.493mol$

To calculate the mole fraction of carbon dioxide, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{A}=p_T\times \chi_{A}$ ........(1)

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = 0.318 bar

$p_T$ = total pressure = 5.57 bar

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of carbon dioxide = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.318bar=5.57bar\times \chi_{CO_2}\\\\\chi_{CO_2}=\frac{0.381}{5.57}=0.0571$

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$

We are given:

Moles of nitrogen gas = 0.221 moles

Mole fraction of nitrogen gas, $\chi_{N_2}=\frac{0.221}{0.493}=0.448$

Calculating the partial pressure of oxygen gas by using equation 1, we get:

Mole fraction of oxygen gas = (1 - 0.0571 - 0.448) = 0.4949

Total pressure of the system = 5.57 bar

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$p_{O_2}=5.57bar\times 0.4949\\\\p_{O_2}=2.76bar$

Hence, the partial pressure of oxygen gas is 2.76 bar
