Answers:

a) E_{Xrays}=1.19(10)^{6} kJ/mol

b) E_{AM}= 1.19(10)^{-8} kJ/mol

c) X rays have the energy to disrupt organic compounds by breaking carbon–carbon single bonds, but AM radio waves not.

Explanation:

The energy of a photon in Joules is given by the following formula:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} (1)

However, if we want to know this energy in units of J/mol, we have to use the following formula:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} NA (2)

<h2>a) Now, in the case of X rays:</h2>

E_{Xrays}=\frac{hc}{\lambda_{Xrays}} NA (3)

Where:

E_{Xrays} is the energy of X rays in Joules (J)

h=6.6260701509 (10)^{-34} J.s is the Planck constant

c=3(10)^{8}m/s is the speed of light

\lambda_{Xrays}=1(10)^{-10}m is the wavelength of X rays

NA=6.0221(10)^{23}/mol is the Avogadro's number

E_{Xrays}=\frac{(6.6260701509 (10)^{-34} J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{1(10)^{-10}m}(6.0221(10)^{23}/mol) (4)

E_{Xrays}=1.19(10)^{9}J/mol=1.19(10)^{6} kJ/mol (5) This is the energy of X rays in units of kilojoules per mole

<h2>b) For AM radio waves:</h2>

E_{AM}=\frac{hc}{\lambda_{AM}} NA (6)

Where:

E_{AM} is the energy of AM radio waves in Joules (J)

\lambda_{AM}=1(10)^{4}m is the wavelength of AM wavelength

E_{AM}=\frac{(6.6260701509 (10)^{-34} J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{1(10)^{4}m} 6.0221(10)^{23}/mol (7)

E_{AM}=1.19(10)^{-5} J/mol= 1.19(10)^{-8} kJ/mol (8) This is the energy of AM radio waves in units of kilojoules per mole

<h2>c) Which is able to disrupt carbon–carbon single bonds?</h2>

If we compare the energy of both (X rays and AM radio waves) with the energy of a carbon–carbon single bond (347 kJ/mol), we will have the following:

1.19(10)^{6} kJ/mol > 1.19(10)^{-8} kJ/mol > 347 kJ/mol

This means the energy of X rays is greater than the energy of AM radio waves and greater than the energy of carbon–carbon single bond as well:

E_{Xrays} > E_{AM} > E_{carbon}

In addition, this means X rays have the energy to disrupt organic compounds by breaking carbon–carbon single bonds, but AM radio waves not.

What is one difference between using a solar cell for electricity and using a windmill?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Solar cell generates DC

Windmill generates AC

Explanation:

Solar cell generates DC from the panel, to use this DC for electricity it has to be passed to an inverter which convert DC to AC.

Windmill generates AC from the wind blades. This type of energy can be used directly with household appliances using AC, or passed to a rectifier to convert it to DC.

A cannon is fired horizontally at 243 m/s off of a 62 meter tall, shear vertical cliff. How far in meters from the base of the c
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

The load across a 12 v battery consists of a series combination of three resistors 45 ω, 55 ω, and 35 ω. what is the total resis
zubka84 [21]
For n resistors in series, the equivalent resistance is given by the sum of the resistances:
R_{eq} = R_1 + R_2 + ... + R_n

In this problem, we have three resistors, so the equivalent resistance of the load is the sum of the resistances of the three resistors:
R_{eq}=45 \Omega + 55 \Omega + 35 \Omega =135 \Omega

Suppose we have two planets with the same mass, but the radius of the second one is twice the size of the first one. How does th
bogdanovich [222]

The free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.

Calculation:

Consider the mass of planet A to be, M

               the mass of planet B to be, Mₓ = M

               the radius of planet A to be, R₁

               the radius of planet B to be, R₂

The acceleration due to gravity on planet A's surface is given as:

g = GM/R₁²      - (1)

Similarly, the acceleration due to gravity on planet B's surface is given as:

g' = GM/R₂²                           [where, R₂ = 2R₁]

   = GM/4R₁²    -(2)

From equation 1 & 2, we get:

g/g' = GM/R₁² ÷ GM/4R₁²

g/g' = 4/1

Thus we get,

g' = 1/4 g

Therefore, the free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.
