gravitational force is the attraction force of earth on an object which is near the surface of earth

It will not depend on the velocity or acceleration of earth

So it will not change while an object is stationary or it is moving with some acceleration

So here we will say that force will remain the same

$F = mg$

The demand for your hand-made skateboards, in weekly sales, is q = −3p + 700 if the selling price is $p. You are prepared to sup

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

you should sell your skateboards at $240

Explanation:

The price p to sell your skateboards for so that there is neither a shortage nor a surplus is the price that makes equal the quantity of sales and the quantity of supply, so p is equal to:

q (sales) = q (supply)

-3p + 700 = 2p - 500

700 + 500 = 2p + 3p

1200 = 5p

1200/5 = p

$240 = p

Calculate the separation between the two lowest levels for an O2 molecule in a one-dimensional container of length 5.0 cm. At wh

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The separation between the two lowest levels = $1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

The values of n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT at 300K = $2.2 * 10^{9}$

The separation at this level = 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J

Explanation:

Knowing the formula

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

Mass of oxygen molecule

m (O2) = 32 amu * $\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu}$

So the energy diference between the two lowest levels:

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3h^{2} }{8mL^{2} }$

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3 * (6.626 * 10^{-34} Js)^{2} } {8 * 32 amu * (\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu})* (5*10^{-2})^{2} } = 1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

Now we should find n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{2}kT$

$\frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $4.13 * 10^{-14}J$

$n^{2} * (4.13 * 10^{-14}J) = \frac{1}{2} (1.38 * 10^{-23}JK^{-1}) * 300K$

$n = 2.2 * 10^{9}$

by the end is necessary to calculate the separation of the level

En - En-1 = $(n^{2} - (n - 1)^{2}) * \frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

= 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J
