The coefficients are 8 17 1 8

remember that we have to have the same amount of atoms on each side of the equation.
start with C there is 1 on the left and 8 on the right so 8 has to be on the CO. now there is an 8 now on the water there is 1 originally and now we need 8. from water there is now a total of 16 hydrogen plus the 18 from octane for a total of 34. the left has an H2. 34/2 = 17. that is where the 17 comes from

The Sun has a mass of 1.99x10^30 kg and a radius of 6.96x10^8 m. Calculate the acceleration due to gravity, in meters per second

just olya [345]

Answer:

$g=274\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Mass of the Sun, $M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg$

The radius of the Sun, $r=6.96\times 10^8\ m$

We need to find the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun. It is given by the formula as follows :

$g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\\g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}{(6.96\times 10^8)^2}\\\\g=274\ m/s^2$

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity on the Sun is $274\ m/s^2$ .

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now here we can say

$m_1 = 10 g$

$v_{1i} = 0$

$m_2 = 550 g$

$v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s$

now here we can say

$10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}$

$192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}$

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})$

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5$

now by solving the two equation

$56v_{2f} = 189$

$v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s$

also we know that

$v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s$

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s
