The amount left of a given substance can be calculated through the equation,
                                              A = (A0) x 0.5^n/h
From the given scenario, 
                                           A/A0 = 0.75 = 0.5*(60/h)
The value of h from the equation is 144.565 minutes.

Which sentences describe disavantages of burning fossil fuels instead of using hydrogen fuel cells
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Coal and oil release sulfur dioxide gas when they burn, which causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain. Fossil fuels release carbon dioxide when they burn, which adds to the greenhouse effect and increases global warming .

A parachutist with a camera, both descending at a speed of 10.8 m/s, releases that camera at an altitude of 50 m. In this proble
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the camera is 33.11 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 10.8 m/s

Altitude = 50 m

Suppose determine the velocity of the camera just before it hits the ground?

We need to calculate the velocity of the camera

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gs

Where, v = final velocity of camera

u = initial speed of camera

s = distance

Put the value into the formula

v^2=(-10.8)^2+2\times(-9.8)\times(-50)

v=\sqrt{1096.64}

v=33.11\ m/s

The direction will be downward so it is the negative velocity.

Hence, The velocity of the camera is 33.11 m/s.

the pull of gravity on mars is 3.7m/s^2. if a astronaut on mars lifts a 10 kg rock 1 m off the ground, just to see whats under i
Elanso [62]
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula:

PE_{grav} =mgh

Where:
PEgrav = Gravitational potential energy
m= mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height

On Earth acceleration due to gravity is a constant 9.8 but since the scenario is on Mars, the pull of gravity is different. In this case, it is 3.7, so we will use that for g.

So put in what you know and solve for what you don't know. 
m = 10kg
g = 3.7m/s^2
h = 1m

So we put that in and solve it. 
PE_{grav} =mgh
PE_{grav} =(10kg)(3.7m/s^{2})(1m)
PE_{grav} =37J

A brass cube, 10 cm on a side, is raised in temperature
lana [24]

Answer:

\delta L\%=22.5\%

Explanation:

<em>Assuming that the thermal expansion of brass cube occurs isotropically (i.e. equal in all the directions).</em>

Given:

  • length of the cube, l=10\ cm=0.1\ m
  • change in temperature of the cube, \Deta T=200\^{\circ}C
  • coefficient of volume expansion, \beta=57\times 10^{-6}\ ^{\circ}C^{-1}

<u>Hence volume of the cube:</u>

V=10^{-3}\ m^3

Now the volume of the cube after expansion:

\delta V=V.\beta.\Delta T

\delta V=10^{-3}\times 57\times 10^{-6}\times 200

\delta V=1.14\times 10^{-5}\ m^3

Therefore,

\delta L=0.0225\ m

<u>Now the percentage change in the edges of the cube:</u>

\delta L\%=\frac{\delta L}{L} \times 100

\delta L\%=\frac{0.0225}{0.1} \times 100

\delta L\%=22.5\%
