Answer:

(a). 2

(b). 1/3

(c). 11.11

Explanation:

(a).  k= (t₍s₎-t₍o₎)/t₍o₎...............(1)

where k= retention factor,

t₍o₎=solvent time, t₍s₎= solute time.

Given t₍s₎=9.0 Minutes, t₍o₎=3.0 minutes.

∴ k= (9-3)/3

  k= 2.

(b). the fraction of time the solute spend in the mobile phase in the column is the ratio of the solvent time to the solute time. = t₍o₎/t₍s₎..........(2)

= 3/9

=1/3.

(c). K=k(Vm/Vs)................(3)

where K= partition coefficient, k= retention factor, Vm=volume of mobile phase, Vs= volume of stationary phase.

∴K = k(Vm/Vs)

k=2, and Vs=0.18Vm.

∴K = 2(Vm/0.18vm)

⇒K = 2/0.18

∴K=11.11

How to find i1, i2,i3
MrRissso [65]

to find i1, i2, and i3 we need to find the total current.

to find the total current, you need to find the total resistance

you're already given the total voltage, Vs

to find Rtotal, start from the resistors furthest from the voltage source.

R3 and R4 are in series so

Rtotal= R3+R4 = 6+3 = 9 ohms

9 ohms is now in parallel with R2 so,

Rtotal= (\frac{1}{R3+R4}) ^{-1}\\ + (\frac{1}{R2}) ^{-1})^-1= (1/18)^-1 +( 1/9)^-1 = 6 ohms

6 ohms is in series with R1 so

Rtotal=  4+6=10 ohms

itotal= (\frac{Vtotal}{Rtotal})

= 120 v/10 ohms = 12 A

i total = i1 because all the current flows through it

i1= 12A

so the current splits into i2 and i3 and the amount of current that flows through a branch depends on the total resistance in each branch.

we already calculated the resistance in the R3+R4 & R2 branch as 6 ohms

since r3 and r4 are in series, the same current will flow through them

r3+r4 = 9 ohms

r2= 18 ohms

so the current in r2 will be half that of R3 & R4 (V=IR)

using the current divider rule

Ix = Itotal * \frac{Rtotal}{Rx}

i2= 12A x (6 ohms/18 ohms)= 4 A

i3= 12A x (6 ohms/9 ohms) = 8 ohms

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change
Verdich [7]
The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

If a photon has frequency = 2.00 x 1014s-1 and the speed of light = 3.00 x 108ms-1, then what is its wavelength?
butalik [34]

Answer:

The photon has a wavelength of 1.5x10^{-6}m

Explanation:

The speed of a wave can be defined as:

v = \nu \cdot \lambda (1)

Where v is the speed, \nu is the frequency and \lambda is the wavelength.

Equation 1 can be expressed in the following way for the case of an electromagnetic wave:

c = \nu \cdot \lambda (2)              

 

Where c is the speed of light.    

Therefore, \lamba\lambda can be isolated from equation 2 to get the wavelength of the photon.

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} (3)

\lambda = \frac{3.00x10^{8}m/s}{2.00x10^{14}s^{-1}}

\lambda = 1.5x10^{-6}m

Hence, the photon has a wavelength of 1.5x10^{-6}m        

<em>Summary:  </em>

Photons are the particles that constitutes light.
