In heavy rush-hour traffic you drive in a straight line at 12 m/s for 1.5 minutes, then you have to stop for 3.5 minutes, and fi

nally you drive at 15 m/s for another 2.5 minutes. (a) Plot the position-versus-time graph for this motion. your plot should extend from t=0 to t=7.5 minutes. (b) Use your plot from part (a) to calculate the average velocity between t=0 and t=7.5 minutes.

To develop this problem we will begin to determine the distances traveled in each of the segments using the linear motion kinematic equations. For this purpose, the distance traveled will be determined by the product between speed and time.

Part A is attached and indicates the graph of distance traveled vs time. And the calculations for development are found below. With the distance traveled and the total time it will be possible to find the average speed of the second part.

In 1.5 min the distance covered was,

d_1 = (1.5 min)(\frac{60s}{1min}) (12m/s) = 1080m

In the next 3.5min the distance covered is 0.

d_2 = 0

The distance covered for the next 2.5 min is

d_3 = (2.5 min)(\frac{60s}{1min})(15m/s)=2250m

Total distance covered is

d_T = d_1+d_2+d_3

d_T = 1080+0+2250

d_T = 3330m

For the average distance we need to use the total distance covered in the total time used. Then,

v_{Avg} = \frac{d_T}{t_T}

v_{Avg} = \frac{3330m}{7.5min (\frac{60s}{1min})}

v_{Avg} = 7.4m/s

Un recipiente contiene 224 dm3 de Ozono de masa 4.561 Kg a 51.09 grados celsius. Calcula la presión del Ozono
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Por lo tanto, la presión del ozono es:

P=0.011\: atm  

Explanation:

Podemos usar la ecuacion de los gases ideales;

PV=nRT (1)

Tenemos:

El volumen V = 224 dm³ = 224 L

La temperatura T = 51.09 C = 324.09 K

La masa es m = 4.561 kg

Lo necesitamos ahora es calvular n que es el numero de moles;

recordemos que el peso molecular del ozono M = 48 g/mol.

n=\frac{m}{M}=\frac{4.561}{48}=0.095\: mol

Finalmente, usando la ecuacion 1 despejamos la presion P

P=\frac{nRT}{V}

P=\frac{0.095*0.082*324.09}{224}  

Por lo tanto, la presion del ozono es:

P=0.011\: atm  

Espero te haya ayudado!

How can an object become charged
morpeh [17]

Answer:

An object gets charged when it's atoms lose or gain an electron to become an ion. For example: ... This means that the fur loses it's electrons to the plastic rod and both objects are now charged. The fur is positively charged because it lost electrons and the rod is negatively charged because it gained electrons

Which option best describes electromagnetic waves that have enough energy to change atoms or molecules into ions?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

B.Ionizing radiation is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ionizing radiation has sufficient energy that it can convert atoms and molecules into ions.

It has a sufficient amount of energy that it can separate tightly confined electrons from the orbit of an atom and causing that atom to become ionized.
