After fixing a flat tire on a bicycle you give the wheel a spin. Its initial angular speed was 5.45 rad/s and it rotated 14.4 re
Komok [63]

Answer:

(a) α = -0.16 rad/s²

(b) t = 33.2 s

Explanation:

(a)

Applying 3rd equation of motion on the circular motion of the tire:

2αθ = ωf² - ωi²

where,

α = angular acceleration = ?

ωf = final angular velocity = 0 rad/s (tire finally stops)

ωi = initial angular velocity = 5.45 rad/s

θ = Angular Displacement = (14.4 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 28.8π rad

Therefore,

2(α)(28.8π rad) = (0 rad/s)² - (5.45 rad/s)²

α = -(29.7 rad²/s²)/(57.6π rad)

<u>α = -0.16 rad/s²</u>

<u>Negative sign shows deceleration</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Now, we apply 1st equation of motion:

ωf = ωi + αt

0 rad/s = 5.45 rad/s + (-0.16 rad/s²)t

t = (5.45 rad/s)/(0.16 rad/s²)

<u>t = 33.2 s</u>

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 2? mol/L What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 2? mol/L What is the rat
densk [106]

Answer:

In Step 5, you will calculate H+/OH– ratios for more extreme pH solutions. Find the concentration of H+ ions to OH– ions listed in Table B of your Student Guide for a solution at a pH = 2. Then divide the H+ concentration by the OH– concentration. Record these concentrations and ratio in Table C.

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 2?

0.01   mol/L  

What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 2?

0.000000000001   mol/L  

What is the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 2?

10,000,000,000 : 1

consider the photoelectric effect experiment. in one experiment yellow light shines on a piece of potassium metal. a current is
kompoz [17]

Explanation:

If the intensity of the yellow light increased, meaning more photons will strike the Potassium metal per unit area. This will cause more ejection of electrons from the metal and hence, the strength of current will also increase as we know that

I = Q/t, as the charge increase , the current will also increase.
