Answer:

There are two method of comparing the balls 1) using a balance  2) by  only 2 weighings.

Explanation:

There are two method of comparing the balls 1) using a balance  2) by  only 2 weighings.

Make the following groups - --- (1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8)

Step 1. compare the Weigh (1,2,3) and (4,5,6)

there are 2 possible outcomes:

1---both the group are of same weight. and named as (Case A)

2--- one of the group is heavier than other and named as  (Case B)

Step 2. Let examine both case

In Case A --in this case, now compare the weight of 7th and 8th ball. By this you have recognize the heavier ball by 2 weighing method.

In Case B -- considered the heaviest group (assume group (1,2,3) is heavy), from this group take randomly two ball and compare the their weight. out of these two ball, one  is heavy else the third ball is.

Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 7.1 g. Silver has 47 electrons
Assoli18 [71]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of electrons in given amount of silver are 1.87\times 10^{24}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

We are given:

Given mass of silver = 7.1 g

Molar mass of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of silver}=\frac{7.1g}{107.87g/mol}=0.066mol

Number of electrons in 1 atom of silver = 47

According to mole concept:

1 mole of an element contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of particles

So, 0.066 moles of silver will contain = -(0.066\times 47\times 6.022\times 10^{23})=1.87\times 10^{24} number of electrons

Hence, the number of electrons in given amount of silver are 1.87\times 10^{24}

Starting from rest, a crate of mass m is pushed up a frictionless slope of angle theta by a horizontal force of magnitude F. Use
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

v =  sqrt[2*(F*h*cot(theta)-mgh)/m]

Explanation:

Work  = KE + Ug

F*r=1/2mv^2+mgh

1/2mv^2=F*r-mgh

v=sqrt[2(F*r-mgh)/m]

r=h/tan(theta)=h*cot(theta)
