When we look at a blue recycle bin, we see blue because...

1 answer:

6 0

When light hits an object, that object absorbs some light, and reflects other light. A blue recycle bin absorbs red and green light, but reflects blue light. The blue light then hits your retina at the back of your eye and a signal is sent to the visual cortex of your brain. Your brain then perceives this signal as <em>colour.</em>

Calculate the ph of the solution that results following addition of 24 ml of 1.0 mnaoh to 60 ml of 1.0 mnh4cl.

Lostsunrise [7]

The pH of the solution is 0.37.

<h3>What is the pH of the solution?</h3>

We can write the equation of the reaction as;

$NH4Cl (aq) + NaOH (aq) ------- > NH3 (aq) + H2O (l) + NaCl (aq)$

Number of moles of $NaOH$ = 24/1000 * 1 = 0.024 moles

Number of moles of $NH4Cl$ = 60/1000 * 1 = 0.060 moles

Given that the reaction is 1:1, the limiting reactant is NaOH

Number of moles of NH4Cl left over = 0.060 - 0.024 = 0.036 moles

Concentration of left over NH4Cl = 0.036 moles/(24 + 60)/1000

= 0.43 moles

pH = -log(0.43)

pH = 0.37

Melvin is traveling south on I-95 at 29 m/s (65 mph) when a deer jumps into his path, 50 m ahead. a. If his reaction time is 0.1

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

a. 5.22 meters

b. 2.9 seconds

c. No, Melvin does not hit the deer

Explanation:

The parameters with which Melvin is travelling are as follows;

The speed of Melvin's motion, u = 29 m/s

The distance from Melvin at which the deer jumps into the path = 50 m

a. Distance, d = Velocity, u × Time, t

The time it takes Melvin to react = 0.18 seconds

The distance, "d₁" Melvin travels before his foot hits the break = The velocity with which Melvin was traveling, "u" × The time duration it takes Melvin to hit the brakes, "t₁"

∴ d₁ = 29 m/s × 0.18 s = 5.22 m

The distance, Melvin travels before his foot hits the break = d₁ = 5.22 m

b. Melvin's acceleration after his foot hits the brakes, a = -10 m/s²

Therefore, we have;

The time it takes "t₂" it takes for him to come to a complete stop given as follows;

y = u + a × t₂

Where;

v = The final velocity after Melvin comes to a complete stop = 0 m/s

By substituting the known values, we have;

0 = 29 m/s + (-10 m/s²) × t₂ = 29 m/s - 10 m/s² × t₂

∴ 29 m/s = 10 m/s² × t₂

t₂ = (29 m/s)/(10 m/s²) = 2.9 s

The time it takes it takes for him to come to a complete stop = t₂ = 2.9 s

c. The distance, "d₂", Melvin reaches while accelerating (decelerating) at -10 m/s² to come to a complete stop is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·d₂

Therefore, we have;

0² = (29 m/s)² + 2 × (-10 m/s) × d₂ = (29 m/s)² - 2 × 10 m/s × d₂

∴ (29 m/s)² = 2 × 10 m/s × d₂

d₂ = ((29 m/s)²)/(2 × 10 m/s²) = (841 m²/s²)/(20 m/s²) = 42.05 m

The distance, Melvin reaches while accelerating (decelerating) at -10 m/s² to come to a complete stop = d₂ = 42.05 m

Given that d₂ = 42.05 m < 50 m (The distance separating Melvin's initial location and the deer, Melvin does not hit the deer.

An α-particle has a charge of +2e and a mass of 6.64 × 10-27 kg. It is accelerated from rest through a potential difference that

zzz [600]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on alpha particle=q=2 e= $2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

1 e= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Mass of alpha particle=m= $6.64\times 10^{-27} kg$

Potential difference,V= $1.97\times 10^6 V$

Magnetic field,B=3.49 T

a.Speed of alpha particle=v= $\sqrt{\frac{2 qV}{m}}$

By using the formula

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.97\times 10^6}{6.64\times 10^{-27}}$

$v=1.38\times 10^7 m/s$

b.Magnetic force,F $=qvB=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.38\times 10^7\times 3.49=1.5\times 10^{-11} N$

F= $1.5\times 10^{-11} N$

c.Radius of circular path, r= $\frac{mv^2}{F}$

$r= \frac{6.64\times 10^{-27}\times (1.38\times 10^7)^2}{1.5\times 10^{-11}}$

r=0.084 m

grin007 [14]

Answer:

The system's Mean Time to Failure is 1,041. $\bar 6$ hours

Explanation:

The number of independent identical motors = 4

The failure rate of each motor, λ = 0.002 failures per hour

Given that in order for the system to work, at least one of the motors must operate, therefore, the system are in parallel

The Mean Time to Failure for a parallel system of four identical components is given as follows;

$MTTF = \dfrac{1 }{\lambda} \times \left (1 + \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{4} \right)$

Which gives;

$MTTF = \dfrac{1 }{0.002} \times \left (1 + \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{4} \right) = 1,041.\bar 6$

The system's Mean Time to Failure = 1,041. $\bar 6$ hours.
