Answer:

A. polymerization

Explanation:

Synthetic plastics are made by linking many simple carbon molecules together to form much larger molecules. This process is called polymerization.

Synthetic or artifical giant molecules consists of synthetic polymers such as plastics, elastomers etc. They are made up of simple monomers which links to form the complex and giant structure.

Monomers are the simplest unit of polymers. Polymers have very great sizes. The size mkaes their structure quite complex. This makes the molecules more disposed in a regular pattern with respect to one another.

The complexity of structure and the attendant effects accounts for the properties and uses that makes synthetic molecules very unique. For example, plastics can be extruded as sheets, pipes and or moulded into other objects.

How heat is conducted along a metal bar?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

If one end of a metal bar is heated, the atoms at that end vibrate more than the atoms at the cold end. The vibration spreads along the bar from atom to atom.

Explanation:

The spread of heat in this way is called conduction. Metals are good conductors of heat.

You just calibrated a constant volume gas thermometer. The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 286.0 kPa when the ther
diamong [38]

Answer:

T_{2} = 606.69 K

Explanation:

In that the gas thermometer is a constant volume, it is satisfied that:

\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }  

How the boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure, then

T_{1} = 373 .15 K

Thus

\frac{286000}{373.15} = \frac{465000}{T_{2} }

T_{2} = 606.69 K

What force is required to accelerate a body with a mass of 15 kilograms at a rate of 8 m/s²?
mihalych1998 [28]

Newton's Second law of motion: 

                  Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                  Force = (15kg) x (8m/s²) = 120 kg-m/s² = 120 newtons

A mass weighing 24 pounds, attached to the end of a spring, stretches it 4 inches. Initially, the mass is released from rest fro
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The equation of motion is x(t)=-\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}

Explanation:

Lets calculate

The weight attached to the spring is 24 pounds

Acceleration due to gravity is 32ft/s^2

Assume x , is spring stretched length is ,4 inches

Converting the length inches into feet x=\frac{4}{12} =\frac{1}{3}feet

The weight (W=mg) is balanced by restoring force ks at equilibrium position

mg=kx

W=kx ⇒ k=\frac{W}{x}

The spring constant , k=\frac{24}{1/3}

                            = 72

If the mass is displaced from its equilibrium position by an amount x, then the differential equation is

    m\frac{d^2x}{dt} +kx=0

    \frac{3}{4} \frac{d^2x}{dt} +72x=0

  \frac{d^2x}{dt} +96x=0

Auxiliary equation is, m^2+96=0

                                 m=\sqrt{-96}

                               =\frac{+}{} i4\sqrt{6}

Thus , the solution is x(t)=c_1cos4\sqrt{6t}+c_2sin4\sqrt{6t}

                                 x'(t)=-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6t}+c_2  4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6t}

The mass is released from the rest x'(0) = 0

                    =-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6(0)}+c_2 4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6(0)} =0

                                                    c_2 4\sqrt{6} =0

                                     c_2=0

Therefore , x(t)=c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6t}

Since , the mass is released from the rest from 4 inches

                    x(0)= -4 inches

c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6(0)} =-\frac{4}{12} feet

   c_1=-\frac{1}{3} feet

Therefore , the equation of motion is  -\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}
