How does inertia affect the motion of an object?
Furkat [3]

<u>Inertia affects the motion of an object as follows:</u>

When an object is in motion, it will continue to be in the same state unless otherwise some outside force is being applied to it. Thus, inertia affects the motion of an object. It restricts some other force being acted upon the object.

But mass of an object is directly proportional to inertia. So when the inertia is more on an object, it means that the object has more mass. For example, if there are two similar bricks, one that is made up of mortar and the other one is made of Styrofoam.

To identify which brick is made of Styrofoam without lifting the bricks, push both the bricks with equal force, the one that has less resistance tends to move faster. This means that it has less inertia and hence less mass.

Coulomb's Law

Given:

F = 3.0 x 10^-3 Newton

d = 6.0 x 10^2 meters

Q1 = 3.3x 10^-8 Coulombs

k = 9.0 x 10^9 Newton*m^2/Coulombs^2

Required:

Q2 =?

Formula:

F = k • Q1 • Q2 / d²

Solution:

So, to solve for Q2

 

Q2 = F • d²/ k • Q1

Q2 = (3.0 x 10^-3 Newton) • (6.0 x 10^2 m)² / (9.0 x 10^9 Newton*m²/Coulombs²) • (3.3x 10^-8 Coulombs)

Q2 = (3.0 x 10^-3 Newton) • (360 000 m²) / (297 Newton*m²/Coulombs)

Q2 = 1080 Newton*m²/ (297 Newton*m²/Coulombs)

Then, take the reciprocal of the denominator and start multiplying

Q2 = 1080 • 1 Coulombs/297

Q2 = 1080 Coulombs / 297

Q2 = 3.63636363636 Coulombs

Q2 = 3.64 Coulumbs

Which of the following is/are ALWAYS true concerning collision and transition state theory?
Scrat [10]

Answer:

1) Transition states are short-lived

Explanation:

Transition state theory explains the rates of elementary chemical reactions. It assumes a quasi-equilibrium between reactants and activated transition state complexes.

The following are the characteristics of transition states

  • Instability
  • Ill-defined
  • High energy
  • short-lived

The species that must collide for the reaction to occur are shown by the mechanism of reaction and not the balanced reaction itself

Intermediates are consumed in each step of the overall reaction, they are not short lived

Compare green and orange light from the visible spectrum. You are currently in a labeling module. Turn off browse mode or quick
77julia77 [94]

Green: nm 495–570. Yellow: nm 570–590. 590–620 nm for orange. Red: 620-750 nm (400–484 THz frequency)

Solids' molecules are strongly attracted to one another. As a result, the molecules are barely moving and tightly packed. Because of this, shape and volume are fixed.

The forces of attraction and repulsion in liquids are comparable. Compared to the solid state, they move a little bit more. They then assume the shape of the container while still having a fixed capacity.

The attraction forces between the molecules in gases are quite weak. They move quite freely and grow in an effort to fill as much space as they can. Consequently, their volume and shape vary (adopt the shape of the container).
