Answer:

2.45 m/s

Explanation:

kinetic energy = 1/2 * m * v^2

then, 0.5 * 2500 * x^2 = 0.5 * 67 * 15^2

by solving for x, X = 2.45 m/s

A researcher studying the nutritional value of a new candy places a 4.60 g sample of the candy inside a bomb calorimeter and com

blagie [28]

Answer:

4500.5 nutritional calories per gram

Explanation:

Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter.

Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = c×ΔT

where c = heat capacity of the calorimeter = 32.20 KJ/K = 32200 J/K

ΔT = change in temperature = 2.69°C = 2.69 K.

Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 32200 × 2.69 = 86618 J

Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 86618 J = 20702.2 calories

4.60 g of the new candy lost this amount of calories by undergoing combustion,

The amount of calories per g = 20702.2 calories/4.6 g = 4500.5 calories per gram

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is $I_3 =41.31 W/m^2$

Explanation:

According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity $I_0$ is mathematically represented as

$I = I_0cos^2 \theta$

Now considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

$I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n$

Where n is the number of polarizers

Substituting $60.0W/m^2$ for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

$I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3$

$=41.31 W/m^2$

To balance a chemical equation we use______. -coefficients -subscripts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products.
