You place a 0.17 kg can of soup and a 0.31 kg jar of pickles on the kitchen counter, separated by a distance of 0.42 m. What is

tangare [24]

$1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { is the force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles. }$

<u>Explanation</u>:

According to Newton's third law that each force has an equal and opposite reaction force in this case both of the jars will exert the same force an each other

. The force is given by

$\mathrm{F}=\frac{G \times M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where, F = force, $G=\text { gravitational constant }=\left(6.67 \times 10^{-11}\right)$ , $mass \left(\mathrm{M}_{1}\right)=0.17 \mathrm{kg}$ , $mass \left M_{2}= 0.31 \mathrm{kg}$ and Distance(r) = 0.42 m.

Substitute the values in the formula.

$\mathrm{F}=\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 0.17 \times 0.31}{0.42^{2}}$

$\mathrm{F}=\frac{3.51 \times 10^{-12}}{0.176}$

$\mathrm{F}=1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N}$

$\text { The force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles is } 1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { . }$

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

S = 27500J / 308.15molK

Explanation:

Entropy measures the degree of disorganization of a system. It is measured in the entropy change that is equal to the heat exchanged divided by the temperature at which the process occurs.

S2-S1 = Q / T

S = entropy

Q = heat = 27.5 kJ / mol * 1000J / 1KJ = 27500J / mol

T = temperature = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15K

units = J / molK

S = 27500J / 308.15molK

In a candy factory, the nutty chocolate bars contain 20.0 % pecans by mass. If 4.0 kg of pecans were used for candy last Tuesday

ladessa [460]

Answer:

44.09 pounds

Explanation:

We got that 20 % of the mass of a nutty chocolate bar its pecans, if 4.0 kg of pecans were used, we need to find the X in the equation

$0.2 * X = 4.0 \ kg$

where X its the total mass of nutty chocolate bars produced. So, we can just divide by 0.2 on both sides, and we find:

$X = 4.0 kg / 0.2$

$X = 20.0 \ kg$

Of course, we need the total mass produced in pounds, and not in kilograms. Looking at an conversion table, we can find that 1 kg its 2.20462 pounds, multiplying the value for total mass produced by the conversion factor we get:

$X = 20.0 \ kg * 2.20462 \ \frac{pounds}{kg}$

$X = 44.0924 \ pounds$

Now, we just need to round off to two significant figures. This is:

$X = 44.09 \ pounds$ ,

the total mass of nutty chocolate bars made last Tuesday to two significant figures.
