A ball is dropped from a height of 1.20 m and hits the floor. The ball compresses and then reforms to spring upwards from the fl

oor to a height of 0.86 m. The time from the ball's first contact to when it left contact with the floor was 0.091 s. Calculate the ball's acceleration while it is in contact with the floor.

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{98 m$\cdot$s}^{-2}}

Explanation:

The formula for the velocity of the ball is

v = \sqrt{2gh}

1. Velocity at time of impact

v = -\sqrt{2 \times 9.807 \times 1.20} = -\sqrt{23.54} = -\textbf{4.85 m/s}

2. Velocity on rebound

The ball has enough upward velocity to reach a height of 0.86 m.

v = \sqrt{2 \times 9.807 \times 0.86} = \sqrt{16.87} =\textbf{4.11 m/s}

3. Acceleration

a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{4.11 - (-4.85)}{ 0.091} = \dfrac{8.96 }{0.091} =\textbf{98 m$\cdot$s}^{\mathbf{-2}}\\\\\text{The acceleration while the ball is in contact with the floor is $\large \boxed{\textbf{98 m$\cdot$s}^{\mathbf{-2}}}$}

A certain gas is present in a 10.0 LL cylinder at 4.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 8.0 atmatm the volume of
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas = V_1=10.0 L

Initial pressure of the gas = P_1=4.0 atm

Final volume of the gas = V_2=5.0 L

Final pressure of the gas = P_2=8.0 atm

This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.  

PV=k

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

P_1V_1=k_i

k_i=4.0 atm\times 10.0 L = 40.0 atm L

P_2\propto \frac{1}{V_2}

P_V_2=k_f

k_f=8.0 atm\times 5.0 L = 40.0 atm L

k_i=k_f=40.0 atm L

The gas in the cylinder is obeying Boyle's law.

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

4.4 grams of CO2 represents how many moles?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1) Moles of CO 2 = Given mass / Molecular mass of CO 2 = 4.4 / 44 = 0.1 mole. 2) Molecules of CO2 in 0.1 moles of CO2 = 0.1 x 6.023 x 10 23 = 6.023 x 10 22 molecules 3) 44 gram (molecular wt of CO 2) contains 2 moles atom of oxygen therefore 4.4 gram of CO2 will contain = 2 /44 *4.4 = 0.2 moles atom of Oxygen.

If 1000. mL of water freezes, which of the following is a reasonable approximation for the volume of the resulting ice?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

If 1000. mL of water freezes, which of the following is a reasonable approximation for the volume of the resulting ice?

Group of answer choices

1000. mL

961 mL

1040 mL

Explanation:

Ice is fewer denser than water.

The reason is the volume occupied by the same mass of ice with water is more than the volume occupied by water. Ice has more empty space within it.

Due to this reason, ice floats on water.

When 1000ml of water freezes to ice then its volume is greater than water.

Among the given options the correct answer is 1040 mL .
