Why Mike the helium balloons float while the others rest on the table

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetlana [45]3 years ago

Helium is a chemical element of the atomic number 2, an inert gas that is the lightest member of the noble gas series.


These means, Helium is lighter than air, and for this is why all other balloons may not float.


The helium balloon displaces an amount of air (Just like an empty water bottle displaces an amount of water). As long as the weight of the helium plus the balloon fabric is lighter than the air displaces, the balloon will float in the air.

Una piedra es lanzada horizontalmente desde la azote de un edificio de 30 metros de altura, con una velocidad de 12 m/s. Hallar
drek231 [11]

Answer: La piedra tarda 2.47 segundos en caer al suelo, y cae a 29.64 metros de la base del edificio.

Explanation:

Ok, tenemos 2 sistemas de ecuaciones para este problema.

Primero, el vertical:

La aceleración es la aceleración gravitatoria, entonces:

a = -9.8m/s^2

para la velocidad podemos integrar sobre el tiempo y obtenemos

v = (-9.8m/s^2)*t + v0

donde v0 es la velocidad inicial, pero la velocidad inicial es solo horizontal, entonces v0 = 0.

Para la posición integramos de vuelta:

p = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + p0

donde p0 es la posición inicial, en este caso, 30m

p = (-4.9m/s^2)*t^2 + 30m

la piedra va a llegar al piso cuando la posición vertical sea igual a 0m

p = 0m =  (-4.9m/s^2)*t^2 + 30m

de aca podemos despejar el tiempo que la piedra tarda en llegar al suelo.

t = √(30/4.9) segundos = 2.47 s.

Ahora, las ecuaciones para el movimiento horizontal son:

Aceleración nula, pues no hay ninguna fuerza actuando en la dirección horizontal.

a = 0

para la velocidad, integramos sobre el tiempo:

v = 0*t + v0 = v0

donde v0 es la velocidad inicial, en este caso, es 12m/s

v = 12m/s

para la posición integramos de vuelta:

p = 12m/s*t + p0

en este caso podemos asumir que estamos inicialmente en el punto x = x0, asi que la posición inicial es p0 = x0.

p = 12m/s*t + x0

entonces, si queremos calcular la distancia entre la base del edificio y el punto donde cae la piedra, tenemos que calcular:

D = p(2.47s) - p(0s)

D = 12m/s*2.47s + x0 - (12m/s*0s + x0)

D = 29.64m

La piedra tarda 2.47 segundos en caer al suelo, y cae a 29.64 metros de la base del edificio.

you find this receipt and remember it can help you with a lock. You have 9 members in your unit. This will take care of 1 member
Stells [14]

Answer:(9x) x 6 + (8x) x= the cost to take care of one member for one day

Explanation:

the receipt takes care of one of the members for one day which is the "+ (8x)" there is no number to represent the cost, so this is all that's possible

Which would be the best to neutralize a large acid spill in your school lab: sodium hydroxide or baking soda? Explain.
nadya68 [22]

Consider the acid spill. It is already starting to do nasty things to, say, the floor or counter. So you grab the bottle of 10% NaOH and pour some on the spill. All of a sudden, you get a great deal of heat, and you don't have any visual evidence whether your put on too little or too much. But you have added more liquid to the spill, generated more heat, and will get more damage. You have made a bigger mess, and if you added too much, you then have a neutralization problem to deal with.  

And if it is something like a strong sulfuric acid solution, adding sodium hydroxide solution will be extremely exothermic, and you could get some really nasty results.  

So now approach the spill with a handful of baking soda. You sprinkle it on the spill. It fizzes, and carbon dioxide is given off. That actually, in a very tiny way, moderates the temperature of the neutralization. And you can keep adding baking soda until the fizzing stops, and then perhaps some water to mix everything well. But what you have done is kept the volume to a minimum, added a neutralization agent that has a visible endpoint (no more gas being given off), and you don't suddenly have a huge amount of highly basic solution because you added too much.  

And what is also nice about baking soda is that you can toss some with your hand or even with a spoon, and get some distance from the spill. With a liquid, you have to get much closer

i hope this helped..
