A tightrope walker more easily balances on a tightwire if his pole

B) droops.

Why?
To maintain balance, you do not need something short so you're balanced well... You need something long and droopy to maintain balance. The pole should be held by your waist and it should be light.

Hope this helps!~

A mixture of helium and argon gas is expanded from a volume of 29.0L to a volume of 82.0L, while the pressure is held constant a
finlep [7]

Answer:

322 kJ

Explanation:

The work is the energy that a force produces when realizes a displacement. So, for a gas, it occurs when it expands or when it compress.

When the gas expands it realizes work, so the work is positive, when it compress, it's suffering work, so the work is negative.

For a constant pressure, the work can be calcutated by:

W = pxΔV, where W is the work, p is the pressure, and ΔV is the volume variation. To find the work in Joules, the pressure must be in Pascal (1 atm = 101325 Pa), and the volume in m³ (1 L = 0.001 m³), so:

p = 60 atm = 6.08x10⁶ Pa

ΔV = 82.0 - 29.0 = 53 L = 0.053 m³

W = 6.08x10⁶x0.053

W = 322x10³ J

W = 322 kJ

What is the charge of a Sulfur atom if it has 17 electrons?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

-1

Explanation:

An atom contains a proton, electron and neutron as subatomic particles. The number of protons, which is the positively charged particle (+) is always equal to the number of electrons, which is the negatively charged particle (-) in A NEUTRALLY CHARGED ATOM i.e. no charge.

However, a decrease or increase in charge is dependent on the number of electrons and protons in that atom. Sulfur atom has an electron number of 16 in its neutral atom, however, when it gains one more electron to become 17, it means that the charge has become -1 because the charge = number of protons - number of electrons i.e. 16 - 17 = -1.

If a hockey player starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.1 m/s2 how long does it take him to skate 30m
OLga [1]
Hello!

<span>Let us apply the time function of space, in the uniform uniform motion (UUM)
</span>
Formula: S = S_{o} +  V_{o}* t + a* \frac{t^2}{2}

Data:
S (Final position) = 30 m
So (Initial Position) = 0 m
Vo (Initial velocity) = 0 m/s
t (time) = ? (in seconds)
a (acceleration) = 2.1 m/s²

Solving:
S = S_{o} + V_{o}* t + a* \frac{t^2}{2}
30 = 0 + 0*t + 2.1* \frac{t^2}{2}
30 =  \frac{2.1t^2}{2}
30*2 = 2.1t^2
60 = 2.1t^2
2.1t^2 = 60
t^2 =  \frac{60}{2.1}
t^2 \approx 28.5
t \approx  \sqrt{28.5}
\boxed{\boxed{t \approx 5.3\:s}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Arsenic diffusion in Si: Arsenic is diffused into a thick slice of silicon with no previous arsenic in it at 1100ºC. If the surf
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Diffusion time is 7.42 h

Solution:

As per the question:

Temperature, T = 1100^{\circ}C

Surface concentration of arsenic, C_{S} = 5.0\times 10^{18}\ atoms/cm^{3}

Surface concentration below Silicon surface, C_{x} = 1.5\times 10^{16}\ atoms/cm^{3}

D = 3.0\times 10^{- 14}\ cm^{2}/s

x = 1.2\mu m = 1.2\times 10^{- 4}\ cm

Initial concentration at t = 0, C_{o} = 0

Now, by using Flick's second eqn:

\frac{C_{S} - C_{x}}{C_{x} - C_{o}} = erf(\frac{x}{\sqrt{Dt}})

Thus by putting appropriate values:

\frac{5.0\times 10^{18} - 1.5\times 10^{16}}{5.0\times 10^{18}} = erf(\frac{1.2\times 10^{- 4}}{2\sqrt{3.0\times 10^{- 14}t}})

0.997 = erf(\frac{364.4}{\sqrt{t}})              (1)

Now,

erf(z) = 0.997

Now, from error function values tabulation:

For z = 2.0, erf(z) = 0.998

For z = 2.2, erf(z) = 0.995

Now,

With the help of linear interpolation method:

\frac{z - 2}{2.2 - 2.0} = \frac{0.997 - 0.995}{0.998 - 0.995}

z = 2.12

Now, using eqn (1) and above value:

\frac{364.4}{\sqrt{t}} = 2.12

t = (\frac{364.4}{2.12})^{2} = 26700 s

t = \frac{26700}{3600} = 7.42\ h
