, and ball b is thrown horizontally off the bridge. which ball hits the ground first?
a. ball a
b. ball b
c. both balls hit at the same time.
d. we would need to know the speed.

I think that ball a hit the ground because it says that it went straight down.

Cocaine, which is derived from the coca leaf, is grown mostly in Colombia and its neighboring countries while heroin, which is d

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Because of the location, humidity and temperatures.

Explanation:

Coca is grown in humid and very humid subtropical forests, called yungas and

they form the lower floor of the upper Jungle, in the Central Andes, mostly in Peru and Bolivia. The yungas are in contact with the rainforests of the lowlands in Amazonia, where it has been started to expand coca cultivation recently (Dourojeanni, 1988). The optimum altitude is 1000 a 2000 meters (where cocaine content is higher), with optimal annual average precipitation, is 2000 meters mm, but it is grown between 700 and 2000 msnm and with an average annual rainfall of 1000 to 4200 mm.

msnm = meters above sea level

Calculate the final temperature of a mixture of 0.350 kg of ice initially at 218°C and 237 g of water initially at 100.0°C.

kramer

Answer:

115 ⁰C

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> The heat needed to melt the solid at its melting point will come from the warmer water sample. This implies

$q_{1} +q_{2} =-q_{3}$ -----eqution 1

where,

$q_{1}$ is the heat absorbed by the solid at 0⁰C

$q_{2}$ is the heat absorbed by the liquid at 0⁰C

$q_{3}$ the heat lost by the warmer water sample

Important equations to be used in solving this problem

$q=m *c*\delta {T}$ , where -----equation 2

q is heat absorbed/lost

m is mass of the sample

c is specific heat of water, = 4.18 J/0⁰C

$\delta {T}$ is change in temperature

Again,

$q=n*\delta {_f_u_s}$ -------equation 3

where,

q is heat absorbed

n is the number of moles of water

tex]\delta {_f_u_s}[/tex] is the molar heat of fusion of water, = 6.01 kJ/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> calculate how many moles of water you have in the 100.0-g sample

$=237g *\frac{1 mole H_{2} O}{18g} = 13.167 moles of H_{2}O$

<u>Step 3: </u>calculate how much heat is needed to allow the sample to go from solid at 218⁰C to liquid at 0⁰C

$q_{1} = 13.167 moles *6.01\frac{KJ}{mole} = 79.13KJ$

This means that equation (1) becomes

79.13 KJ + $q_{2} = -q_{3}$

<u>Step 4:</u> calculate the final temperature of the water

$79.13KJ+M_{sample} *C*\delta {T_{sample}} =-M_{water} *C*\delta {T_{water}$

Substitute in the values; we will have,

$79.13KJ + 237*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-218}) = -350*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-100})$

79.13 kJ + 990.66J* $(T_{f}-218})$ = -1463J* $(T_{f}-100})$

Convert the joules to kilo-joules to get

79.13 kJ + 0.99066KJ* $(T_{f}-218})$ = -1.463KJ* $(T_{f}-100})$

$79.13 + 0.99066T_{f} -215.96388= -1.463T_{f}+146.3$

collect like terms,

2.45366 $T_{f}$ = 283.133

∴ $T_{f} =$ = 115.4 ⁰C

Approximately the final temperature of the mixture is 115 ⁰C

Calculate the wavelength of a photon having 3.26 x 10^-19 joules of energy

bekas [8.4K]

The energy of a photon is given by:
$E=hf$
where h is the Planck constant and f is the photon frequency.
We know the energy of the photon, $E=3.26 \cdot 10^{-19} J$ , so we can rearrange the equation to calculate the frequency of the photon:
$f= \frac{E}{h}= \frac{3.26 \cdot 10^{-19}J}{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}Js}=4.94 \cdot 10^{14}Hz$

And now we can use the following relationship between frequency f, wavelength $\lambda$ and speed of light c to find the wavelength of the photon:
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.94 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=6.07\cdot 10^{-7} m=607 nm$
