Answer:

10 gram gold is added

Explanation:

given data

pure gold = (24/24)

added = 15 grams

gold = 14 K ( 14/24)

gold = 18 K ( 18/24)

to find out

How much pure gold added

solution

we know here that when we add gold to get 20 K gold or 22K

so we added here 15 gram 14 K

we consider here m is pure gold added

so by composition here

we get

15 (14K) + m ( 24 K) = ( 15 + m ) (18) ...................1

solve it and find m

m = 10

so 10 gram gold is added

A car turns a certain curve of radius 24.98 m with constant linear speed of

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

3525.19 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of the car is shown below:

As we know that

Fc = m × V^2 ÷ R

m = Fc × R ÷ V^2

Provided that:

Fc = 34.652 kN = 34652 N

R = Radius = 24.98 m

V = speed = 15.67 m/s

So,

m = 34652 × 24.98 ÷ 15.67^2

= 3525.19 kg

A spherical shell with a net charge of 3Q surrounds a point charge of -q at the center of the shell. The charges on the inner an

aleksley [76]

Answer:

1) The charge on the outer shell is +4·Q

2) The charge on the inner shell is +Q

Explanation:

1) The given parameters of the spherical shell are;

The net charge on the spherical shell = 3·Q

The point charge surrounded by the spherical shell = -Q

Let 'x' represent the charge on the outer shell, and let 'y', represent the charge on the inner shell, we have;

The net charge, 3·Q = -q + x

∴ x = 3·Q + Q = 4·Q

The charge on the outer shell, x = 4·Q

2) The net charge in the shell is zero, therefore, the charge on the inner shell, 'y', is given as follows;

-Q + y = 0

∴ y = +Q

The charge on the inner shell, y = +Q

Use the following half-life graph to answer the following question:

Temka [501]

Answer:

A 1.0 min

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioisotope is defined as the time it takes for the mass of the isotope to halve compared to the initial value.

From the graph in the problem, we see that the initial mass of the isotope at time t=0 is

$m_0 = 50.0 g$

The half-life of the isotope is the time it takes for half the mass of the sample to decay, so it is the time t at which the mass will be halved:

$m'=\frac{50.0 g}{2}=25.0 g$

We see that this occurs at t = 1.0 min, so the half-life of the isotope is exactly 1.0 min.

A positively charged metal sphere, A, is held close to but not touching and identical uncharged sphere, sphere B. Sphere A is no

Yuri [45]

Answer:

The sphere C carries no net charge.

Explanation:

When brougth close to the charged sphere A, as charges can move freely in a conductor, a charge equal and opposite to the one on the sphere A, appears on the sphere B surface facing to the sphere A.
As sphere B must remain neutral (due to the principle of conservation of charge) an equal charge, but of opposite sign, goes to the surface also, on the opposite part of the sphere.
If sphere A is removed, a charge movement happens in the sphere B, in such a way, that no net charge remains on the surface.
If in such state, if the sphere B (assumed again uncharged completely, without any local charges on the surface), is touched by an initially uncharged sphere C, due to the conservation of charge principle, no net charge can be built on sphere C.
