Antoine Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity when he was studying

X- rays.  

He had been studying phosphorescent uranium ores and hypothesized that they might absorb sunlight and reemit it as X-rays.

His hypothesis was wrong, but his experiments led to the discovery of <em>natural radioactivity</em>.

A waste treatment pond is 50 m long and 25 m wide, and has an average depth of 2 m. The density of the waste is 75.3lbm/ft^3 .Ca
umka21 [38]

Answer:

W = 6.65 \cdot 10^{6} lbf

Explanation:

To find the weight (W) of the pond contents first we need to use the following equation:

W = m\cdot g   (1)

Where m the mass and g is the gravity  

Also, we have that the mass is:

m = \rho*V  (2)    

Where ρ is the density and V the volume

We cand calculate the volume as follows:

V = L*w*d   (3)

Where L is the length, w is the wide and d is the depth  

By entering equation (2) and (3) into (1) we have:

W = \rho*L*w*d*g

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2}  

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*\frac{(1 ft)^{3}}{(0.3048 m)^{3}}*\frac{0.454 kg}{1 lbm}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2} = 2.96 \cdot 10^{7} N}*\frac{0.2248 lbf}{1 N} = 6.65\cdot 10^{6} lbf              

Therefore, the weight of the pond is 6.65x10⁶ lbf.

I hope it helps you!

Of the below gases, which would deviate most from ideal gas behavior? CO O2 NH3 SF4
Vlad [161]

Answer:

For gases such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, or neon, deviations from the ideal gas law are less than 0.1 percent at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Other gases, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia, have stronger intermolecular forces and consequently greater deviation from ideality.
