How to find the maximum amount of a substance that will dissolve using a graph?

soldi70 [24.7K]

Solubility indicates the maximum amount of a substance that can be dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature. Such a solution is called saturated. Divide the mass of the compound by the mass of the solvent and then multiply by 100 g to calculate the solubility in g/100g .

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is Fsail = 330 N north. The water exerts a force of Fkeel = 210 N east.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is $a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction is $\theta = 32.5 6^o$ north of east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The force exerted by the wind is $F_{sail} = (330 ) \ N \ north$

The force exerted by water is $F_{keel} = (210 ) \ N \ east$

The mass of the boat(+ crew) is $m_b = 260 \ kg$

Now Force is mathematically represented as

$F = ma$

Now the acceleration towards the north is mathematically represented as

$a_n = \frac{F_{sail}}{m_b}$

substituting values

$a_n = \frac{330 }{260}$

$a_n = 1.269 \ m/s^2$

Now the acceleration towards the east is mathematically represented as

$a_e = \frac{F_{keel}}{m_b }$

substituting values

$a_e = \frac{210}{260}$

$a_e =0.808 \ m/s^2$

The resultant acceleration is

$a_r = \sqrt{a_e^2 + a_n^2}$

substituting values

$a_r = \sqrt{(0.808)^2 + (1.269)^2}$

$a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction with reference from the north is evaluated as

Apply SOHCAHTOA

$tan \theta = \frac{a_e}{a_n}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{a_e}{a_n } ]$

substituting values

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{0.808}{1.269 } ]$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [0.636 ]$

$\theta = 32.5 6^o$

Determine the gain in the potential energy when a 8.0 kg box is raised 17.2 m.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 1376 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 8 × 10 × 17.2

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

If you increase the amount of spinach you eat, then you will increase the iron in your blood. What's the dependent variable?

Solnce55 [7]

The dependent variable is the iron in your blood because it depends on the amount of spinach you eat. The independent variable will be the amount of spinach you eat since it doesn’t depend on the iron for anything.
