Answer:

Approximately \rm 90\; kJ.

Explanation:

Cathode is where reduction takes place and anode is where oxidation takes place. The potential of a electrochemical reaction (E^{\circ}(\text{cell})) is equal to

E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) = E^{\circ}(\text{cathode}) - E^{\circ}(\text{anode}).

There are two half-reactions in this question. \rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu and \rm Pb^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Pb. Either could be the cathode (while the other acts as the anode.) However, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) should be positive.

In this case, E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) is positive only if \rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu is the reaction takes place at the cathode. The net reaction would be

\rm Cu^{2+} + Pb \to Cu + Pb^{2+}.

Its cell potential would be equal to 0.339 - (-0.130) = \rm 0.469\; V.

The maximum amount of electrical energy possible (under standard conditions) is equal to the free energy of this reaction:

\Delta G^{\circ} = n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell}),

where

  • n is the number moles of electrons transferred for each mole of the reaction. In this case the value of n is 2 as in the half-reactions.
  • F is Faraday's Constant (approximately 96485.33212\; \rm C \cdot mol^{-1}.)

\begin{aligned}\Delta G^{\circ} &= n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})\cr &= 2\times 96485.33212 \times (0.339 - (-0.130)) \cr &\approx 9.0 \times 10^{4} \; \rm J \cr &= 90\; \rm kJ\end{aligned}.

valina [46]

Answer:

  • Increases levels of well-being neurotransmitters
  • Improves fitness
  • Improves mental health
  • Reduces the risk of developing diseases

Explanation:

Performing physical activities helps to build a healthy relationship with yourself, in the sense that physical activity promotes health at all levels. Health is a set of physical, mental and social well-being, so physical activity reaches all these levels and increases the quality of life for a person as a whole.

There are several types of physical activities that can be performed and you can choose the one that best fits your preferences and routine. A walk for example can be done in any safe place and at any time and it already helps in improving physical conditioning, in receiving serotonin and endorphins, in reducing blood pressure and protecting the heart and in improving mental health.

So the ideal is for each person to set their own goals in relation to their health and seek to achieve them, either to have a better quality of life, to socialize more with people, to prevent diseases, etc.

If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?

Answer:

The speed of the helicopter is u  =  7.73 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height at which he let go of the brief case is  h =  130 m  

    The  time taken before the the brief case hits the water is  t =  6 s

Generally the initial speed of the  briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is  mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as

      s = h+  u t +  0.5 gt^2

Here s  is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero

      0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>    0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>   u  =  \frac{-130 +  (0.5 * 9.8 *  6^2) }{6}

=>   u  =  7.73 \  m/s
