An underground tunnel has two openings, with one opening a few meters higher than the other. If air moves past the higher openin

g at a greater speed than it moves past the lower opening, what happens inside the tunnel?

Answer:

There would be a pressure drop in the direction of the higher opening. This will force air to move in from the lower opening and force it to leave through the higher opening. This will create a convectional movement of air, cooling and ventilating the tunnel.

Explanation:

This is in accordance with bernoulli's law of fluid flow which states that the pressure exerted by a moving fluid is lesser than it would exert if it were at rest.

A_______covalent bond is when atoms of two different elements form a covalent bond.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Explanation:    Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outermost (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability.

This exercise uses the radioactive decay model. After 3 days a sample of radon-222 has decayed to 58% of its original amount. (a
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: a) 3.85 days

b) 10.54 days

Explanation:-

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = ?

t = time taken for decomposition  = 3 days

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process  = \frac{58}{100}\times 100=58g

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

k=\frac{2.303}{3}\log\frac{100}{58}

k=0.18days^{-1}

a) Half-life of radon-222:

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{0.18}=3.85days

Thus half-life of radon-222 is 3.85 days.

b) Time taken for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount:

where,

k = rate constant  = 0.18days^{-1}

t = time taken for decomposition  = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process  = \frac{15}{100}\times 100=15g

t=\frac{2.303}{0.18}\log\frac{100}{15}

t=10.54days

Thus it will take 10.54 days for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount.
