During an investigation, a scientist heated 123.6 g of copper carbonate till it decomposed to form a black residue. The total ma
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

See below explanation

Explanation:

The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:

CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :

MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol

MM CuO = 79 g/mol

MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.

So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which  "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)

Eva8 [605]

When she starts out, he is (40x2.5)= 100 miles ahead of her.

She gains (65-40)= 25 miles on him every hour.

It takes her (100/25)= 4 hours to catch up to him.

A 5.0-kg box has an acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 when it is pulled by a horizontal force across a surface with μK = 0.50. Find the w
Maslowich

Answer:a) 34.5 N; b) 24.5 N; c) 10 N; d) 1J

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to used the second Newton law given by:

∑F= m*a

F-f=m*a where f is the friction force (uk*Normal), from this we have

F= m*a+f=5 Kg*2 m/s^2+0.5*5Kg*9.8 m/s^2= 34.5 N

then f=uk*N=0.5*5Kg*9.8 m/s^2= 24.5N

the net Force = (34.5-24.5)N= 10 N

Finally the work done by the net force is equal to kinetic energy change so

W=∫Force net*dr= 10 N* 0.1 m= 1J

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s
