<span>1.) A train is accelerating at a rate = a = 2.0 km/hr/s. </span>

<span>Acceleration </span>

<span>Initial velocity = u = 20 km/hr, </span>

xConsider the following reduction potentials: Cu2+ + 2e– Cu E° = 0.339 V Pb2+ + 2e– Pb E° = –0.130 V For a galvanic cell employi
slega [8]

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}.

What is the acceleration of a dog that runs from 3 m/s to 6 m/s over a distance of 90m?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

solution given:

acceleration (a)=?

initial velocity (u)=3m/s

final velocity (v)=6m/s

distance (s)=90m

we have

v²=u²+2as

substituting value

6²=3²+2*a*90

36=9+180a

36-9=180a

a=25/180

<u>a=0.1388m/s²</u>

You are holding one end of an elastic cord that is fastened to a wall 3.0 m away. You begin shaking the end of the cord at 2.3 H
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Time take to fill the standing wave to the entire length of the string is 1.3 sec.

Explanation:

Given :

The length of the one end x= 3m, frequency of the wave f = 2.3 Hz, wavelength of the wave λ = 1 m.

Standing wave is the example of the transverse wave, standing wave doesn't transfer energy in a medium.

We know,

∴ v = fλ

Where v = speed of the standing wave.

also, ∴ v=\frac{x}{t}

where t = time take to fill entire length of the string.

Compare above both equation,

⇒   t = \frac{3}{2.3} sec

     t = 1.3sec

Therefore, the time taken to fill entire length 0f the string is 1.3 sec.
