The answer would be 1200m/s
Elenna [48]3 years ago

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the bullet was 3.5m per sec because on a frictionless surface a bullet can't be stopped as there is no force opposing the bullet and as the bullet must be fired in certain velocity, we can say that the initial velocity of the bullet was 3.5mper sec.

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

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

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

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

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

a large sphere is on a horizontal field on a sunny day. at a certain time the shadow reaches out a distance of 10 m from the poi
Mars2501 [29]

The radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

Think about the angle the ground and the shadow make. Since the sun's beams are parallel, the angle created by the stick's shadow is also equal. Since the stick is 1 m high and its shadow is 2 m long, we know that the stick's angle is arctan 1/2. Therefore, by thinking of a right-angled triangle,

r/10 = tan [arctan(1/2)] = tan (1/2)

Since, tan (θ/2) = 1-cos(θ) / sin(θ)

we find that,

r/10 = \sqrt{5} -2

Hence, r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

So, the radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

What is the difference between a partial and total lunar eclipse?
storchak [24]

Answer:

During a total lunar eclipse, the moon and sun are on the exact opposite sides of the Earth, leaving the moon entirely in the Earth's shadow. During a partial lunar eclipse, only part of the moon is in the Earth's shadow.
