A substance that Connor be broken down into simplersubstance by ordinary chemical means

Suppose that a block of mass 2 kg is pulled to the right with a force of 10 N, and the friction force on the block is directed t

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The block has an acceleration of $3 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

$\sum F_{r} = ma$ (1)

Where $\sum F_{r}$ represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

$F_{x} + F{y} = ma$ (2)

The forces present in x are $F = 10 N$ and $f = 4 N$ (the friction force):

$F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N$

Notice that $f$ subtracts to $F$ since it is at the opposite direction.

$F_{x} = 6 N$

The forces present in y balance each other:

$F_{y} = 0$

Therefore:

$6 + 0 = ma$

$6 N = (2kg)a$ (3)

But $1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2}$ and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

$a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}$

$a = 3 m/s^{2}$

So the block has an acceleration of $a = 3 m/s^{2}$ .

when the particles of the medium move back and forth along the direction of the wave motion, the wave is a

Bezzdna [24]

Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.

Explain why frog will not look green under the red light?

IrinaVladis [17]

A frog can be many different colours. It appears green under normal 'white' light because it absorbs all the other colours in the light's spectrum apart from green. It reflects the green light back and that is picked up by your eye.

If the light is red, there is no green in the spectrum of the light, only red. So, the red light will be absorbed and there is no green to be reflected back for you to see. Therefore, the frog will not look green.

Starburst galaxies:

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

are often associated with a galaxy that is colliding with another galaxy.

Explanation:

A starburst galaxy is a galaxy that undergoes very fast formation of stars. The rate at which stars are born is 100 times more than 3 solar masses per year of the Milky Way. The starburst is stage of the formation of a galaxy. After this stage is complete the stars will have used almost all the gas in it. As the star formation rate is very fast the difference between the age of the stars and the galaxy itself is very less. The star formation is triggered by mergers and tidal interactions between gas-rich galaxies.

A vat of nitrogen at its boiling point (-196 degrees C) absorbs 384000 J of heat. How much mass of nitrogen burns off? (Unit = k

masya89 [10]

Answer:

1.92 kg of nitrogen.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Heat absorbed (Q) = 384000 J

Note: Heat of vaporisation (ΔHv) of nitrogen = 5600 J/mol

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of nitrogen that absorbed 384000 J.

This is illustrated below:

Q = mol·ΔHv

384000 = mole of N2 x 5600

Divide both side by 5600

Mole of N2 = 384000/5600

Mole of N2 = 68.57 moles

Next, we shall convert 68.57 moles of nitrogen, N2 to grams.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of N2 = 2 x 14 = 28 g/mol.

Mole of N2 = 68.57 moles.

Mass of N2 =..?

Mole = mass /molar mass

68.57 = mass of N2 /28

Cross multiply

Mass of N2 = 68.57 x 28

Mass of N2 = 1919.96 g

Finally, we shall convert 1919.96 g to kilograms.

This can be achieved as shown below:

1000g = 1 kg

Therefore,

1919.96 g = 1919.96/1000 = 1.92 kg.

Therefore, 1.92 kg of nitrogen were burned off.
