What type of energy has caused the fewest deaths per unit of energy produced?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: Nuclear energy is by far the safest energy source in this comparison – it results in more than 442 times fewer deaths than the 'dirtiest' forms of coal; 330 times fewer than coal; 250 times less than oil; and 38 times fewer than gas.

When a 10 mL graduated cylinder is filled to the 10 mL mark, the mass of the water was measured to be 9.925 g. If the density of

Vlada [557]

Measured volume = 10 ml
mass = 9.925 g
density = 0.9975 g/ml
density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$
so actual volume = $\frac{mass}{density}$ = $\frac{9.925}{0.9975}$ = 9.95 mL
Percentage Error = $\frac{measured volume - Actual volume}{actual volume}$ x 100
= $\frac{10 - 9.95}{9.95}$ x 100 = 0.5 % error

Suppose that a certain biologically important reaction is quite slow at physiological temperature (37 oC) in the absence of a ca

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

30 kJ

Explanation:

Arrhenius equation is given by:

$k=Aexp(-Ea/RT)\\$

Here, k is rate constant, A is Pre-exponential factor, Ea is activation energy and T is temperature.

taking natural log of both side

ln k = ln A - Ea/RT

In Arrhenius equation, A, R and T are constant.

Therefore,

$ln\frac{k_2}{k_1} =\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}$

$Ea_1-Ea_2$ is the lowering in activation energy by enzyme,

R = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = 37°C + 273.15 = 310 K

$\frac{k_2}{k_1} =1\times 10^5$

$ln 1\times 10^5 =\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}\\{Ea_1-Ea_2} = 11.512 \times 8.314 \times 310\\=29670\ J\\=30\ kJ$

12.<br> An object with a mass of 3 kg has a momentum of 75 kg•m/s. What is the velocity?

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

the velocity is 25 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity is shown below:

As we know that

Magnitude of Momentum = (mass) × (speed)

75 kg. m/s = 3 kg × speed

So, the speed is

= 75 ÷ 3

= 25 m/s

hence, the velocity is 25 m/s
