Answer:

Kinetic theory or kinetic theory of gases attempts to explain overall properties of gases, such as pressure, temperature, or volume, by considering their molecular composition and motion. The theory basically states that pressure is not caused by molecules pushing each other away, like earlier scientists thought .

hope this helps !!!

Given parameters:

Mass on earth = 50kg

Unknown:

Mass on planet Xenon = ?

Weight on planet Xenon = ?

Mass is the amount of matter contained in a particular substance.

Weight is the force on a body and it is derived from the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Planet Xenon has half the gravitational force of Earth.

This translated gives $\frac{9.8}{2}$ = 4.9m/s²

Now, mass is always the same every where if the amount of matter in a substance does not change.

In this problem, mass = 50kg on planet xenon.

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 50 x 4.9 = 245N

The weight on Xenon is 245N and the mass is 50kg

what is the acceleration of a softball if it has a mass of 0.50kg and hits the catcher’s glove with a force of 25 N

Kitty [74]

Answer:

mass=0.50kg

force=25N

acceleration =?

Now,

force=m×a

25=0.50×a

25÷0.50=a

50=a

acceleration =50m/s^2 answer!!!!

hope this may help you!!!!

After two hours, 1/16 of the initial amount of a certain radioactive isotope remains undecayed. The half-life of the isotope is:

AlekseyPX

The half life is 30 minutes.
30 mins- 1/2 left
60 mins- 1/4 left
90 mins- 1/8 left
120 mins- 1/16 left
120 mins= 2 hours

A ray of light in glass strikes a water-glass interface at an angle of incidence equal to one-half the critical angle for that i

fomenos

Answer:

Explanation:

There will not be any internal reflection . it will be only refraction

critical angle = θ

Sinθ = 1 / μg

μg = 1.43 / 1.33 =

Sinθ = 1.33 / 1.43

= .93

θ = 68.44

angle of incidence i = 68.44 / 2

= 34.22

Sin i / Sin r = μw = 1.33 / 1.43

= .93

sin 34.22 / sinθ₁ = .93 , θ₁ is angle of refraction.

sinθ₁ = sin 34.22 / .93

= .5623 / .93

= .6047

θ₁ = 37 degree Ans
