Answer:

The original or accepted value for the percent by mass of water in a hydrate = 36%

Percen by mass of water in the hydrate determined by the student

in the laboratory = 37.8%

So the difference between the actual and the percent by mass in water determined by student = (37.8 - 36.0)%

            = 1.8%

So the percentage of error made by the student = (1.8/36) * 100 percent

                                                                            = (18/360) * 100 percent

                                                                            = ( 1/20) * 100 percent

                                                                             = 5 percent

So the student makes an error of 5%. Option "1" is the correct option.

Sound exits a diffraction horn loudspeaker through a rectangular opening like a small doorway. Such a loudspeaker is mounted out
blondinia [14]

Answer:

\theta = 20.98 degree

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the sound is given as

v = 332 + 0.6 t

now at t = 273 k = 0 degree

v = 332 m/s

so we have

a sin\theta = N\lambda

a sin\theta = N(\frac{v_1}{f})

now when temperature is changed to 313 K we have

t = 313 - 273 = 40 degree

now we have

v = 332 + (0.6)(40)

v_2 = 356 m/s

a sin\theta' = N(\frac{v_2}{f})

now from two equations we have

\frac{sin19.5}{sin\theta} = \frac{332}{356}

so we have

sin\theta = 0.358

\theta = 20.98 degree

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. In 1.00 s, it rotates 21.0 rad. Du
ELEN [110]

With constant angular acceleration \alpha, the disk achieves an angular velocity \omega at time t according to

\omega=\alpha t

and angular displacement \theta according to

\theta=\dfrac12\alpha t^2

a. So after 1.00 s, having rotated 21.0 rad, it must have undergone an acceleration of

21.0\,\mathrm{rad}=\dfrac12\alpha(1.00\,\mathrm s)^2\implies\alpha=42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}

b. Under constant acceleration, the average angular velocity is equivalent to

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2

where \omega_f and \omega_i are the final and initial angular velocities, respectively. Then

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\left(42.0\frac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1.00\,\mathrm s)}2=42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

c. After 1.00 s, the disk has instantaneous angular velocity

\omega=\left(42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1.00\,\mathrm s)=42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

d. During the next 1.00 s, the disk will start moving with the angular velocity \omega_0 equal to the one found in part (c). Ignoring the 21.0 rad it had rotated in the first 1.00 s interval, the disk will rotate by angle \theta according to

\theta=\omega_0t+\dfrac12\alpha t^2

which would be equal to

\theta=\left(42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}\right)(1.00\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(42.0\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1.00\,\mathrm s)^2=63.0\,\mathrm{rad}

A closed circuit is formed by a solid conductor in contact with two parallel conducting rails that are closed on their left end,
castortr0y [4]

this is an equation that you need to solve for motional emf. motional emf=vBL, where v is velocity in meters/second, B is magnetic field in Teslas and L is length or distance the rails are apart from each other. when we plug everything into the formula given above, we get: motional emf=5m/s*0.80T*0.20m. solving all this we get 0.8 volts. pretty sure that since they are giving you the direction of the field, they want to know which way the current will flow . since the conductor is moving from left to right the area of the field is increasing which means magnetic flux is increasing as Ф(magnetic flux)=B(magnetic field)*A(area)*cosФ(little phi is the angle to the normal. in this case little fee is 0 degrees so the cosФ doesn't matter). so ↑Ф=B↑A. if magnetic flux is increasing, the induced magnetic field is in the opposite direction as the original magnetic field meaning the induced magnetic field will be out of the page. using the right hand rule which says that if the field is in to the page, the current should go clockwise and if the field is out of the page, the current is counterclockwise so that means that the current should be going counter clockwise since the induced field is going out of the screen. the top of the conducting wire will have its current go to the left and the bottom of the conducting wire will have the current go to the right.

Which atomic number is the threshold value below which fusion may occur?
Luda [366]

Answer:

The atomic number 26(iron) is the threshold value below which the fusion might occur.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

Energy released in a fusion reaction is because of a key feature of nuclear matter called the binding energy which is a measure of the efficiency with which its constituent nucleons are bound together.

As we go up in atomic number, the energy released per nuclei goes down until it hits a minimum which is for atomic number 26 (iron) and fusion is not possible.
