Explain how a theodolite works.

Physics

Oksana_A [137]2 years ago
5 0
The theodolite is a precision measuring device used to measure horizontal and vertical angles. It works with a combination of: (1) optical plummets, which is used to ensure that it is placed exactly vertical above; (2) internal spirit, which ensures that it is levelled to the horizon; and (3) graduated circles, one vertical and one horizontal, which is used to measure actual angles. The mounted telescope can swivel horizontally and vertically. If this is adjusted correctly, accurate measurements can be obtained.

The car is accelerating at 3 m/s² in the positive direction (to the right). By Newton's second law, the net force on the car in this direction is

∑ F = F[a] - F[f] - F[air] = ma

3100 N - 200 N - F[air] = (650 kg) (3 m/s²)

Solve for F[air] :

F[air] = 3100 N - 200 N - (650 kg) (3 m/s²)

F[air] = 3100 N - 200 N - 1950 N

F[air] = 950 N

During an investigation, a scientist heated 123.6 g of copper carbonate till it decomposed to form a black residue. The total ma
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

See below explanation

Explanation:

The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:

CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :

MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol

MM CuO = 79 g/mol

MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.

So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which  "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)
