Answer:

10 kg

Explanation:

The question is most likely asking for the mass of the bicycle.

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Mathematically:

p = m * v

Where p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

Hence, mass is:

m = p / v

From the question:

p = 25 kgm/s

v = 2.5 m/s

Mass is:

m = 25 / 2.5 = 10 kg

The mass of the bicycle is 10 kg.

In case the question requires the Kinetic energy of the bicycle, it can be gotten by using the formula

K. E = ½ * p * v

K. E. = ½ * 25 * 2.5 = 31.25 J

How many total oxygen atoms are in the compound Molybdenum (V) Dichromate?

alekssr [168]

Answer:

$1.2646\times10^{25}\ atoms$

Explanation:

-The chemical formula for Molybdenum (V) Dichromate is $Mo(Cr_2O_7)_3$

-There are 21 moles of oxygen per one mole of Molybdenum (V) Dichromate

-We apply Avogadro's constant to find the number of atoms of oxygen:

$Avogadro's \ Constant=6.022\times 10^{23} \ mol_1\\\\No\ of \ Atoms=Moles\times Avogadro's \ Constant\\\\=21\times 6.022\times 10^{23} \\\\=1.2646\times10^{25}\ atoms$

Hence, there are $1.2646\times10^{25} \ atoms$

(a) At what height above Earth’s surface is the energy required to lift a satellite to that height equal to the kinetic energy r

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy at earth surface $U_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}$

Gravitational Potential Energy at height h is $U_2=\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Energy required to lift the satellite $E_1=U_1-U_2$

$E_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Now Energy required to orbit around the earth

$E_2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{orbit}^2=\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$\Delta E=E_1-E_2$

$\Delta E=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$E_1=E_2$ (given)

$\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$\frac{1}{R_e}-\frac{3}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$h=\frac{R_e}{2}$

$h=3.19\times 10^6\ m$

(b)For greater height $E_1$ is greater than $E_2$

thus energy to lift the satellite is more than orbiting around earth

Two automobiles are 150 kilometers apart and traveling toward each other. One automobile

Vladimir79 [104]

Their relative speed is the sum of 60 and 40 or 100km/hr. They will travel the 150km in 1.5 hrs. When two object approach each other, the closing speed is just the sum of the speeds, therefore, the closing speed is your case is 100kph. So they will meet in 1.5 hours.

You send a beam of light from a material with index of refraction 1.21 into an unknown material. In order to help identify this

White raven [17]

Answer:

refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.

Explanation:

μ₁ = 1.21

incidence angle (i) = 41.9°

refraction angle (r) = 37.3°

Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material

according to snell's law of refraction.

μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r

1.21 × sin 41.9° = μ × sin 37.3°

μ = 1.33

hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33
