A sled is accelerating at 2 m/s2 because it is being pushed on ice by Jenny. Tommy then jumps on the sled (he has the same mass

as the sled). What has happened to the total mass Jenny is pushing, compared to before?

Answer:

The acceleration of the total mass decreases by half (1/2)

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of sled = 2 m/s²

From Newton's second law of motion, F = ma

⇒m = F/a

F is the force applied by Jenny

This force applied by Jenny should be the same, after Tommy jumps on the sled, but the acceleration will change.

F = m₁a₁ = m₂a₂

Since m₂ = 2m₁, then we calculate a₂

m₁a₁ = 2m₁a₂

a₂ = a₁/2

Therefore,The acceleration of the total mass decreases by half.

A 3.20 g sample of a salt dissolves in 9.10 g of water to give a saturated solution at 25°C. a. What is the solubility (in g sal
muminat

Answer:

  • The solubility of the salt is 35.16 (g/100 g of water).
  • It would take 71.09 grams of water to dissolve 25 grams of salt.
  • The percentage of salt that dissolves is 52.7 %

Explanation:

<h3>a.</h3>

We know that 3.20 grams of salt in 9.10 grams of water gives us a saturated solution at 25°C. To find how many grams of salt will gives us a saturated solution in 100 grams of water at the same temperature, we can use the rule of three.

\frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water} = \frac{x \ g \ salt}{100 \ g \ water}

Working it a little this gives us :

x = 100 \ g \ water * \frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water}

x = 35.16 \ g \ salt

So, the solubility of the salt is 35.16 (g/100 g of water).

<h3>b.</h3>

Using the rule of three, we got:

\frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water} = \frac{25 \ g \ salt}{x \ g \ water}

Working it a little this gives us :

x = \frac{25 \ g \ salt}{ \frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water}}

x = 71.09 g \ water

So, it would take 71.09 grams of water to dissolve 25 grams of salt.

<h3>C.</h3>

Using the rule of three, we got that for 15.0 grams of water the salt dissolved will be:

\frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water} = \frac{x \ g \ salt}{15.0 \ g \ water}

Working it a little this gives us :

x = 15.0 \ g \ water * \frac{3.20 \g \ salt}{9.10 \ g \ water}

x = 5.27\ g \ salt

This is the salt dissolved

The percentage of salt dissolved is:

percentage \ salt \ dissolved = 100 \% * \frac{g \ salt \ dissolved}{g \ salt}

percentage \ salt \ dissolved = 100 \% * \frac{ 5.27\ g \ salt }{ 10.0 \ g \ salt}

percentage \ salt \ dissolved = 52.7 \%

If a train travels 500 kilometers from Stockholm to
o-na [289]

Hello,

Average speed is total distance divided by total time. From the problem, our total distance is given as 500 kilometers and given time is 5 hours. Therefore, the average speed is:

\displaystyle{v_\text{average}=\sum_{i=1}^n \dfrac{s_i}{t_i}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=\dfrac{500\ \text{km}}{5 \ \text{h}}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=100 \ \text{km/h}}

Therefore, the average speed is 100 km/h. Please let me know if you have any questions!
