A mixture of N2, H2 and He have mole fractions of 0.25, 0.65, and 0.10, respectively. What is the partial pressure of N2 if the
matrenka [14]

Answer: The partial pressure of N_2 if the total pressure of the mixture is 3.9 atm is 0.975 atm

Explanation:

According to Raoult's law, the vapor pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component multiplied by the vapor pressure of that component in the pure state.

p_A=x_A\times P_T

where, x = mole fraction of nitrogen in solution = 0.25

p_A = partial pressure  of nitrogen = ?

P_T = Total pressure = 3.9 atm

Putting in the values :

p_A=0.25\times 3.9=0.975atm

The partial pressure of N_2 is 0.975 atm

If you apply an unbalanced force to this object it will ______. Mention all that will apply: change velocity, accelerate, change
Papessa [141]

Answer:

All of them: change velocity, accelerate, change position

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration

We notice that when there is an unbalanced force on the object, F\neq 0, and therefore

a\neq 0

whcih means that the object will accelerate.

But acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, v:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

And so,

\Delta v \neq 0

which means that the object will change velocity.

If the object is changing velocity, this means that it is also moving: therefore, the position of the object must be changing, so also the option "change position" is correct.

Comets travel around the sun in elliptical orbits with large eccentricities. If a comet has speed 2.1×104 m/s when at a distance
trapecia [35]

Answer:

v_f = 6.92 x 10^(4) m/s

Explanation:

From conservation of energy,

E = (1/2)mv² - GmM/r

Where M is mass of sun

Thus,

E_i = E_f will give;

(1/2)mv_i² - GmM/(r_i) = (1/2)mv_f² - GmM/(r_f)

m will cancel out to give ;

(1/2)v_i² - GM/(r_i) = (1/2)v_f² - GM/(r_f)

Let's make v_f the subject;

v_f = √[(v_i)² + 2MG((1/r_f) - (1/r_i))]

G is Gravitational constant and has a value of 6.67 x 10^(-11) N.m²/kg²

Mass of sun is 1.9891 x 10^(30) kg

v_i = 2.1×10⁴ m/s

r_i = 2.5 × 10^(11) m

r_f = 4.9 × 10^(10) m

Plugging in all these values, we have;

v_f = √[(2.1×10⁴)² + 2(1.9891 x 10^(31)) (6.67 x 10^(-11))((1/(4.9 × 10^(10))) - (1/(2.5 × 10^(11)))] 20.408 e12

v_f = √[(441000000) + 2(1.9891 x 10^(30)) (6.67 x 10^(-11))((16.408 x 10^(-12))]

v_f = √[(441000000) + (435.38 x 10^(7))

v_f = 6.92 x 10^(4) m/s

Why do we have thunder storms
Over [174]
Thunderstorms happen when cold air sinks and hot air rises in rapid succession. There has to be an unstable body of hot air for a thunderstorm to happen. Cool air mingles with the hot air causing condensation (that means that raindrops form) This makes a cumulous cloud.
The moisture in the cloud is either positively charged or negatively charged. Negatively charged particles sink to the bottom of the cumulous cloud while positively charges particles rise. The positive and negative charges rub together and spark causing lightning.
Thunder is formed by the lightning, a bolt of lightning is hollow, and has no air inside it. When the lightning dissipates the air rushes to fill the space breaking the sound barrier in the process, this creates the boom.
