He should measure the speed of the reaction without platinum and with platinum and compare the difference (with a known quantity of platinum) and if the speed is indeed faster and there is no  other factor involved, then that should verify it.

inysia [295]

Answer:

d = 0 [m]

Explanation:

Displacement is understood as the length and direction that a body travels to move from an initial point to an endpoint.

This displacement is represented with a vector or straight line that indicates the distance of the displacement and its length.

This displacement in an easier way to understand. It is the distance between the start point and the endpoint of the journey. Since the second point is equal to the first point, since Mary returns to the same place, there is no difference between the displacement.

Therefore the displacement is zero.

A truck travels 1430 m uphill along a road that makes a constant angle of 5.76◦ with the horizontal.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The horizontal component of displacement is d' = 1422.7 m

Explanation:

Given data,

The distance covered by the truck, d = 1430 m

The angle formed with the horizontal, Ф = 5.76°

The displacement is a vector quantity.

The horizontal component of displacement is given by,

                                 d' = d cos Ф

                                     = 1430 cos 5.76°

                                     = 1422.7 m

Hence, the horizontal component of displacement is d' = 1422.7 m

suppose the same amount of heat is applied to two bars. they have the same mass, but experience different changes in temperature
Andreyy89

If both bars are made of a good conductor, then their specific heat capacities must be different. If both are metals, specific heat capacities of different metals can vary by quite a bit, eg, both are in kJ/kgK, Potassium is 0.13, and Lithium is very high at 3.57 - both of these are quite good conductors.

If one of the bars is a good conductor and the other is a good insulator, then, after the surface application of heat, the temperatures at the surfaces are almost bound to be different. This is because the heat will be rapidly conducted into the body of the conducting bar, soon achieving a constant temperature throughout the bar. Whereas, with the insulator, the heat will tend to stay where it's put, heating the bar considerably over that area. As the heat slowly conducts into the bar, it will also start to cool from its surface, because it's so hot, and even if it has the same heat capacity as the other bar, which might be possible, it will eventually reach a lower, steady temperature throughout.

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.37 L at 2.80×102 K and 1.15 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.68 L and
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

p_2 = 1.76 atm

Explanation:

given data:

v_1 = 2.37 L

v_2 = 1.68 L

p_1 =1.15 atm

p_2 = ?

t_1 = 280 K

t_2 = 304 K

from Gas Law Equation

, WE HAVE

\frac{p_1 v_1}{t_1} =\frac{p_2 v_2}{t_2}

Putting the values

\frac{1.15*2.37}{280}  =\frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3} = \frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3}*304 = p_2*1.68

\frac{9.733*10^{-3}*304}{1.68} =p_2

p_2= 1.76 atm
