During complete combustion carbon and hydrogen combine with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (HO2) during that time it is not completely oxidized producing soot or carbon monoxide

Answer: incomplete supply of oxygen

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a fuel is reacted with excess supply of oxygen to result into complete oxidation of fuel to give carbon dioxide and water.

Example of complete combustion :

C+O_2 \rightarrow CO_2

Incomplete combustion happens when the supply of oxygen is limited and thus fuel can not be completely oxidized , thus forming carbon monoxide.

Example of incomplete combustion :

C+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow CO

A block and tackle is used to lift an automobile engine that weighs 1800 N. The person exerts a force of 300 N to lift the engin
Sidana [21]

Answer:

1800/300 = 6ropes

Explanation:

The engine weighs 1800N and the person exerts a force of 300N, so for him to lift the engine and exerting a force of 300N all through we divide the weight of the engine by the force exerted to know how many ropes are used. Which makes it 6 thereby each rope uses 300N to lift the engine.

How is Coulomb’s law similar to newton’s law of gravitational force? How is it different
natulia [17]

The similarities and the differences between gravitational and electric force are listed below

Explanation:

- The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by Newton's law of gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m_1, m_2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

- Coloumb's law gives instead the strength of the electrostatic force between two charged objects, which is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

By comparing the two equations, we find the following similarities:

  • Both the forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects, F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}
  • Both the forces are proportional to the product between the "main quantity" of each force, which is the mass for the gravitational force (F\propto m_1 m_2) and the charge for the electric force (F\propto q_1 q_2

Instead, we have the following differences:

  • The gravitational force is always attractive, since the sign of m is always positive, while the electric force can be either attractive or repulsive, since the sign of q can be either positive or negative
  • The value of the gravitational costant G is much smaller than the value of the Coulomb's constant, so the gravitational force is much weaker than the electric force

1600 AM broadcasts radio waves with wavelengths<br> of about 187.37 m. Convert this to miles.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The wavelength in miles is <u>0.1165 miles</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength of the radio wave is 187.37 m.

Now, the wavelength is given in meters.

We need to convert the wavelength from meters to miles.

In order to convert meters to miles, we have to use their conversion factor.

We know that,

1 meter = \frac{1}{1609}\ miles

Therefore, the conversion factor is given as:

CF=\frac{1}{1609}\ miles\ per\ meter

So, the wavelength in miles is given as:

Wavelength=\textrm{Wavelength in meters}\times CF\\\\Wavelength=187.37\ m\times \frac{\frac{1}{1609}\ miles}{1\ m}\\\\Wavelength=\frac{187.37}{1609}\ miles\\\\Wavelength=0.1165\ miles

Hence, the wavelength in miles is 0.1165 miles.
