8 0

Answer:

11.54 ft - lb

Explanation:

F = 18 lb, x = 8 in = 8 / 12 = 0.66 ft

F = k x

k = F / x = 18 / 0.66 = 27.27 lb/ft

y = 11 in = 11 / 12 ft = 0.92 ft

Work done = 1 /2 x k x  y^2

W = 0.5 x 27.27 x 0.92 x 0.92 = 11.54 ft - lb

The synthesis of nitrogen trihydride from nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is shown by which balanced chemical equation?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Option B. N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)

Explanation:

When nitrogen react with hydrogen, they form a product as shown below:

N2+ H2 → NH3

We need to balance the equation. This is illustrated below:

There are 2 atoms of nitrogen on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. To balance it, put 2 in front of NH3 as shown below:

N2+ H2 → 2NH3

Now, There are a total of 6 atoms of Hydrogen on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side side. This can be balanced by putting 3 in front of H2 as shown below:

N2+ 3H2 → 2NH3

Now we see clearly that the equation is balanced as we have equal numbers of atoms of N and H on both sides of the equation

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Since the wire is not splitting at any point in the circuit,

the resistors are in series

Hence, Equivalent resistance = 10 + 20 + 30

Equivalent Resistance = 60 Ω

Identical isolated conducting spheres 1 and 2 have equal charges and are separated by a distance that is large compared with the
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

F = 0.1575 N

Explanation:

When the third sphere touches the first sphere, the charge is distributed between both spheres, then now the first sphere has only half of his original charge.

In this moment then

Sphere one has a charge = Q/2

Sphere three has a charge = Q/2

Now when the third sphere touches the second sphere again the charge is distributed in a manner that both sphere has the same charge.

How the total charge is Q = Q/2 + Q = 3/2Q, when the spheres are separated each one has 3/4Q

Sphere two has a charge = 3/4Q

Sphere three has a charge = 3/4Q

The electrostatic force that acts on sphere 2 due to sphere 1 is:

F = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2} }{r^{2} }

F= \frac{K(Q/2)(3Q/4)}{r^{2} }

how \frac{KQ^{2} }{r^{2} } = 0.42

Then

F = \frac{0.42*3}{8}

F = 0.1575 N

1. Two magnets are placed on a table, and they immediately move to attach to each other. Which statement is correct about the en
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: 1: kinetic energy and velocity are at zero when the magnets are held apart, and both increases rapidly when they are released and move together. Energy stored in the magnetic field decreases.

2: The energy stored in the system is converted to kinetic, thermal, and sound energy.

3: The energy stored in the magnetic field does not change.

4: Some of the energy stored is converted into kinetic and thermal energy.

5: Two small repelling magnets hold each other in place.

Just took the quiz all are correct! I hope this helps you! :)
