A scallop forces open its shell with an elastic material called abductin whose elastic modulus is about 2.5× 10% N/m2 . If this

piece of abductin is 3.0 mm thick and has a cross sectional area of 0.50 cm2 , how much potential energy does it store when compressed 1.0 mm?

Answer:

U= 4.1×10^{-3} J

Explanation:

Given:

Young's modulus E= 2.5×10^5 N/m^2

thickness of material L_o =3.0 mm

Area A= 0.50 cm^2

ΔL= 1.0 cm

The potential energy is given by

U= 1/2FΔx

F = \frac{EA}{Lo}\Delta L

therefore

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{EA}{Lo}\Delta L^2

now putting values we get

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{2.5\times10^5\times0.5\times10^{-4}}{3\times10^{-3}}\Delta (1\times10^{-3})^2

U= 4.1×10^{-3} J

The second-order decomposition of hi has a rate constant of 1.80 x 10−3 m−1 s−1. How much hi remains after 45.6 s if the initial
zlopas [31]

Answer:

2.9 M

Explanation:

The concentration-time equation for a second order reaction is:

1/[A] = kt + 1/[A°]

Where,

A = concentration remaining at time, t

A° = initial concentration

k = rate constant

1/[A] = (1.80 x 10^-3) * (45.6) + 1/3.81

1/[A] = 0.345

= 1/0.345

= 2.9 M.

What generalization can be made about energy?
HACTEHA [7]
Well, energy can be produced from the burning of fossil fuels which produce steam to spin turbines which generates electricity. But fossil fuels like coal and oil are no renewable.
Some renewable ways to get energy is water where they separate hydrogen from h2o because hydrogen can be made into energy. Also nuclear fission is another way to get energy. That's when in a nuclear power plant, the atoms nucleus is split which sends a large amount of energy.
Wind energy is another source of energy, which is from windmills. Another renewable energy source is solar energy. That's when u use solar cells, like some houses and calculators have, which generates a lot of energy, but only in the day since the sun doesn't shine in the nigh.


Hope I helped!!!
