Using arrangement (a), how many rb atoms could be placed on a square surface that is 9.5 cm on a side? the diameter of a rubidiu

m atom is 4.95å. we will consider two different ways of placing the atoms on a surface. in arrangement (a), all the atoms are lined up with one another. arrangement (b) is called a close-packed arrangement because the atoms sit in the "depressions" formed by the previous row of atoms:

Part a

Answer: 3.64\times10^{16}

For the arrangement considered in part a, all the atoms are aligned side by side along the side of the square surface.

Along one side of the square, the number of atoms that could fit =\frac {length\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}side}{diameter\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}atom}=\frac{9.5\times10^{-2}m}{4.95\times10^{-10}m}=1.91\times10^8 atoms

This is along one side. On the entire surface:

Number of atoms = (1.91\times10^8 )^2=3.64\times10^{16} atoms

Part b

Answer: 4.23\times10^{16}

consider the attached figure below:

The next layer of atoms are filled in the depressions of the first layer. The vertical distance between the two atoms would change. Consider an equilateral triangle drawn by joining the centers of the three atoms.

The atoms along the horizontal side would be aligned side by side; same as above =1.91\times10^8 atoms

The number of atoms along vertical side would vary. vertical distance between two atoms can be calculate using equilateral triangle as shown below.

an equilateral triangle has all the angles = 60^o

Let the vertical distance be y.

Then, y = 2r sin60^o

where r is the radius of each atom. 2r= 4.95\times10^{-10} m

y=4.95\times10^{-10} m\times sin60^o=4.28\times10^{-10} m

The number of atoms along the vertical side = \frac{9.5\times10^{-2}m}{4.28\times10^{-10}m}=2.21\times10^8 atoms

Total number of atoms in this kind of arrangement = 1.91\times10^8\times2.21\times10^8=4.23\times10^{16} atoms

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

≈ 20.35 N [newton's of tension]

Explanation:

( (2.9 × 9.8) ÷ cos(35.6°) ) × sin (35.6°) =

( (28.42) ÷ (≈0.813) ) × (≈0.582) =

(≈34.96) × (≈0.582) = 20.3449446.... ≈ 20.35

A copper sphere was moving at 40 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Temperature increase = 2.1 [C]

Explanation:

We need to identify the initial data of the problem.

v = velocity of the copper sphere = 40 [m/s]

Cp = heat capacity = 387 [J/kg*C]

The most important data given is the fact that when the shock occurs kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, therefore it will have to be:

E_{k}=Q\\ E_{k}= kinetic energy [J]\\Q=thermal energy [J]\\Re-employment values and equalizing equations\\\\\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}=m*C_{p}*dT  \\The masses are canceled \\\\dT=\frac{v^{2}}{C_{p} *2} \\dT=2.1 [C]

Two boxes (24 kg and 62 kg) are being pushed across a horizontal frictionless surface, as the drawing shows. The 36-N pushing fo
defon

Answer:

F = 26.04 N

Explanation:

As we know that system of two boxes are moving on frictionless surface

So here if two boxes are considered as a system

then we have

F = (m_1 + m_2) a

m_1 = 24 kg

m_2 = 62 kg

F = 36 N

36 = (24 + 62) a

a = 0.42 m/s^2

Now since we know that both the boxes are moving together so force applied by first box on other box is given as

F = ma

F = (62 \times 0.42)

F = 26.04 N

The difference in particle size of the soil constituents determine its texture.​
Schach [20]

Answer:Soil texture depends on the size of individual soil particles and is determined by the relative proportions of particle sizes that make up the soil. The texture affects the amount of water that can be absorbed for use by plants and animals.
