Bromium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 79br, with an atomic weight of 78.918 amu, and 81br, with an atomic weight of 80.9
saul85 [17]

The two different isotopes have weights :

w1 = 78.918 amu

w2 = 80.916 amu

average weight w3 = 79.903 amu

The mixing of two components can be modeled as

let the fraction of w1 be 'x'

hence w1. x + w2.(1-x)  = w3

now this is a linear equation in 'x'. Substituting the values we get

x = 0.507

hence the percentage of Br79 = 50.7% and the percentage of BR81 = 49.3%

Each of the gears a and b has a mass of 675 g and has a radius of gyration of 40 mm, while gear c has a mass of 3. 6 kg and a ra
navik [9.2K]

9.87 seconds

The time required for this system to come to rest is equal to 9.87 seconds.

We have the following data:

Mass of gear A = 675 g to kg = 0.675 kg.

Radius of gear A = 40 mm to m = 0.04 m.

Mass of gear C = 3.6 kg.

Radius of gear C = 100 mm to m = 0.1 m.

How can I calculate the time needed?

We would need to figure out the moment of inertia for gears A and C in order to compute the time needed for this system to come to rest.

Mathematically, the following formula can be used to determine the moment of inertia for a gear:

I = mr²

Where:

m is the mass.

r is the radius.

We have, For gear A:

I = mr²

I = 0.675 × 0.04²

I = 0.675 × 0.0016

I = 1.08 × 10⁻³ kg·m².

We have, For gear C:

I = mr²

I = 3.6 × 0.1²

I = 3.6 × 0.01

I = 0.036 kg·m².

The initial angular velocity of gear C would therefore be converted as follows from rotations per minute (rpm) to radians per second (rad/s):

ωc₁ = 2000 × 2π/60

ωc₁ = 4000π/60

ωc₁ = 209.44 rad/s.

Also, the initial angular velocity of gears A and B is given by:

ωA₁ = ωB₁ = rc/rA × (ωc₁)

ωA₁ = ωB₁ = 0.15/0.06 × (209.44)

ωA₁ = ωB₁ = 2.5 × (209.44)

ωA₁ = ωB₁ = 523.60 rad/s.

Taking the moment about A, we have:

I_A·ωA₁ + rA∫F_{AC}dt - M(f)_A·t = 0

On Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

(1.08 × 10⁻³)·(523.60) + 0.06∫F_{AC}dt - 0.15t = 0

0.15t - 0.06∫F_{AC}dt = 0.56549   ----->equation 1.

Similarly, the moment about B is given by:

0.15t - 0.06∫F_{BC}dt = 0.56549    ------>equation 2.

Note: Let x = ∫F_{BC}dt + ∫F_{AC}dt

Adding eqn. 1 & eqn. 2, we have:

0.3t - 0.06x = (0.56549) × 2

0.3t - 0.06x = 1.13098  ------>equation 3.

Taking the moment about A, we have:

Ic·ωc₁ - rC∫F_{AC}dt - rC∫F_{BC}dt - Mc(f)_A·t = 0

0.036(209.44) - 0.3t - 0.15(∫F_{BC}dt + ∫F_{AC}dt) = 0

0.3t + 0.15x = 7.5398    ------->equation 4.

Solving eqn. 3 and eqn. 4 simultaneously, we have:

x = 30.5 Ns.

Time, t = 9.87 seconds.

3) A 900N mountain climber scales a 100m cliff. How much work is done by the mountain climber?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

90 kJ

Explanation:

Work = force × distance

W = (900 N) (100 m)

W = 90,000 J

W = 90 kJ

During a particular time interval, the displacement of an object is equal to zero. Must the distance traveled by this object als
Gnom [1K]

Answer: No, we can have a displacement equal to 0 while the distance traveled is different than zero.

Explanation:

Ok, let's write the definitions:

Displacement: The displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance that you moved.

So, for example, if at t = 0s, you are in your house, then you go to the store, and then you return to your house, we have:

The displacement is equal to zero, because the initial position is your house and the final position is also your house, so the displacement is zero.

But the distance traveled is not zero, because you went from you traveled the distance from your house to the store two times.

So no, we can have a displacement equal to zero, but a distance traveled different than zero.

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was added to pure water (H2O). Which most likely were the pH values of the water before and after the so
Anastaziya [24]
Before 7 after 9. A pH smaller than 7 indicates acidity with 0 being completely acidic. A pH greater than 7 shows alkalinity with 14 being completely alkaline. 7 is neutral. Since NaOH is alkaline, adding it to a neutral substance would increase the pH and it would increase from 7 to 9.
