Answer:

Explanation:

There seems to be a typo in the problem statement.  It says the spring stretches to a shorter length after more mass is added.  Please check the problem statement.  I'm going to do the calculations assuming that the first length should be 11.80 cm and the second length should be 12.05 cm.

Hooke's law states that the force needed to compress or extend a linear spring is:

F = kΔx, where k is the stiffness and Δx is the displacement.

When a 20g object is placed in the pan, the spring stretches to a length of 11.80 cm.  The force of the spring is counteracting the weight of both the pan and the object. Therefore:

(m + 0.020) g = k (0.1180 - 0.100)

And when another 30g object is placed in the pan, the spring stretches to a length of 12.05 cm.

(m + 0.020 + 0.030) g = k (0.1205 - 0.100)

We now have two equations and two variables.  If we divide the second equation by the first equation:

(m + 0.050) / (m + 0.020) = (0.1205 - 0.100) / (0.1180 - 0.100)

(m + 0.050) / (m + 0.020) = 0.02050 / 0.0180

0.0180 (m + 0.050) = 0.02050 (m + 0.020)

0.0180 m + 0.0009 = 0.02050 m + 0.00041

0.00049 = 0.0025 m

m = 0.196

The pan has a mass of 0.196 kg, or 196 g.

a plane is flying due east in still air at 395 km/h. suddenly, the plane is hit by wind blowing at 55km/h toward the west. what
Sphinxa [80]
Let's be clear:  The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.

Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.

After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.

A flexible balloon contains 0.400 molmol of an unknown polyatomic gas. Initially the balloon containing the gas has a volume of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Mass released = 8.6 g

Given data:

Initial number of moles nitrogen= 0.950 mol

Initial volume = 25.5 L

Final mass of nitrogen released  = ?

Final volume = 17.3 L

Formula:

V₁/n₁  = V₂/n₂

25.5 L / 0.950 mol = 17.3 L/n₂

n₂ =  17.3 L× 0.950 mol/25.5 L

n₂ = 16.435 L.mol /25.5 L

n₂ = 0.644 mol

Initial mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.950 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 26.6 g

Final mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.644 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 18.0 g

Mass released = initial mass - final mass

Mass released = 26.6 g - 18.0 g

Mass released = 8.6 g
