How are the three beams on a triple beam balance different

1 answer:

4 0

The three beams on a triple beam balance all are different. Each beam should have a differnet unit of measurement. For example, one beam may count in 100's and the other beam may count in 10's and the last beam may count in 1's.

If a car can go from 0 to 60 mi/hr in 8.0 seconds, what would be its final speed after 5.0 seconds if its starting speed were 50

tangare [24]

Answer:

87.5 mi/hr

Explanation:

Because a = Δv / Δt (a = vf - vi/ Δt), we need to find the acceleration first to know the change in velocity so we can determine the final velocity.

vf = 60 mi/hr

vi = 0 mi/hr

Δt = 8 secs

a = vf - vi/ Δt

= 60 mi/hr - 0 mi/hr/ 8 secs

= 60 mi/hr / 8 secs

= 7.5 mi/hr^2

Now that we know the acceleration of the car is 7. 5 mi/hr^2, we can substitute it in the acceleration formula to find the final velocity when the initial velocity is 50 mi/hr after 5 secs.

vi = 50 mi/ hr

Δt = 5 secs

a = 7.5 mi/ hr^2

a = vf - vi/ Δt

7.5 = vf - 50 mi/hr / 5 secs

37.5 = vf - 50

87.5 mi/ hr = vf

Propane (c3h8) is burned in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. the heat of combustion of propane is -2012 kj/mole. how

Olegator [25]

$C_{3} H_{8} + 5 O_{2} ---\ \textgreater \ 3CO_{2} +4H_{2}O (-2012 \frac{kJ}{mol} )


3 mol 10 mol


C_{3}H_{8} is /excess /reactant

because 3 mol propane require 15 mol oxygen (by reaction)

5 mol oxygen ---1 mol propane, so

10 mol oxygen ---2 mol propane

Only 2 mole propane will be burned,

so 

2012 ( kJ/mol)*2 mol =4024 KJ heat will be given off

Correct answer is number 4.
