A 1020 kg boat is traveling at 110 km/h when its engine is shut off. The magnitude of the frictional force k between boat and wa

ter is proportional to the speed v of the boat. Thus, fk = 75v, where v is in meters per second and fk is in newtons. Find the time required for the boat to slow down to 55 km/h.

Answer: 94 seconds

Explanation:

An exact solution will require calculus, since the acceleration is not constant. 

M*dV/dt = -fk = -75V dV/V = -(75/M)dt  

Since you have separated variables to opposite sides, the differential equation is easily integrated.   

Therefore,

V2/V1 = -ln2 = (-75/M)T where T is the time interval.  

Then we have that,

T= (M/75)*ln2 = (1020/75)*0.693 = 94 seconds

Elina [12.6K]

Explanation:

1) N₂ + O₂ → 2 NO

Kc = [NO]² / ([N₂] [O₂])

Set up an ICE table:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&Initial&Change&Equilibrium\\N_{2}&0.114&-x&0.114-x\\O_{2}&0.114&-x&0.114-x\\NO&0&+2x&2x\end{array}\right]$

Plug into the equilibrium equation and solve for x.

1.00×10⁻⁵ = (2x)² / ((0.114 − x) (0.114 − x))

1.00×10⁻⁵ = (2x)² / (0.114 − x)²

√(1.00×10⁻⁵) = 2x / (0.114 − x)

0.00316 = 2x / (0.114 − x)

0.00361 − 0.00316x = 2x

0.00361 = 2.00316x

x = 0.00018

The volume is 1.00 L, so the concentrations at equilibrium are:

[N₂] = 0.114 − x = 0.11382

[O₂] = 0.114 − x = 0.11382

[NO] = 2x = 0.00036

2(a) Cl₂ → 2 Cl

Kc = [Cl]² / [Cl₂]

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&Initial&Change&Equilibrium\\Cl_{2}&2.0&-x&2.0-x\\Cl&0&+2x&2x\end{array}\right]$

1.2×10⁻⁷ = (2x)² / (2 − x)

1.2×10⁻⁷ (2 − x) = 4x²

2.4×10⁻⁷ − 1.2×10⁻⁷ x = 4x²

2.4×10⁻⁷ ≈ 4x²

x² ≈ 6×10⁻⁸

x ≈ 0.000245

2x ≈ 0.00049

2(b) F₂ → 2 F

Kc = [F]² / [F₂]

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&Initial&Change&Equilibrium\\F_{2}&2.0&-x&2.0-x\\F&0&+2x&2x\end{array}\right]$

1.2×10⁻⁴ = (2x)² / (2 − x)

1.2×10⁻⁴ (2 − x) = 4x²

2.4×10⁻⁴ − 1.2×10⁻⁴ x = 4x²

2.4×10⁻⁴ ≈ 4x²

x² ≈ 6×10⁻⁵

x ≈ 0.00775

2x ≈ 0.0155

F₂ dissociates more, so Cl₂ is more stable at 1000 K.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Immediately after throwing the backpack away, twin A would be moving away from twin B at approximately $0.630\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Initially, twin B would not immediately be moving. However, after the backpack hits her, she would move away from twin A at approximately $0.526\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ if she held onto the backpack.

Explanation:

Consider this scenario in three steps:

Step one: twin A is carrying the backpack.
Step two: twin A throws the backpack away; the backpack is en route to twin B;
Step three: twin B starts to move after the backpack hits her.

Since all external forces are ignored, momentum should be conserved when changing from step one to step two, and from step two to step three.

<h3>From step one to step two</h3>

In step one, neither twin A nor the backpack is moving. Their initial momentum would be zero. That is:

$p(\text{twin A, step one}) = 0$ .
$p(\text{backpack, step one}) = 0$ .

Therefore:

$p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one}) = 0$ .

In step two, the backpack is moving towards twin B at $3.20\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ . Since the mass of the backpack is $12.0\; \rm kg$ , its momentum at that point would be:

$\begin{aligned}p(\text{backpack, step two}) &= m \cdot v \\ &= 12.0\;\rm kg \times 3.20\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} = 38.4\; \rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Momentum is conserved when twin A throws the backpack away. Hence:

$\begin{aligned}&p(\text{backpack, step two}) +p(\text{twin A, step two}) \\ &= p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one})\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$p(\text{twin A, step two}) \\ &= p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one}) - p(\text{backpack, step two}) \\ &= -38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

The mass of twin A (without the backpack) is $61.0\; \rm kg$ . Therefore, her velocity in step two would be:

$\begin{aligned} v(\text{twin A, step two}) &= \frac{p}{m} \\ &= \frac{-38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}{61.0\; \rm kg} \approx -0.630\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Note that while the velocity of the backpack is assumed to be greater than zero, the velocity of twin A here is less than zero. Since the backpack is moving towards twin B, it can be concluded that twin A is moving in the opposite direction away from twin B.

<h3>From step two to step three</h3>

In step two:

$p(\text{twin B, step two}) = 0$ since twin B is not yet moving.
$p(\text{backpack, step two}) = 38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1}$ from previous calculations.

Assume that twin B holds onto the incoming backpack. Thus, the velocity of the backpack and twin B in step three will be the same. Let $v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})$ denote that velocity.

In step three, the sum of the momentum of twin B and the backpack would thus be:

$\begin{aligned}& m(\text{twin B}) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three}) \\ &+ m(\text{backpack}) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\end{aligned}$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$(m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})$ .

Momentum is conserved when twin B receives the backpack. Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& (m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\\ =&p(\text{twin B, step two}) +p(\text{backpack, step two})\\ =& 38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\\ =&\frac{p(\text{twin B, step two}) +p(\text{backpack, step two})}{m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})}\\ =& \frac{38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1}}{61.0\; \rm kg + 12.0\; \rm kg} \approx 0.526\;\rm m\cdot s^{-1} \rm \end{aligned}$ .

In other words, if twin B holds onto the backpack, then (after doing so) she would be moving away from twin A at approximately $0.526\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .
