Answer:

Centripetal force pulls an object toward the center of a circle. Inertia is an object's tendency to keep moving in a straight line unless acted on by an outside force. Centripetal force causes an object to constantly change direction, so the combination of centripetal force and inertia causes an object to move in a circle.

According to the law of conservation of matter, what number must be the same on each side of a chemical equation?

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

4. The number of atoms of each element

Explanation:

Why is 1 wrong?

The number of substances (i.e. number of mols of substances) do not have to be the same. For instance, 2 mol of water reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to form 2 mol of water. Obviously the numer of substances is not conserved. Thus, it isn't a requirement.

Why is 2 wrong?

The number of chemical symbols do not mean anything. They do not tell us anything about the quantity of matter, they only tell us about the elements that are involved in the reaction.

Why is 3 wrong?

Once again, the number of chemical formulas are meaningless.

Why is 4 correct?

The number of atoms are always conserved as atoms cannot be broken or created.

Possible confusion...

The number of atoms are always conserved but the number of molecules may not always be conserved.

Why? As 2 atoms may be a molecule on the reactant side and 4 atoms may become a molecule on the product size, causing the number of molecules to reduce by half, while the number of atoms remain constant.

Hope that makes sense!

Certain neutron stars (extremely dense stars) are believed to be rotating at about 10 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 18 k

Aleks [24]

Answer:

mass of the neutron star =3.45185×10^26 Kg

Explanation:

When the neutron star rotates rapidly, a material on its surface to remain in place, the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration on the central material must be equal to magnitude of the centripetal acc. of the rotating star.

That is

$\frac{GM_{ns}}{R^2}= \omega^2 R$

M_ns = mass odf the netron star.

G= gravitational constant = 6.67×10^{-11}

R= radius of the star = 18×10^3 m

ω = 10 rev/sec = 20π rads/sec

therefore,

$M_{ns}= \frac{\omega^2R^3}{G} = \frac{4\pi^2\times(18\times10^3)^3}{6.67\times10^{-11}}$

= 3.45185... E26 Kg

= 3.45185×10^26 Kg

A car with a total mass of 1800 kg (including passengers) is driving down a washboard road with bumps spaced 4.9 m apart. The ri

Drupady [299]

Answer:

k = 9.6 x 10^5 N/m or 9.6 kN/m

Explanation:

First, we need to use the expression to calculate the spring constant which is:

w² = k/m

Solving for k:

k = w²*m

To get the angular velocity:

w = 2πf

The problem is giving the linear velocity of the car which is 5.7 m/s. With this we can calculate the frequency of the car:

f = V/x

f = 5.7 / 4.9 = 1.16 Hz

Now the angular velocity:

w = 2π*1.16

w = 7.29 rad/s

Finally, solving for k:

k = (7.29)² * 1800

k = 95,659.38 N/m

In two significant figures it'll ve 9.6 kN/m
