What is the mechanical advantage of a wedge that is 2 inches at its widest part and has sloped side with a length of ten inches?

Chemistry

Artist 52 [7]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Width of wedge  = 2inches

Length of sloped side  = 10inches

Unknown:

Mechanical advantage  = ?

Solution:

A wedge is a simple machine used to split devices into two. It is a simple chisel.

The input force is through the width and the output wok done is through the length of the slope.

         

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of the output force to the input force;

           M. A  = \frac{Output force}{Input force }

therefore;

              M.A  = \frac{10inches }{2 inches}  = 5

Mechanical advantage has no unit.

Which aqueous solution has the highest boiling point?a. 0.20 M NaClb. 0.10 M CaCl2c. 0.1 M Ga2(SO4)3d. 0.2 M C6H12O6
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

c. 0.1 M Ga₂(SO₄)₃

Explanation:

The boiling point increasing of a solvent due the addition of a solute follows the formula:

ΔT = K*m*i

<em>Where K is boiling point increasing constant (Depends of the solute), m is molality = molarity when solvent is water, and i is Van't Hoff factor.</em>

<em />

That means the option with the higher m*i will be the solution with the highest boiling point:

a. NaCl has i = 2 (NaCl dissociates in Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions).

m* i = 0.20*2 = 0.4

b. CaCl₂; i = 3. 3 ions.

m*i= 0.10M * 3 = 0.3

c. Ga₂(SO₄)₃ dissolves in 5 ions. i = 5

m*i = 0.10M*55 = 0.5

d. C₆H₁₂O₆ has i = 1:

m*i = 0.2M*1 = 0.2

The solution with highest boiling point is:

<h3>c. 0.1 M Ga₂(SO₄)₃</h3>

Please help me answer this question! I don’t understand it at all!

The uncertainty principle is one of the most famous (and probably misunderstood) ideas in physics. It tells us that there is a fuzziness in nature, a fundamental limit to what we can know about the behaviour of quantum particles and, therefore, the smallest scales of nature. Of these scales, the most we can hope for is to calculate probabilities for where things are and how they will behave. Unlike Isaac Newton's clockwork universe, where everything follows clear-cut laws on how to move and prediction is easy if you know the starting conditions, the uncertainty principle enshrines a level of fuzziness into quantum theory.
