The escape velocity from the Moon is much smaller than that from the Earth, only 2.38 km/s. At what temperature would hydrogen m

olecules (molar mass is equal to 2.016 g/mol) have a root-mean-square velocity vrms equal to the Moon’s escape velocity?

Answer:

457.8394 K

Explanation:

v_e = Escape velocity = 2.38 km/s

T = Temperature

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

M = Molar mass = 2.016 g/mol

The rms velocity of a molecule is given by

v_r=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}\\\Rightarrow v_r^2=\frac{3RT}{M}\\\Rightarrow T=\frac{v_r^2M}{3R}

Here, v_r=v_e=2.38\ km/s

T=\frac{v_e^2M}{3R}\\\Rightarrow T=\frac{(2.38\times 10^3)^2\times 2.016\times 10^{-3}}{3\times 8.314}\\\Rightarrow T=457.8394\ K

The temperature of the hydrogen molecule would be 457.8394 K

tino4ka555 [31]

Given:

k = 100 lb/ft, m = 1 lb / (32.2 ft/s) = 0.03106 slugs 

Solution:


F = -kx 
mx" = -kx 
x" + (k/m)x = 0 

characteristic equation: 
r^2 + k/m = 0 
r = i*sqrt(k/m) 

x = Asin(sqrt(k/m)t) + Bcos(sqrt(k/m)t) 

ω = sqrt(k/m) 
2π/T = sqrt(k/m) 
T = 2π*sqrt(m/k) 
T = 2π*sqrt(0.03106 slugs / 100 lb/ft) 
T = 0.1107 s (period) 

x(0) = 1/12 ft = 0.08333 ft 
x'(0) = 0 

1/12 = Asin(0) + Bcos(0) 
B = 1/12 = 0.08333 ft 

x' = Aω*cos(ωt) - Bω*sin(ωt) 
0 = Aω*cos(0) - (1/12)ω*sin(0) 
0 = Aω 
A = 0 

So B would be the amplitude. Therefore, the equation of motion would be x = 0.08333*cos[(2π/0.1107)t]

Lena [83]

Answer:

4. Personnel policies and programs

Explanation:

The Health care organizations that apply for Magnet status must demonstrate new ways of doing things and innovations in professional practice.

Personnel policies and programs is one of the forces of magnetism that impacts the structural empowerment of the organization.

The Personnel policies of an organization should provide an innovative environment in which the staff are developed and empowered. Empirical quality outcomes are reviewed by assessing the quality of care. New knowledge, innovations, and improvements are reviewed by assessing the quality improvement of the health care organization. Interdisciplinary relationships are assessed to review exemplary professional practice.
