Answer:
the molecular formula for the gas is NO₂
Explanation:
since it contains
Nitrogen = n → 30.45%
Oxygen = o → 69.55%
and 30.45%+69.55% = 100% , then the gas only contains nitrogen and oxygen
Also we know that the proportion of oxygen over nitrogen is
proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = moles of oxygen / moles of nitrogen
since
moles = mass / molecular weight
then for a sample of 100 gr of the unknown gas
mass of oxygen = 69.55%*100 gr = 69.55 gr
mass of Nitrogen = 30.45%*100 gr = 30.45 gr
proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = (mass of oxygen/ molecular weight)/(mass of nitrogen / molecular weight of nitrogen ) = (69.55 gr/ 16 gr/mol) /( 30.45 gr /14 gr/mol) = 1.998 mol of O/ mol of N≈ 2 mol of O/ mol of N
therefore there are 2 atoms of oxygen per atom of nitrogen
thus the molecular formula for the gas is:
NO₂
The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf is false. The kinetic energy on the shelf is zero because it is not in action.
I think you almost got it.
At the top, the velocity only has horizontal component, so v=12 m/s is v_x, which is v*cos(theta), because v_x is constant, so the same when it was launched or now.
With the value of the initial speed (28 m/s, which is the total speed), you can set
v_x = v * cos( theta ) ---> 12 = 28*cos(theta) --> cos(theta)=12/28=3/7
or theta = 64.62 deg, it is D. Think about it. I hope you see it.
