Answer:

88.89kg

Explanation:

The formula for mass is m=F/a. If we plug in the values, we get m=400N/4.5m/s^2. The mass is 88.89kg. We know that the unit is in kg because one newton (N) is 1kg*m/s^2. The m/s^2 is cancelled out by the acceleration, and we are left with kg.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=0.154kg

Explanation:

(x*L)+(0.5kg*4200*50)+(x*4200*(-50)=0

(x*333 000J/kg*c)+(0.5kg*4200J/kg*C*(-40C))+(x*4200J/kg*C*50C)=0

A 5 μF capacitor is connected to a 12 V battery. The charge on each plate of the capacitor is:

ziro4ka [17]

1 farad = 1 coulomb/volt

5 μF = 5 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb/volt

= 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb / 12 volts

The charge is 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulombs = 6 x 10⁻⁵ (choice-A)

The internuclear distance between two closest Ar atoms in solid argon is about 3.8 A. The polarizability of argon is 1.66e-30 m3

oee [108]

Answer:

83.72 K

Explanation:

$\alpha$ = Polarizability of argon = $1.66\times 10^{-30}\ m^3$

I = First ionization = 1521 kJ/mol

r = Distance between atoms = 3.8 A

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T = Boiling point

Potential energy due to dispersion of gas is given by

$P=-\frac{3}{4}\frac{\alpha^2I}{r^6}\\\Rightarrow P=-\frac{3}{4}\frac{(1.66\times 10^{-30})^2\times 1521\times 10^3}{(3.8\times 10^{-10})^6}\\\Rightarrow P=-1044.01\ J/mol$

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\frac{3}{2}RT$

The potential and kinetic energy will balance each other

$P=\frac{3}{2}RT\\\Rightarrow 1.04401\times 10^{-33}=\frac{3}{2}RT\\\Rightarrow T=\frac{1044.01\times 2}{3\times 8.314}\\\Rightarrow T=83.72\ K$

The boiling point of argon is 83.72 K
