What is the answer to this question?

A basketball player jumps straight up to dunk a basketball. The basketball player's speed increases as she returns to the

katen-ka-za [31]

Options :

The upward force is greater than the downward force.

The downward force is greater than the upward force.

The rightward force is greater than the leftward force.

The leftward force is greater than the rightward force.

Answer:

The downward force is greater than the upward force.

Explanation:

When the player jumps to dunk a basket ball, it requires an upward force exerted on the person due to the push by the person to jump, after dunking the basket ball, the player attains maximum height, where his final velocity becomes zero and his direction changes (from upward to downward), at this point his velocity increases due to the additional force exerted on the player due to the Earth's Gravitational pull - which is a downward force which acts on an object).

Hence, it could be concluded that the increase in speed of the basketball player as she returns to the ground means that the downward force is greater than the upward force acting on the player.

So, a gas, and an

valina [46]

Answer:

d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces

Explanation:

The aim of the question is to select the right condition for that would increases the rate of the reaction.

a) use a large sized piece of the solid Cu

This option is wrong. Reducing the surface area decreases the reaction rate.

b) lower the initial temperature below 25 °C for the liquid reactant, HNO3

Hugher temperatures leads to faster reactions hence this option is wrong.

c) use a 0.5 M HNO3 instead of 2.0 M HNO3

Higher concentration leads to increased rate of reaction. Hence this option is wrong.

d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces

This leads to an increased surface area of the reactants, which leads to an increased rate of the reaction. This is the correct option.

B

When frequency increases, as does the energy, but wavelength decreases. It also works vise versa; if wavelength were to increase, its frequency and energy will decrease.

A scientist finds that one volume of an unknown gas X combines with two volumes of another gas Y to form two volumes of a new ga

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Gas X

Explanation:

The given reaction can be written in the form of chemical equation as shown below as:

$X+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2$

According to law of conservation of mass, the moles of each substance in the reaction must be equal on both reactant and product side.

Also, the question asks for the gas which is diatomic. $XY_2$ cannot be diatomic as the formula contains 3 atoms.

Between gas X and gas Y , <u>X has to be diatomic for the reaction to balance </u>as:

$X_2+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2$

How many grams of silver chromate will precipitate when 150. mL of 0.500 M silver nitrate are added to 100. mL of 0.400 M potass

sergiy2304 [10]

The amount of silver chromate that precipitates after addition of solutions is 12.44 g.

Number of moles:

The number of moles is the product of molarity of the solution and its volume. The formula is expressed as:

Moles = Molarity x Volume

Calculations:

Step 1:

The molecular formula of silver nitrate is AgNO3. The number of moles of silver nitrate is calculated as:

Moles of AgNO3 = 0.500 M x (150/1000) L

= 0.075 mol

Step 2:

The molecular formula potassium chromate is K2CrO4. The number of moles of potassium chromate is calculated as:

Moles of K2CrO4 = 0.400 M x (100/1000) L

= 0.04 mol

Step 3:

The balanced chemical reaction between AgNO3 and K2CrO4 is:

2AgNO3 + K2CrO4 -----> Ag2CrO4 + 2KNO3

The required number of moles of K2CrO4 = 0.075 mol/2 = 0.0375 mol

The given number of moles of K2CrO4 (0.04 mol) is more than the required number of moles (0.0375 mol). Therefore, AgNO3 is the limiting reagent.

Step 4:

According to the reaction, the molar ratio between AgNO3 and Ag2CrO4 is 2:1. Hence, the number of moles of Ag2CrO4 formed is 0.0375 mol.

The molar mass of Ag2CrO4 is 331.74 g/mol.

The mass of Ag2CrO4 is calculated as:

Mass = 0.0375 mol x 331.74 g/mol

= 12.44 g
