John has to hit a bottle with a ball to win a prize. He throws a 0.4 kg ball with a velocity of 18 m/s. It hits a 0.2 kg bottle,

and the bottle flies forward at 25 m/s. How fast is the ball traveling after hitting the bottle?

One can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. The total momentum prior to the collision must be equivalent to the total momentum after the collision, so we have:

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1 + m2v2

Here, m1 is 0.4 Kg that is the mass of the ball, u1 is 18 m/s that is the initial velocity of the ball, m2 is 0.2 Kg that is the mass of the bottle, and u2 is 0 that is the initial velocity of the bottle.

v1 is the final velocity of the ball, which is to be determined, and v2 is 25 m/s that is the final velocity of the bottle.

Substituting and rearranging the equation, one can find the final velocity of the ball:

v1 = m1u1 - m2v2 / m1 = (0.4 kg) (18 m/s) - (0.2 Kg) (25 m/s) / 0.4 Kg = 5.5 m/s.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

        m_{1} = 0.4 kg,     u_{1} = 18 m/s

       u_{2} = 0 m/s,      v_{2} = 25 m/s

        m_{2} = 0.2 kg,    v_{2} = ?        

As we know that, according to the law of conservation of momentum

       m_{1}u_{1} + m_{2}u_{2} = m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}V_{2}

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

     m_{1}u_{1} + m_{2}u_{2} = m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}V_{2}

0.4 kg \times 18 m/s + 0.2 \times 0 m/s = 0.4 \times v_{1} + 0.2 \times 25 m/s

          7.2 = 0.4v_{3} + 5.0

            v_{3} = 5.5 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the ball traveling at a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

1) The elements have filled valence levels.

Explanation:

Since they have filled valence levels, they're stable and don't need to electrons to fill their valence shells since they're already full.

2) False, They do have electrons

3) False, He does have only one electron shell, but going down the periods, every next element have one more electron shell than a preceding one has.

4)False, they're actually the smallest atoms of their respective period

use the equation 2C4H10 +13O2-->8CO2+10H2O to find how many moles of oxygen would react with .425 mol C4H10
antoniya [11.8K]
2C4H10 + 13O2  →  8CO2 + 10H2O Since the equation is balanced, we can set up a proportion: 13 moles of O2 react with 2 moles of C4H10x  moles of O2 react with 0.425 moles of C4H10 13 → 2x → 0.425 x = 13 * 0.425 / 2 = 2.7625 <span>2.7625 moles of O2 react with 0.425 moles of C4H10</span>
