What determines the path that an object in projectile motion follows?

Chemistry

mafiozo [28]3 years ago

Answer:

gravity and air resistance

Explanation:

As the ball is moving in projectile motion it has to overcome the Earth’s force of gravity which is acting on the ball and pulling it downwards. Also the ball has to overcome the resistance offered by the air particles which tends to pull the ball in the backward direction opposing its forward motion.

Projectile is like a cannon shooting a ball so it will be in "free fall"

While in free fall you are subject to gravity pulling the ball down.

Also since it's flying through the air there is air resistance.


So GRAVITY AND AIR RESISTANCE

How many moles of oxygen atoms are in 7.9E-1 moles of CO_2
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The number of moles of O atom in (7.9\times10^{-1}) mol of CO_{2} = 1.6

Explanation:

1 molecule of CO_{2} contains 2 atoms of O

So, (6.023\times 10^{23}) molecules of  CO_{2} contains (2\times6.023\times10^{23}) atoms of O.

We know that 1 mol of an atom/molecule/ion represents 6.023\times10^{23} numbers of atoms/molecules/ions respectively.

So, (6.023\times 10^{23}) molecules of  CO_{2} is equal to 1 mol of CO_{2}.

(2\times6.023\times10^{23}) atoms of O is equal to 2 moles of O atom.

Hence, 1 mol of CO_{2} contains 2 moles of O atom.

Therefore, (7.9\times10^{-1}) mol of CO_{2} contains (2\times7.9\times10^{-1}) moles of O atom or 1.6 moles of O atom.

The law of conservation of mass is applicable to
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that in a closed system, mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical or physical reaction. The law of conservation of mass is applied whenever you balance a chemical equation.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

The law of conservation of mass is useful for a number of calculations and can be used to solve for unknown masses, such the amount of gas consumed or produced during a reaction.

It is applicable in a chemical when the the mass of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to  the mass of the reactants.

But it is not applicable in a nuclear fusion as some of the mass is generated as energy.

Green plants use light from the Sun to drive photosynthesis, a chemical reaction in which liquid water and carbon dioxide gas fo
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

                    1.8 moles of O₂

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation for said double replacement (photosynthesis) reaction is as follow;

                           6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

According to balance chemical equation,

                 6 moles of O₂ are produced by  =  6 moles of CO₂

So,

                1.8 moles of O₂ will be produced by  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  1.8 mol × 6 mol / 6 mol

                     X =  1.8 moles of O₂

Stoichiometric problems in which moles are given and moles or other reactant or product asked are the simplest problems. One should only write the balanced chemical equation and perform above method to find the required moles.

What’s the ionic equation for lithium + water
disa [49]

Answer:

2Li(s) + 2H₂O(ℓ) ⟶ 2Li⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) + H₂(g)

Explanation:

An ionic equation uses the symbols (aq) [aqueous] to indicate molecules and ions that are soluble in water, (s) [solid] to indicate insoluble solids, and (ℓ) to indicate substances (usually water) in the liquid state.

In this reaction, solid lithium reacts with liquid water to form soluble lithium hydroxide and gaseous hydrogen .

1. Molecular equation

2Li(s) + 2H₂O(ℓ) ⟶ 2LiOH(aq) + H₂(g)

2. Ionic equation

Lithium hydroxide is a soluble ionic compound, so we write it as hydrated ions.

2Li(s) + 2H₂O(ℓ) ⟶ 2Li⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) + H₂(g)
