Answer:

69.7173 u

Explanation:

The abundance of the first isotope is =60.40%

So the abundance of the second isotope =100%-60.40%=39.6%

Atomic mass of first isotope = 68.9257

So the average atomic mass of the first isotope =68.9257×0.6040=41.6311 u

Atomic mass of the second isotope =70.9249 u

So average atomic mass of second isotope =70.9249×0.396=28.086

Now the average atomic mass =41.6311+28.086=69.7173 u

Answer:

average atomic mass is 69.7173 u

Explanation:

atomic mass m1 = 68.9257 u

atomic mass m2 = 70.9249 u

abundance one isotope = 60.40%

to find out

average atomic mass

solution

we know here average atomic mass formula that is

average atomic mass = sum of ( abundance × atomic mass )

from table we know Ga is 69.72 so abundance is 39.6

so

atomic mass = ( abundance 1 × m1 ) + ( abundance 2 × m2 ) /100

atomic mass = ( 60.40 × 68.9257 ) + ( 39.6 × 70.9249 ) /100

atomic mass = 69.7173

so average atomic mass is 69.7173 u

Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. The o

Reil [10]

The correct option is D.
Sound proofing is usually achieved by using materials that absorbed or reduce sounds. Different materials are used in sounding proofing and these differ in their abilities to absorb or reduce sounds. The coefficient of absorption of a material refers to that material ability to absorb sound. The higher the percentage of a material absorption coefficient, the better the material's ability to absorb sound. Thus, in the question given above, the material with 62% absorption coefficient have the greatest ability of the three materials to absorb sound effectively. <span />

Emmy is standing on a moving sidewalk that moves at +2 m/s. Suddenly, she realizes she might miss her flight, so begins to speed

likoan [24]

Answer:

Refer to the attachment for the diagram.

3.53 m/s.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the first derivative of velocity relative to time. In other words, the acceleration is the same as the slope (gradient) of the velocity-time graph. Let $t$ represents the time in seconds and $v$ the speed in meters-per-second.

For $0 < x \le 1$ :

Initial value of $v$ : $\rm 2\;m\cdot s^{-1}$ at $t = 0$ ; Hence the point on the segment: $(0, 2)$ .
Slope of the velocity-time graph is the same as acceleration during that period of time: $\rm 2\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ .
Find the equation of this segment in slope-point form: $v - 2 = 2 (t - 0) \implies v = 2t + 2, \quad 0 < t \le 1$ .

Similarly, for $1 < x \le 2$ :

Initial value of $v$ is the same as the final value of $v$ in the previous equation at $t = 1$ : $t = 2t + 2 = 4$ ; Hence the point on the segment: $(1, 4)$ .
Slope of the velocity-time graph is the same as acceleration during that period of time: $\rm 1\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ .

Find the equation of this segment in slope-point form: $v - 4 = (t - 1) \implies v = t + 3 \quad 1 < t \le 2$ .

For $2 < x \le 3$ :

Initial value of $v$ is the same as the final value of $v$ in the previous equation at $t = 2$ : $t = t + 3 = 5$ ; Hence the point on the segment: $(2, 5)$ .
Slope of the velocity-time graph is the same as acceleration during that period of time: $\rm 0\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ . There's no acceleration. In other words, the velocity is constant.
Find the equation of this segment in slope-point form: $v - 5 = 0 (t - 2) \implies v = 5 \quad 2 < t \le 3$ .

For $3 < x \le 4$ :

Initial value of $v$ is the same as the final value of $v$ in the previous equation at $t = 3$ : $t = 5$ ; Hence the point on the segment: $(3, 5)$ .
Slope of the velocity-time graph is the same as acceleration during that period of time: $\rm -3\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ . In other words, the velocity is decreasing.
Find the equation of this segment in slope-point form: $v - 5 = -3 (t - 3) \implies v = -3t + 14 \quad 3 < t \le 4$ .

For $4 < x \le 5$ :

Initial value of $v$ is the same as the final value of $v$ in the previous equation at $t = 4$ : $t = -3t + 14$ ; Hence the point on the segment: $(4, 2)$ .
Slope of the velocity-time graph is the same as acceleration during that period of time: $\rm 0\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ . In other words, the velocity is once again constant.
Find the equation of this segment in slope-point form: $v - 2 = 0 (t - 4) \implies v = 2\quad 4 < t \le 5$ .

$t = \rm 3.49\;s$ is in the interval $3 < x \le 4$ . Apply the equation for that interval: $v = -3t +14 = \rm 3.53\; m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

The maximum force that a grocery bag can withstand without ripping is 250 n. Suppose that the bag is filled with 20 kg of grocer

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Groceries stay in the bag.

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum force = 250 N

Bag filled with = 20 kg

Lifted acceleration = $5.0\ m/s^2$

Solution:

We need to calculate the exerted force on the grocery bag by using Newton's second law.

$F = ma$

Where:

F = Exerted force on the object.

m = Mass of the object in kg

a = Acceleration of the object in $m/s^2$

Now, we substitute m = 20 kg and a = $5.0\ m/s^2$ in Newton's second law,

$F = 20\times 5.0$

$F = 100\ m/s^2$

Since, the exerted force on the bag is less than 250 N, the groceries will stay in the bag.

A mass of 1 slug, when attached to a spring, stretches it 2 feet and then comes to rest in the equilibrium position. Starting at

Vesna [10]

Answer:

$Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t$

Explanation:

Given that m= 1 slug and given that spring stretches by 2 feet so we can find the spring constant K

mg=k x

1 x 32= k x 2

K=16

And also give that damping force is 8 times the velocity so damping constant C=8.

We know that equation for spring mass system

my''+Cy'+Ky=F

Now by putting the values

1 y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t ----(1)

The general solution of equation Y=CF+IP

Lets assume that at steady state the equation of y will be

y(IP)=A cos 4t+ B sin 4t

To find the constant A and B we have to compare this equation with equation 1.

Now find y' and y" (by differentiate with respect to t)

y'= -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t

y"=-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t

Now put the values of y" , y' and y in equation 1

1 (-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t)+8( -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t)+16(A cos 4t+ B sin 4t)=6sin4 t

So by comparing the coefficient both sides

-16A+32B+16A=0 So B=0

-16 B-32 A+16B=6 So A=-3/16

y=-3/16 cos 4t

Now to find the CF of differential equation 1

y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t

Homogeneous version of above equation

$m^2+8m+16=0$

So $CF =(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}$

So the general equation

$Y=(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}-3/16 cos 4t$

Given that t=0 Y=0 So

$C_1=\dfrac{3}{16}$

t=0 Y'=0 So

$C_2 =\dfrac{3}{8}$

$Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t$

The above equation is the general equation for motion.
